Can we please stop exaggerating the importance of MJ. I just wonder how much homework went undone because of the distraction he's provided young minds. I know, somewhere theres a little girl who gets straight A's and loves MJ too. Go out into the throngs and ask them if they can name a single Nobel Prize winner. Think maybe there are better role models?

Of course America needs a Minister of Culture. Maybe then they will start to understand and appreciate other cultures also. Stop the navel gazing! For a country and "culture" that is barely 200+ years old Americans think that they are the originators of everything. Quincy is right about being the most invasive and strongest cultures on the planet but it is not the only one. Once the new generation understands where their roots are then they can understand where the rest of the world is in relation to them. Canadian culture? Who cares? Typical, so typical of the uninformed!!

U.S. does not need a "culture secretary". our culture, from music to film, from lifestyle to fashion.... highly sought after and copied throughout the world.... all without a culture czar or secretary. only countries without much of a culture have a culture minister. canada has a culture ministry, what is canadian culture? who cares!? LOL

The culture of America is business. We already have a secretary of commerce. Mr Jones should realize that. He's made a bundle that way. I associate him anyway with the death of the big bands. IF Obama does anything that appears to show preference for "people of color" he will be actually crucified, which I'm sure he knows, but it seems the Afro-American elite do not all yet. I might add, too, that like feminism and Zionism to their respective constituents, the black power movement IMHO also did considerable harm to their acceptance in the wider population.
