    CNN Heroes 2011 - I want to vote for Kid Rock!
    rocknrich says (07 Dec '11)

    With CNN having a "Heroes 2011" gig this Sunday, I was happy to hear that Kid Rock will be presenting an award and performing his hit single "Care" before his small gig in Malibu on Sunday. But, what I can't let settle is that with all that Kid Rock does and has done, making great music, raising money for charities, making the trek multiple times to see and perform for the troops oversees, speaking out and rallying support for his native Detroit, REALLY being there for his fans, and so many other things you all are in no doubt aware of, why isn't he one of the nominees for Hero of the Year? I say CNN, add an icon on your web page for Kid Rock and let the people vote for the "real deal" - My Hero of the Year - KID ROCK!

Cool comments. Thanks for sharing. I think a hero is made from the inside. If you know Mr. Ritchie like I think I do, then you could see one who truly keeps true to himself. I think this becomes a link for his 'being true to others'. That to me is a hero that has earned a rightful place in many hearts, minds, and souls. Rock star aside. On another note, it's really cool how much airtime KR is getting on CNN each time they run ads for the Hero event. His song "Care" is playing as the ads music. A heroes doing I'm sure. :)

I believe the Hero's award is for the "non-celebrity" persons who have in some way done a heroic act.
