That's just wrong. A healthy male shouldn't be given special treatment. LisaL Nov 2012 #2

Imagine if Usher had, instead, actually waited in line (no on ewould mess with him. that's what body guards are for), taken his twitter pictures, posed with fans, and made it "a thing" about how long lines at polls are an unnecessary burden to voters. He could have made a lot of fans happy, too.

Voters having to stand in long lines is wrong too.

He obviously believes he is special. Too bad.
