The Mayer Debate: Ron Paul or RuPaul?

John Mayer spent the night before his 30th birthday having dinner with a few friends and arguing about the Constitution, presidential hopeful Ron Paul and drag queen RuPaul. Just your typical birthday conversation.



The pop star -- without his new woman, Minka Kelly -- celebrated with friends Sherrod Small (his "Chocolate Rain" co-star), comedian Jeffrey Ross, and "Live Free or Die Hard" star/Drew Barrymore's rumored new beau, Justin Long.

In typical Mayer fashion, he launched into a fake tirade about the merits of Ron Paul and how he avidly reads the Constitution. Somehow, Condoleezza Rice comes into the chat, and a homeless man calls him "John Paul."

You never know what's going to go down when John Mayer is around.

19. I think that they were just drunk... but John Mayer is right about two things in life. Right about nailing Jessica Simpson, and right about Ron Paul.

Ron Paul knows the Constitution. You should too.

20. Go John Mayer and Go Ron Paul!

While Mayer was trashed, it looks like his is for Dr. Paul because Paul is the ONLY candidate for real change! Not fake Hillary change (i.e. continued war) or Rudy change (i.e. expanded war).

Ron Paul 2008!

Endorse him Mr. Mayer!!! And contribute $$$.

23. You people need to wake up. People in the US know more about Britney Spears day to day activities than they do about what the government is doing to their civil liberties, how the government is manipulating them with fear and how they are being screwed by a central bank controlled by private interests, the Federal Reserve.

With a daily diet of Britney, Lindsay and Paris your brains have become dangerously obese and incapable of intelligent inquiry or discussion.

25. Ron Paul is killing everyone else in the Straw Polls so far withy 17 first place finishes and the mainstream media does not mention this. Take 2 minutes and ask yourself why this is!!!!

Here is Ron paul vs each other candidates so far in the Straw Polls

Ron Paul's Head-to-Head Records (Win-Lose-Tie):
Ron Paul v. Rudy Giuliani 31-5-0
Ron Paul v. Mitt Romney 24-12-0
Ron Paul v. Fred Thompson 21-14-0

Ron Paul v. Mike Huckabee 30-4-1
Ron Paul v. Sam Brownback 32-2-1
Ron Paul v. Tom Tancredo 33-1-0

26. Kim (comment #23) considers John Mayer an "uneducated celeb" who "knows nothing about the constitution or the government". The guy said he reads the Constitution, which is the legal definition and limit of our government, but Kim thinks he's uneducated in matters of government. Would you rather he promote the totalitarianism of our current administration or socialism of a Clinton/Obama administration. There is no Constitutional Kool Aid.

People like Kim are the real problem.

28. A "fake tirade"? Seems to me like John is genuinely stoked about him.

Now let's get HIM to write a song for the Paul campaign!!

29. First of all HaterOne, Black people (from Africa) enslaved their own first (in Africa) then sold their slaves... White people aren't the problem, humans are.

About Ron Paul: I don't know anyone who wouldn't like to pay less taxes (on their labor) and have more personal freedom (for the individual, not classes of people, races...etc.). Ron Paul is not a nut-job, wacko, isolationist; he is a truth-seeker and ray of light for our quickly crumbling country.

If you wonder what it will be like to be in a massive recession... just imagine all of you who only get your news from TMZ et al., you won't be able to buy any of those "hot" designer clothes and drink fancy drinks at swanky hotels. You'll be waiting in line for a gallon of milk or loaf of bread.

30. Bet they had a lot of fun coming up with that little charade. Anyone who thinks that wasn't staged is a sucker. Happy birthday, John.
