New Article on Lew Rockwell Today

By Mike in Tokyo Rogers

I will have a new article on Lew Rockwell today. It is not about Social Media, twitter, Google, Yahoo, Youtube, or blogging or anything like that. It is a comparison between Japanese and American politics and society.

I wrote an article previously that railed on former teenybopper pop star and actress Junko Mihara running for political office in Japan. I thought she had no chance of winning. Well yeah, the polls said she had no chance to win.

But guess what? She won and that is the seed for the entire article.

This situation is much like American Politics. Please read the article and see if you agree.

The article is here.

My Latest Article on Lew Rockwell: Junko Mihara Runs For Political Office in Japan...

By Mike in Tokyo Rogers

Once again, today, just for a moment, I'd like to ask that you good folks take a moment away from the Social Marketing and the advertising, PR and promotion.  Drop the Twitter, blogs, video blogs, Mixi, Facebook, Pick and anything on the Internet in general for just 5 minutes.

Here I always blog about Marketing Japan and how to do intelligent business in this country... But, you need to understand what kind of animal Japan really is if you are to do business here. That's the reason for today's blog.

Former J-Pop Idol singer Junko Mihara is running for political office in Japan

That's why today I'd like to ask you to take a short trip with me to see just how wacky Japan can be.... I love Japan!

Later today, on Lew Rockwell, my latest article about Japan will be published, but here's a chance for you to read it first.

A famous J-Pop Idol, former teenybopper singer and former actress named Junko Mihara is running for political office and this is absolutely hilarious. It is even more hilarious when you consider the fact that these people are dead serious about their business. You just cannot make this stuff up!

I promise that this will have you laughing out loud. It did me.
