A Willing Dupe

A former American basketball player, who is waging the fight to avoid fading into obscurity, tried to make himself relevant again (and I am sure he thought more marketable) by playing diplomat with the murderous dictator of North Korea. It is unfortunate that Dennis Rodman was so deluded. How would you like your brand represented by the visage of someone who looks like a carnival freak and will now forever be known as a friend of dictators? Perhaps Rodman would have been better off if he had stuck to sport and not attempted to enter the realm of diplomacy. He obviously neither helped himself nor the long-suffering North Korean people and certainly did not advance peace.
