With the presidential election less than two weeks away, Weekender wanted to find out which celebrities you would like to see not endorse candidates, but take up a campaign of their own: Krist Novoselic, the former Nirvana bassist, with aspirations of joining the U.S. Senate? Jello Biafra, the Dead Kennedy’s frontman who has run for mayor of San Francisco? David Cross? Michael Moore? Over the next few weeks, Weekender will feature NIU students and their choices for a Hollywood White House.
