Now a JFK-like idol as FIFA president: It's David Beckham!
The Issue
Enough is enough. After decades of mediocre apparatchiks at the helm of the world football governing body, a radical change is needed. We, as fans, want an idol as FIFA president, someone we can look up to just as much as the captain of our favorite team. We want to admire him the way people admired John F. Kennedy back then: for his charisma, his competence, his integrity—and yes, for his pop star aura. Please, Sir David, stand for election as FIFA president and bring some light to our currently miserable existence as fans!
