Like most reality shows, American Idol is rigged.

From the beginning where bad singers are purposely allowed to see the judges so they could make fun of them, to the finals where they conveniently have tons of early footage of the top 12, even though over 60,000 singers supposedly enter.

Think about how conveniently blanced the winners and runner-ups are... as to not offend any particular viewing group of a particular race, age or gender...

Since an older white male won last year (coincidentally when AI raised their entry age limit), I think a younger person is due. So I think they've selected Jordin or Sanjaya to win this year... and I don't see them letting Sanjaya win, so it's Jordin all the way baby!!

And for you people who think their vote actually makes a difference just remember this famous quote from Joe Stalin... "The people who cast the votes don't matter, the people who count the votes do."
