Joan Jett, celebrated far and wide for her trip to Afghanistan to support the troops, is now supporting a candidate for President: Howard Dean.
A slate of convention delegate candidates from New York made public by the Dean presidential campaign includes Joan Jett, whose 1981 song with the Blackhearts “I Love Rock-n-Roll” has become a rock anthem.
“This whole process intrigues me,” Jett said. “I’m stepping into new territory. It’s very exciting.”
If she is elected during New York’s March 2 presidential primary, Jett would go to the Democratic National Convention next summer as a Dean delegate.
