Yes, it seems to be true. Foo Fighter Dave Grohl claims he's running for president because a) he really cares about America, b) he is stoned out of his gourd, and c) he has a world tour to promote.

But when you think about it, this isn't so crazy. Grohl is attractive in a hairy kind of way, and he certainly appeals to the coveted youth demographic. He's also got a bootstrapping personal history: he went from rural blue-collar Virginia to a life of privilege and success. So basically he is the grunge John Edwards!

In an exclusive with Harp magazine, Grohl unveiled his candidacy and talked about what it was like to be the kid who "didn't have enough money to be a member of the neighborhood swimming pool."

Q: So how did you keep cool in the summertime?

A: You know what I did? I turned on the hose and I drank from it. I want America to come back to that place where we're all drinking from the hose.

And if he can figure out a way to fill the hose with beer and get everyone into Warped, that dude will totally win.
