Jobs for Kwame: MLive readers want to see Kilpatrick on reality TV after prison

Former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick should be a free man some time next month --  at least until his federal case is resolved -- and he likely will be looking for a job to help him pay down his $860,000 debt to the city.

While his former PR doctor suggested Kilpatrick could make a living on the motivational speaker circuit, we doubt many people will be willing to hear advice on how to end up in prison. So we asked MLive readers to spitball some job ideas...
Reality TV Star: "Maybe a reality tv show??" suggested truthseeker48433. "I am sure enough idiots would tune in to watch it to fill his pockets nicely."

Media Darling: "To be honest, Detroiters should hope he gets a job so he can pay the city back," wrote MartinMayhewfan. "Let him get a reality show, seels lots of books, etc. I know a lot of people would like to see him fail at any and everything he puts his hands to do now, but him making money is something he NEEDS to do if he is to fulfil the terms of the agreement he made with the prosecutor."

Carny: "How about a job where we can dunk him in a tank full of hot water and all cash will be donated to local charity?" quipped nojames.

Preacher: "It's fairly obvious he'll attempt life as a mega-preacher for the newly created Church of the Revelation - it's in his book title and the man needs a pulpit to spew his message of victimhood," wrote ghostlimb. "Sad thing is, the congregation will fill the seats."
Several readers suggested Kilpatrick could have a future in reality TV. And hey, if The Situation can pull in $3 million for acting like an ass on camera, Kwame can surely parlay his gift for gab into a lucrative contract.

And there's clearly a market. For every one of our readers that complains about our continuing Kilpatrick coverage, a thousand others click on any headline with his name in it, indicating that the region remains fascinated with Detroit's fallen son.

But if E! won't have him, we've got a few other job ideas for Kilpatrick to consider.
Party Planner: Looking for something discreet? Kilpatrick can organize a party so low-key that the uninvited will never be able to prove it happened. Allegedly. Need bodyguard protection? No problem. Dancers? You got it.

Job Finder: Kilpatrick may have a hard time finding a job, but he's certainly displayed a talent for finding jobs for others. Just ask his relatives.

Boyz II Men Tribute Artist: Kilpatrick could make a killing on the Detroit casino circuit by forming a Boyz II Men tribute group with Bobby Ferguson and whichever Milton brother gets out of prison first. We've already heard "It's so Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday," but we think "I'll Make Love to You" might be more his style.

Humorist: Kilpatrick inspired two Metro Detroit natives to launch the popular Texts from Last Night website, and we suggest he run with the idea and launch his own Sexts from Last Night site.
Any other bright ideas? Would you watch Kwame Kilpatrick on reality TV or are you to busy Keeping Up with the Kardashians?
