What does this vote do exactly?
I already voted anyways but what does president of MTV Music mean?

I think that  is important Michael to be on top of all lists related to music, because it is the artist that there is more complex and this is fact.

Regardless of all, Michael could be very happy with all the honors and achievements he can get.

Being elected president of music think it's an honor, huh? MTV is an influential network. Maybe we win a special about Michael??

Voting ends today ... and Michael, may be happy with the result:

Michael Jackson: 57%
Elvis Prestley: 32%

Thanks, Michael's fans, you can vote until 00:00

Hi - I saw that there is a petition to get Michael's name reinstated on the vanguard award that had been renamed the Michael Jackson Music Video Award. If an elementary school can remove the boards from his name MTV can do what is right an reinstate that award. Please spread the word. Blessings

The Vanguard award was derived as note to achievement in video  music. It had been given to many musicians and directors for their influence in the music culture. In the beginning, it was named the Video Vanguard Award, then the Michael Jackson Music Video  Award in 2001. In 2003, after Michael Jackson was accused a crime, the video award was renamed the Lifetime Achievement Award. in 2005, Michael Jackson was exonerated by a jury of his peers with a NOT GUILTY verdict. The award was never renamed in the honor to Michael Jackson since. Since Michael Jackson was determined NOT GUILTY, means he is INNOCENT and his name should be restored.

The Vanguard award is an achievement musicians strive to obtain. It is recognition for worldwide cultural influence in the music domain. Michael Jackson remains the most awarded musician of all time with over 380 awards throughout his career, some 12 category awards were given to Michael Jackson many times over. Michael Jackson was awarded his name on the award due to his worldwide influence to musicians without any age boundary and his achievements in music entertainment. Michael Jackson to this day remains a highly respected individual in the music world.

It is time that Michael Jackson's name is restored on the Video Vanguard Award. When Michael Jackson was exonerated to criminal charges, his innocence should remain intact worldwide. Possbily due to media influence, his name remains off the award. There is no doubt amongst the musical community that Michael Jackson's legacy is in part his music and that over 40 years, he is still the most influential performer of all time. No other musician has been able to achieve his status ever or since. His music continues to influence all ages and will continue to do so in the future. If this is not lifetime achievement, what is?

We the undersigned ask MTV to reinstate Michael Jackson's name to the Video Vanguard Award. We recognize it was given to him as his lifetime achievement unmatched to any other and as his inspiration remains worldwide. We believe it is time MTV honors Michael Jackson once more.

We apologize for the typo in this petition, petition spot does not allow us to edit existing text.
The Michael Jackson Vanguard Award was first presented in 1991
instead of 2001. Prior to that MTV handed out this award and named it the Video Vanguard Award, and on occasions called it
the Lifetime Achievement Award .

1477 votes - more needed, where are the MJ fans??
