HAMILTON -- Butler County Sheriff Richard Jones might find himself in the national spotlight -- with Jon Stewart.

“The Daily Show” wants to do a story on immigration, so they called Jones -- who has been very out spoken on the issue.

As most people know, the show often takes an issue, and puts its own humor and spin on it, often times even mocking it.

Jones said that as long as he can talk about his view on illegal immigration in front of a national audience, he's in.

"This isn't for sissies. You got to be able to take it. President Bush has been on there, Kerry was on there and the people that are too serious about themselves,” Jones said. "Life’s too short and if it brings attention to it, even though it's in a comedy way, it still brings attention to it."

Jones said it's not a done deal yet. He said the show is choosing between him and two other law enforcement officers.
