Rappers Make Obama Skip a Beat!

In the arsenal of the culture wars, rap music remains somewhat radioactive -- and Barack Obama now finds himself exposed.
Avowed Obama supporter Ludacris on Wednesday released a freewheeling song called "Politics" in which he repeatedly praised the candidate -- as well as himself, for having found a home on the senator's iPod. But the Atlanta rapper also used a derogatory term to describe Hillary Clinton; asserted that John McCain should be in a wheelchair, not the White House; and declared that President Bush "is mentally handicapped."
Gee, thanks for the endorsement, Luda!
Some of the Democrat's most vocal (literally) supporters are sticking him with a hip-hop dilemma: how to respond to an art form that has a long history as a cultural wedge issue but whose fans and wildly unpredictable practitioners are a part of his base?
Rappers tend to love him -- or at least the basic idea of a black man in the White House. Pro-Obama rap songs and references are proliferating at a staggering clip, and online video endorsements are arriving just as quickly, from "Yes We Can" splicer Will.I.Am and hip-hop impresario Sean "Diddy" Combs on down.
But Obama can't love them back -- at least not unconditionally, given the music's continuing lightning-rod status. This is a man, after all, who has worked tirelessly to make inroads among older white voters, many of whom have a deep aversion to hip-hop.

Better make some more room for another problem person under that bus!

But folks, can't yall see that this is the kind of people that follow this guy around. Can't yall see that he is surrounded by this kink of trash? Can't yall see that Obama is admired by people like this?
A bunch of immature guys running around with their pants down by their knees, with guns mind you, threatening people all the time rhyming made up language is what Obama likes?
He said he would bring change. Well here is some of it. Reparations aren't far behind.
