Q: Are you endorsing a particular candidate in the '08 election?
A: No, but I like Hillary. I think she was already our President once. [Laughs].
That's funny stuff. No word on who Kanye West is endorsing . Someone who cares about black people. Probably a Democrat. Could be Hillary, John Edwards, Mike Gravel. Hell, a lot of people would seem to fit the bill on that one. As for Barack Obama, he's doing just fine in terms of the hip-hop vote. Asian American rapper Jin has even written a song about him, "Open Letter 2 Obama."
"B-Rock," as he's known in some circles, has also graced the cover of Vibe, a place you won't see Hillary any time soon. What does it all mean? You guessed it. Slow news day. Now let's play count the racist remarks left in the comment section!

5. Even thinking of Hillary as Commander-in-chief of our great armed forces is enough to cause one to barf. We are in real trouble when people are seriously thinking of making that happen.

6. as a black man i think obama,knows he does not have a chance at being voted president of this here country,much less winning the democratic nomination, i think he should later, push his support towards dodd when its comes to crunch time,certainly he knows the majority of americans with ideals, cannot see a black president at this time,with blacks being third in number as far as our population goes, id rather see someone from the majority in power,like dodd, who is diverse in the way of being bilingual.barak would have a better chance in "08" of being a starting quarter back for the miami dolphins...

7. It is ridiculous that people still can't make decisions on who would be a good candidate without resorting to the,"He won't win because he's black". That should have absolutely nothing to do with it. Look at his views, aren't some of his ideas something as Americans we want for people. Dont we want our troops home safely? Don't we want a better tax system? Look at who's in charge now, the man can't speak properly on t.v. without stumbling, creating his own words, or confusing the hell out of you. As a young adult, I plan on voting this upcoming election and when I do..It wont be based on color..Im looking at the FACTS. It's 2007 almost 2008, Look past it.
