Well, I believe Barack Obama was fighting for an endorsement from Detroit’s quote unquote “Hip Hop” Mayor, Kwame Kilpatrick. However, after the text message scandal, I think Barack has reconsidered. I’m not sure if the Mayor realized what type of spotlight he was under. I’m not one to make a joke out of a Black man in the spotlight because there is already enough of that going on in the media in general. I will just say this, there are people that loved his personality:
And there are some who didn’t like his flashy ways, and as a result, they couldn’t wait to get him in the spotlight:
The only way I see him coming out of this one is if he blames it on Hip Hop music. Seriously, it seems to work for everybody else that finds themselves up against the wall and looking for a scapegoat… But only time will tell if this storm will pass, but for all I know he could of resigned already. Will high profile individuals learn that the public build’s you up very quickly, and they can’t wait to see you fall even faster?
I live in Spain, and I don’t watch TV, and so I can never quite understand what is going on there. Can’t understand why they hate Hillary, can’t get what makes them run after Obama. For some time I had been reading the Herald Tribune which is published by the New York Times and the Washington Post together; but yesterday I went to Fox News. No way.

people hate hillary because she, like Slick Willy, is a liar. They lie so well it is a part of there persona. They have been lying all their life because it got them where they are today…remember when Slick Willy looked into the camera and said “Ahh did not have sex with that woman, Monika Lewinsky.” They are totally absorbed and power hungry. On the other hand, the alternative to her looks even bleaker…what we need is a good old fashionied revolution because NON of the candidates are worth voting for.
