Painting the White House black?

Question

Recently, rapper Ludacris recorded a rap in support of Barack Obama and one of the lyrics were "We'll paint the White House black"

Is this statement racist??

Before you answer, consider this....what if Toby Keith or another country music star came out with a song that said "We're going to keep the White House white?"

What would be the difference between Ludacris' rap and the hypothetical Toby Keith song?

Would there be a difference at all?

Answer 1

Honestly this is the dumbest question.Do you know who is running.This is the first African American president that many people believe will make a change.Ludacris is only saying that this is a break through in history.
