What do you all think about the Barack Obama 2008 election...?

Question

Do you feel that he has "turned his back" on the hip-hop community?

any other thoughts?

Answer 1

I love Barack but he is so in it to win it that he will turn his back to ANYONE if it seems you won't help him realize his dream. Look at the press release he put out about John Edwards after the scandal and what he did to his church. If he found out his wife would jeopardize his chances, he would probably divorce her too.

Answer 2

I think that barack obama is doing his best to reach every type of person, but  I also think that Barack has realized that there are different types of people who he needs to reach out to.  Also people like Kanye West and Common are helping Barack because they're from Chicago.  He hasn't turned his back on the hip hop community.

Answer 3

I think he should win

Answer 4

I think that Barack Obama is a great thing that happened because he is changing history, views and setting out to be a role model for many including all the African American kids that wanted to be president when they were younger. He is showing that it is possible. I do not feel that he has turned his back on the hip hop community at all. Ludacris has a song about him and is supporting him. B.O. stated that Ludacris was one of his favorite rappers. THEN APT has their Obama Milli Remix which is cool. I think that Obama is doing his best to reach out to as many as he can..............

Answer 5

To be honest he scares me. i hear so much and dont know what or who to believe in.
