According to a recent report, a slew of Black celebrities have not used their fame and fortune to support Barack Obama:

But neither Sean “Diddy” Combs nor Shawn “Jay Z” Carter has pitched in for the Illinois senator as of yet. Jay Z’s fiancée Beyonce Knowles has also remained silent……Neither has Spike Lee nor Denzel Washington. Also missing from Obama’s list of donors in the current election cycle is BET Chairman and Founder billionaire Robert L. Johnson.

Don’t expect Diddy to support Obama, the billionaire Clinton supporter, Ron Burkle, who paid for Magic Johnson’s Clinton support, owns most of the Sean Jean clothing line. SMH.

    If you make over a 100K a year there is no reason to vote democratic. Selfish but alot of rich people think that way.

  • Mz_Magnificent1

    Everything is politics baby…even football!!! I don’t know why folks are acting surprised…and didn’t we learn from last election who Diddy was rollin with back then and it ain’t Democrats either lol!

    Diddy is a straight Republican…and who cares what 50 is? He can’t vote anyways, so a pic that includes him is irrelevant.

  • http://www.idontgivearatsass.com Bahama Mama

    and just becaus ethey aren’t sayin nothing publicly doesn’t mean they don’t suppot him….bussiness is a funny world

  • me that’s who

    hello b’mizzle…..

    504, where is breakfast…..bacon and eggs please can you make that happen….

  • Dawn

    It doesn’t matter if they support Obama or not, they can support whoever they want he doesn’t need their help or anyone elses and but he does have Oprah on his side.

  • Reece

    Go to Huffingtonpost.com or politico.com. Denzel is on Obama’s donor list as is Jessica Biel and Scarlett Johannsen

  • Mona

    is it that they don’t support obama or they haven’t pubically made that known? …There’s a difference. Personally I don’t care who any of them support. It’s not going to influence me one way or the other.

    GO BAMA!!

  • N-Quizzy

    It’s a good thing that they are keeping their mouths closed b/c they have a big influence on the youth. Older people SOMETIMES (lol) make their own choices but someone voting for the first time might just go with the crowd, afraid that they will be attacked and not properly know how to defend themselves. It’s a good thing. Good for them. Leave the politics to the politicians.

    We all know black ppl dont have any unity!

  • TT

    Its good that Obama doesnt have theses people as supporters b/c as we have learned in our history that ordinary celebs can make his boat sink. Also he doesnt need their money he has OPRAH whose billions can make many rounds around their millions

  • Bronx Brawler

    He has raised over 100mil w/o their support if this is true. If he needs Beyonce’s support to win this country will continue in downward spiral. I have never seen an interview where she came off as a intelligent woman. Puff and Jay publicly supporting him would hurt him. Devils only respect them because they have the ability to generate money. They’re what devils depise most fairly young and rich hood blk dudes w/o formal education. Devils either had the right surnames or formal education to get their foot in the door.

  • me that’s who

    still not smelling any damn bacon lol….so i am out till something interesting pop off…..boring this morning….

  • Ttime

    I like Obama,but black people don’t have to support him just because he is black! Where is his platform and experience?

    Bush is leaving this country in the biggest mess of my lifetime–the deficit, the war, the recession, the housing crisis, healthcare crisis, social security in jeopardy (if I’m paying into it, I want my share when I come of age)…

    I personally feel that Obama needs a little more experience and that Hillary has that experience. Obama is young, he can run again in 8 yrs, after Hillary leaves the country in a better position…

  • stan-b-gone

    is there some unwritten rule that says all black people must support obama? not all of us vote solely on race. maybe his position on key issues don’t fall in line with what we want in the next president.

  • Mz_Magnificent1

    @ stan-b-gone…

    I feel you…I honestly think Obama is a VERY intelligent man but him for our next President? Naw, I don’t think so…

    Now before you all stone me lol…think about it. What will our next President be doing? He or She ;-) will be the clean-up guy…are they even going to get to act on half of the things they promised? HELL TO THE NO!!!

    Our current administration has fycked this country up beyond belief…and we will be paying for it dearly. Why waste such an intelligent individual this go ’round? I would rather have Obama act on the things he stands for than cleaning up someone else’s mess.

  • Mr O Dot

    soooooo, is this where yall are at or what? *still dont read posts anymore, just look for yall*

  • Mr O Dot

    hello all!

  • Mr O Dot

    wife, good idea…checkin that out now

  • Soul Cry

    Why do they have to support Obama…because he’s black? One should vote for a person because he stands for your values and has a direct plan to deal with issues of the time.

  • Stacey

    They do support Barack (J Z and Beyonce) Studies have shown that that type of celebrity endorsements are not good for the elections. Remember Vote or Die with Diddy. They DO support Barack they just know that he actually has a chance and don’t want republican’s using their (rappers) words or lyrics to focus attention to Barack. They know exactly what they are doing.

  • slimting

    LOL@Bahama Mama…that’s Steve Stoute. Google him. Big Bank. Hence the reason why he is hanging out with the rest of them fools.

    Denzel DOES support Obama. He said it already. I think there may be others but just because they don’t vocalize it or go on tour with his ass doesn’t mean they don’t support him.

  • KSH

    Even though I support Obama it doesn’t matter to me that these celebs don’t. Most of their lively hoods depend on them keeping their mouths closed and it ain’t like they have Oprah money…lol

  • b

    Just because they have not come out and publicly support him you have no idea what is going on behind closed doors. Sometimes it is not good for a politician to have too many celebrities backing him out front. But when you go into that booth you have no idea what is going on.

  • geezy

    This celebs are what’s wrong with the Black community. They are probably not registered voters anyway…..

  • Mr O Dot

    @ quizzy,

    yea…it more of a kidnapping than an imprisonment lol…so i damn sure hope i aint on probation! i’m tired of being forced to watch beyonce videos and run the treadmill next to Obama–>who then picks up and moves to another treadmill, because im black

  • Fit-n-Fab

    Why should they vote for him? Because he’s Black? Please! It’s a personal choice!

    Why are you voting for him? Prior to 2006, how many of you had heard of Obama? Honestly…

    “Obama isn’t going to win the election…he is set to win the Democratic nomination but lose the Presidency! The Republicans will control the white house again… Obama is a PATSY so the republicans can have an easy win…wake up!”

    (((((((((((((THIS IS SO TRUE)))))))))))))

    The Republicans hate the Clintons so much, they have united for Hillary to lose & the races are going as predicted. Once Obama wins the Democratic nomination, the majority of the country is going to vote Republican…Obama is being set up to lose…

  • Kimy

    How can Puffy support other people finacially when he has so many kids and baby mamas. Plus he is not as rich as he wants us to believe.

  • Proud Republican

    Vote like 50 Cent, he is a proud black republican and a big fan of George Bush.

    Our taxcuts benefit those who make their way in the world so any sensible black of means should look out for themselves.

  • Soul Cry

    OH…and let me tell you. NO ONE will enter they white house unless THEY let them into the white house. Believe that.

  • Mr O Dot

    @ kimy,

    yea, he is. lol. and richer

  • NYCSis

    are we sure any of them are even registered voters?

  • Rebel78

    @TT

    your gravie is scaring me LOL

    Aren’t most rich (making over $200k yrly) republicans anyway because of taxes.. Maybe they have accountants that have advised them how things will change for them tax (money in the pocket) wise if Obama is elected.

  • Mr O Dot

    LOLLLLL @ NYC

  • Taz

    I agree somewhat with mr mr and stacey….and the others that say it is a personal choice-good job.

    Fit n Fab, I feel Obama is being set up to, to lose I don’t know, but I do feel it is a set up. Something just isn’t right……..

  • MC

    Well I think if this is true, it could be for a number of reasons. Like me, I am waiting to make an informed decision. Too many people assume we as Black would automatically vote for him because he’s black and that is clearly not the case.

    Also, it could be because these celebrities are “friends” of the Clinton’s and they plan on using the Black Celebrites to get the young vote.

    However, Barack is like a “Cyclone” and slowly and surely he is pulling people in. He did it to Oprah, Doug Wilder (first Black Gov. of VA), people in Iowa, and probably New Hampshire. I’m just riding along and watching everything. The man is awsome.

    If these young celebrities do not support Obama then they are just caught up in the “Game” like Hillary and are not really concerned about make a positive change.

  • http://www.myspace.com/birdshu Bird

    Look not everyone is going to support Obama. Get over it man. I know Robert Johnson is not a supporter because I looked into planning an event for Barack here and Bob was my choice to host, but a quick check revealed that he is a Clinton supporter. That’s ok though. He’s still my baby daddy.

  • Traydayz

    The last I heard this was America and you can vote for whomever you want. One person one vote. Most rich people, black or white are gonna vote for the person that serves their interests.

  • John

    That don’t mean nothing!! People don’t need no celeb. to tell them who to vote for. It would be nice if we as black people would support each other but like I said, just because a few so called big names haven’t come out in support of the man, it don’t mean nothing. Obama seems to be doing alright anyway!!!

  • athena Free MJB’s impersonator

    I think the democratic party is the reason African-Americans are behind in America. They give all of these handouts, and make folks depend on the fn “nanny state”. Oh, those poor black people, they need help, let’s give them some help. Aww, they can’t do for themselves. Eff that! I know folks need help from time to time, but to depend on the state is an embarrassment.

    I am an independent. I would like to vote for Huckabee b/c he is for the Fair Tax. However, I will most likely vote for Obama, b/c damnit, even if he isn’t exactly along my political lines, haven’t we gone long enough without a person of color in power here? I’d love to see those other countries, and see their perspective of the US change as a result of him being in power.

  • Moreaces

    I am far from a Beyonce supporter, but for thoes of you who think girlfriend is dumb, Sorry but that is soooo far from the truth.

    NO ONE knows whom a person will vote for, because, when you vote, YOU VOTE ALONE !!!!!

    and do you really think that people in the 1-10% income bracket is necessarally gonna vote democrat(just because their Black)?!!? they’re gonna vote for the party that’ll keep their $$$$ in their pockets !! not always the case;most times !i reiterate: it ain’t nobody’s biz whom they support- it would be tabamount to committing professional suicide !!!!!!!!!!!!

  • minerva

    p.s. hit tje wrong key: tantamount

  • Kay

    Does it matter if they openly support him or not? Will that make other black people vote for him because they see they’re favorite rapper/actor/director doing it? Thats not a reason to vote for anybody… Thats being a follower. People should vote based on their own individual knowledge of the each other candidate.

  • optimusprime

    @Black English Rose

    i agree, i am left leaning so naturalyu i would vote democrats, but Collin Powell who is more of republican wouyld have received my vote for only one reason, making history… A black is a serious contender for the presidency, and we are not able to view the historical perspective here?

    Are we lost?

  • optimusprime

    @Bird even though i stronly want a majority of the black celebs to support him, i don’t think we should hate anyone who do not, it is political choice, america is a free country, as well as it is not shame that Rice is republican, i think we should leave those non obama supporters black celebs alone… what will make him a great candidate is to have have Oprah and Cloney, to have Deniro, Damon and Chris Rock… Barak is actually a great candidate because his followers are like rap concert crowd…. the majority of them are white lol

  • Mr O Dot (free the fake mjb)

    wizzo!

  • http://www.blackwhitekiss.com heidi

    SuAnyhow Barack Obama can win (view his blog at blackwhitekiss.com)…As long as he can keep secrete his intentions to increase taxes (for everyone who pays income taxes); advance racial preferences; federal legalization of homosexual ‘marriages’; sabotage the War on Terror/Islamofascists; welcome illegal immigrants/not enforce border laws; and promote corporate policies that reduce our international competitiveness.

  • optimusprime

    yeah that argument is getting old, let’s vote Hillary cause Obama will give the white house easily to the GOP, in fact the presidential election is difficult and Obama may or may not loose, but a black men being on a presidential ticket let alone at Number one? Come on wxho would pass that?

    The clinton were in office, did they do anything to reform the death penalty that kill our brothers? did they do anything to reform the justice system taht sends our brothers to prison when lil white kids get a little blame for the sherif? Like someone said, The victory of Barak during the primaries will make history like Robinson entering the MLB… For those in favour of Hillary, i say go for it, it’s your choice, but don’t try to foul us with this nonsense of Obama is set to loose the presidential election… when GOP’s analysts and pollster are afraid of his ability to attract independant voters who we all know are the one who really decide who is elected or not…

  • piercdbruh

    I saw Denzel Washington in an interview and he said something very interesting. He said that he looked at the candidates, and he knew who he liked, and he was going to keep it to himself. Wow! Maybe people like Johnny Depp, Sean Penn, and the like should take a cue from Denzel. Why should I care who an actor, musician, athlete, talk show host, or any other celebrity is endorsing? I mean “Reasonable Doubt” is still a classic album, but does that mean I should take political advice from Jay Z? I think “X” was one of the greatest biographical movies ever, so should I vote for whoever Spike Lee endorses? Entertainers should do what they do best. Make movies, music, shows, plays on the field etc. Here’s a novel idea, I’m going to vote for who I feel is going to lead the country in the direction I think it should go. I mean it is my vote right. Not Oprah’s or Diddy’s. Mine. Maybe more people should do the same.

  • Lady Architect

    sad to say…most celebs…once they are rich switch over to republican…to protect their finances…not my job to scrutinize them, but to people who say Barack Obama can’t win…just slow down a bit and stop being so negative…they said barack would only succeed with black voters, but he gained one of the hardest white states which is Iowa…also, the teenage voters tripled during this time and all those votes went to Obama…I’m not saying he will win or lose…I won’t predict this race until the actual results are in.

  • Go Obama

    Obama was sworn in on his BIBLE and NOT Quran

    An anonymous e-mail says Barack Obama took the oath of office for the U.S. Senate on a Koran, the holy book of Islam. We thought it would be odd if that were true, since Obama is a Christian. In fact, it is wrong.

    The e-mail also spells the book’s name “Kuran,” though usually it is spelled Koran or Quran.

    Two press reports from Obama’s swearing-in ceremony in January 2005 mention specifically that Obama took the oath of office by placing his hand on his own copy of the Bible. The Barack Obama campaign also confirmed that it was a Bible and that the book belonged to Obama. Vice President Dick Cheney, in his role as president of the Senate, administered the oath.

    After being raised outside of any particular faith tradition, Obama became a Christian in his mid 20s and is a member of Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago. (Obama gave what are arguably his most extended remarks on his faith at the “Call to Renewal” religious conference in 2006; read the speech here.)

    We suspect this false claim was inspired by the 2007 swearing-in of Rep. Keith Ellison, D-Minn., an American convert to Islam and the first Muslim elected to Congress. Ellison used a Koran that once belonged to Thomas Jefferson, borrowing the rare book from the Library of Congress.

    It goes without saying that Ellison is not Obama. And with its intent to inflame, we find the e-mail’s allegation not only false, but Pants-on-Fire wrong.

  • Dalia

    They don’t have to support Obama! It is their right not to. Just because they don’t support him doesn’t mean that other blacks will follow their lead.

    It has been state before: the days of the black herd mentality are OVER!

    It is total foolishness to keep presenting black people, who don’t endorse or support Obama, as traitors to some kind of cause.

    There are many of us who will vote for Obama because of how and where he stands on certain issues. Conversely, there are just as many of us who will vote for him simply because he is black.

    The important thing to remember is that this is about CHOICE. The majority of black people could give less than a damn about whom Bey, Jay-Z, Diddy, and Robert Johnson support.

    Stop trying to present them as having an influence over black people that they simply don’t have.

  • Wrong Post Girl

    I think Maxwell looks good right there, nice sweater

  • PRTTYBRWNGIRL

    cosign w/ BIRD … celebrities have an image to uphold, and with endorsements, them lending their name to a questionable candidate could have adverse affects on that. with beyonce lending her name to designers like Armani, and other designers they might not look too kindly upon her endorsing Obama. However, just because these celebrities are black does not mean they owe their allegiance & vote to Obama. having said that i HATE black republicans. to me the entire party is about self serving wealthy poeple who use our governement and its resources to get more money while caring little about the less fortunate. as black people, no matter how far we’ve come in regards to our success at some point we can go back and track poverty or hardship in our lineage. so for us to forget where we’ve come as people, as individuals just because we have a little green is, to me what the true essence of being a sell out is. i am a young black professional making more money than ive ever made in my life, but i refuse to become one of those run over other people to get ahead, or get rich off the back of the poor working class. its sickening. i keep myself grounded and humble and give to others the way i would pray someone would give to me if i were ever in a position to need it.

  • Sammy J. Parker

    Why is this an issue? Did people learn who contributed and just hand-pick which unmentioned celebrities to target…that’s lame.

    Besides, are you shocked? Beyonce and Jay Z are two of the most pseudointellectual people I’ve ever come across in all my life…I wouldn’t expect ignorant people to get involved in politics…and when they do, I consider it faddish.

  • isys

    I’m glad he’s getting support from people who actually support what he stands for and not just his color. Besides- JayZ, B thats my girl- they should stick to music

  • Darth Paul

  • http://freshfromthestreetz.blogspot.com freshfromthestreetz.blogspot.com

    I support Obama all the way but it’s THEIR money they don’t have to give any money to anyone. And do you know what kind of voice Jay and all them have if they said who they vote for??? Some kids just legal of age would just hear Jay-Z say he voting for Obama and just vote cause Jay said it. They ain’t stupid they know their platform if Obama wanted their support I’m sure he could make a call and get it if he needed it that bad. But blacks need to just get over whose not supporting who just because they are black it just sounds ridiculous to me.

  • funnymoney

    its funny how during the last election these same people “especailly P. Diddy” ran around the country promoting “Vote or Die” when everyone was hating on Bush and wanted a CHANGE.

    Now the time has come for people to make a real change at the polls and the fools are now where around….I guess jumping on the “I hate Bush” bandwagon goes to show how politally hollow and shallow these folks are.

    I support Obama not only cause he’s Black but b/c he is a fresh face with fresh idea.

    There has been only to families that have run this country the last 24 yrs the Bush’s (Sr. and Jr.) and Clinton’s. And i be damn if the will run it for another 4 or 8 yrs.

    Say what you want to but both families have f*cked this country.

    And the next person that says Mr. Clinton was our first Black Prez needs to be smacked. Now that we have a serious Black candidate, those same people will shy away b/c the feel more confortable with the other running this country.

    Its easier to follow the cycle than to break the cycle. Im in it for a REAL CHANGE, ask yourself ARE YOU

  • FDA

    i’m personally glad. There are no deals or one hand washing the other. And personally i wouldn’t want their support,the money doesn’t compensate the for the persons it comes from, He would want some sense of “intelligence” not street credibility over the top playmakers.

  • truself

    Obama has the head black person (OPRAH) in charge so who are those other folks?

    plus having people like jay z, shaawn combs and beyonce would make him seem stupid and not as intellectual. when have any of those folks been seen as intellectual….

    Most rich folks want to keep rich folks in the white house. They don’t care about Obama b/c he is a rep for the little people without money and for change.

    Oprah could care less about the white folks money, so she is standing up for what is right.

  • Nation

    Are these people informed enough to endorse anybody? Doubt it. An endorsement from any of them would not be a good thing for any candidate who wants to be taken seriously. Let them endorse Sharpton when he runs for something since he seems to make it out to all of their parties. You know those clowns are not trying to alienate any of the white kids and their parents who buy their BS music. Jay-Z only speaks out for stupid ish like telling folks to boycott Christal champagne.

    Why would these brain dead zombie negroes support Obama when yt got them in his back pocket. a bunch of sell outs!! we don’t need their corny ass noway.

  • aerin

    to and what: the school in indonesia that Barack attended was NOT a wahabist school–it was an elite school that has been knon to churn out fortune 500 ceos as well as former and current heads of state. CNN did a piece on the school about a year ago.

    if you know anything about indonesia, you would know that there are christians as well as muslims and buddhists. The school’s curriculum also reflects the diversity of its students. hopefully, barack will be a shining example of education getting you as far as you want it to take you, unlike dubya.

    Who the hell cares? Are they SUPPOSED to donate because they’re Black? This is as worthy of a post as that damn Beyonce and Connect 4 B.S.

  • Beyaki says..

    Maybe they don’t want to get involved with politics.It would just mean less record sales.It’s good business on their half.

  • STEPH

    IM TIRED OF THIS SITE..LIKE SERIOUSLY..WHY DO THEY HAVE TO SUPPORT HIM…JUST BECAUSE HE IS BLACK..THATS SO STUPID…IM TIRED OF BLACK PEOPLE LIKE U ONLY VOTING FOR HIM BECAUSE HE IS BLACK AND LOOKING DOWN ON OTHERS AND CALLING THEM SELL OUTS BECAUSE OF IT…IGNORANCE AT ITS FINEST

  • Shamzy

    I like Obama! Not because hes black but because I like what he stands for. Just because they are black doesnt mean that they HAVE to support him. Theres enough racism in this world! Stop being so ignorant and let people make their own choices without being criticized!

  • Nita

    I agree with Stacy and Mona. I remember when Louis Farrakhan made that comment about how if he’s not appearing to support Obama did Obama good, then he wasn’t going to appear to support Obama.

    There’s method to all of this. And everybody who made mention of anonymous donations is right, too. Nobody’s going to dig deep enough to see that Third Cousin Pookie and Step-Auntie Shirelle donated.

    Besides, most rich folks donate to all viable candidates just to have their bases covered.

  • E$

    it’s because Oprah hate Rap muzik

  • Lite&Sweet

    why would the super rich endorse someone that has said he is going to remove that big building in the Caymans that they’ve been tax sheltering their money in?

    Stand Obama next to Jay Z and the camel looks like a straight up clown.

  • wosip

    It’s not an endorsment but Powell said he is very impressed by what Obama has accomplished so far…

  • chloe

    Why do they have to support obama….. just because he is black? that’s dumb and ignorant, they might not agree with his politics, you ever think of that?!

    Yall need jesus! SMH

  • andie

    Are they being smart about they’re careers or are they being puppets?

    Another case of the white man with his foot on the black man’s back.

  • Savvy

    @ Chole

  • playlist

    WTF are they doing? I don’t believe this post…and for the record:

    I support Barack Obama 100%

  • wosip

    8% of the poll station clinton leads 38 to 36! This is gonna a very very tough night!

  • Micaela

    Why does it matter!?!? I am going to say this. Most black ppl are only jumping on the Obama bandwagon because he is black…not because they know what he is representing!

  • tamrock

    “Are they being smart about they’re careers or are they being puppets?

    Another case of the white man with his foot on the black man’s back.”

    I agree 100%! And they don’t even realize they are being used! Sad.

    Oh, right like supporting someone for reasons other than politics has never happened!?! THUMBS DOWN

  • tamrock

    and what

    Who is Barack Obama?

    Very interesting and something that should be considered in your choice.

    If you do not ever forward anything else, please forward this to all your contacts…

    this is very scary to think of what lies ahead of us here in our own United States …

    better heed this and pray about it and share it.

    We checked this out on “snopes.com”. It is factual. Check for yourself.

    Who is Barack Obama?

    Probable U. S. presidential candidate, Barack Hussein Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, to Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., a black MUSLIM

    from Nyangoma-Kogel, Kenya and Ann Dunham, a white ATHEIST from Wichita, Kansas.

    Obama’s parents met at the

    University of Hawaii. When Obama was two years old, his parents divorced. His father returned to Kenya . His

    mother then married Lolo Soetoro, a RADICAL

    Muslim from Indonesia.?

    When Obama was 6 years old, the family relocate to

    Indonesia. Obama

    attended a MUSLIM school in Jakarta . He also spent two

    years in a Catholic school.

    Obama takes great care to conceal the fact that he is a Muslim. He is quick to point out that, “He was once a

    Muslim, but that he also

    attended Catholic school.”

    Obama’s political handlers are attempting to make it appear that he is not a

    radical.

    Obama’s introduction to Islam came via his father, and that

    this influence was temporary at best. In reality, the senior Obama returned to Kenya soon after the divorce, and never again had any direct

    influence over his son’s education.

    Lolo Soetoro, the second husband of Obama’s mother, Ann Dunham, introduced his stepson to Islam. Obama was

    enrolled in a Wahabi school

    in Jakarta .

    Wahabism is the RADICAL

    teaching that is followed by the Muslim terrorists who are now waging Jihad against the western world. Since

    it is politically expedient to be a

    CHRISTIAN when seeking major public office in the United States , Barack Hussein Obama has joined the United Church of Christ in an attempt to

    downplay his Muslim

    background. ALSO, keep in mind that when he was sworn

    into office he DID NOT use the Holy Bible, but instead the Koran.

    Barack Hussein Obama will NOT recite the Pledge of Allegiance nor will he show any reverence for our flag. While others place their hands

    over their hearts, Obama turns his back to the flag and slouches.

    Let us all remain alert concerning Obama’s expected presidential candidacy.

    The Muslims have said they plan on destroying the US from the inside out, what better way to start than at the highest level – through the President of the United States , one of their own!!!!

    Please forward to everyone you know. Would you want this man leading our country?…… NOT ME!!!

    You are ignorant…and that’s not ok. “The Muslims want to destroy us! LMAO This kind of man? A Muslim man? What about his views and plans for AMERICA? You heard he is/was a Muslim man and started taking about terrorists, radicals, blah, blah, blah. You are brainwashed by the American media. I’m Muslim and for the record not all of us are terrorists.

    I’m sure previous American Presidents received endorsement money from “Men in white sheets.”

    P Diddy and Jay-Z are the fugliest negroes ever. Beyaki is illiterate. I wouldn’t want those losers support.

    Clinton wins NH, thank you Obama, but this is the nd of the dream!

  • California Pixie

    Mr Mr I’m just going to piggy back on your response.

  • Strong White Guy

    Why should he be supported? Just because he’s black? That is RACIST!

  • TT

    Jay-Z and Beyonce can vote for who ever they want. MATTER FACT, I’M VOTING JAY-Z FOR PRESIDENT. Lol! Comment on that. HOVA HOVA HOVA!!!

  • Ms. V

    I am a huge Obama fan. Not only because he is black but because of all the possibilities that I see in him. This is a chance for America to get it right and I wish more people would support him and not knock him down. I can’t say I am surprised that Diddy or Jay Z have not supported him, neither of them probably have never voted before. What a shame.

  • That Diva

    so they (we) should support Obama because he’s black, not because of the issues?

    That’s silly

  • NoTimeToGaze

    YES SUPPORT HIM BECAUSE HE IS BLACK. ARE U AMERICANS STUPID OR WHAT ?

    U BEING BLACK AND HIM BEING BLACK MAKES A HUGE DIFFRENCE AS TO THE ATTENTION THAT YOUR COMMUNITIES WILL RECEIVE. IF HE DOES NOT WIN, BASED UPON THE DEARTH OF VOTES FROM BLACK PEOPLE I WILL BE LAUGHING VERY HARD. IF YOU PEOPLE DO NOT VOTE, WHITE PEOPLE ARE JUST LAUGING AT YOU EVEN HARDER THAN THEY DID WHEN YOU WERE ALL SLAVES. WOW- THE COMMENTS ON THIS THING.

    THOSE SLAVE DRIVERS REALLY DID A GOOD JOB WITH YOU PEOPLE. sLAVE DRIVES, BIG UP YOUR CHEST.

  • Gnarly

    @NoTimeToGaze,Looks like you had no time for school either.

  • chloe

    All I know is, I’m not voting for Obama just because he is black…… a black president can be just as bad ad a white president can. Bill Clinton was an excellent president who cared about black people and our issues….. he wasn’t black. Hilary clinton could be a better president than obama, but some of you will never know because some of you guys are too busy looking at their skin color instead of thier views on the economy, the war, global warming abortion, or immigration.

    Where America satnds today it is critical for us to have a president who is qualified and stare us in the right direction before there is no more america. So I don’t know about you guys but I will vote for who eaver is the best candidate.

  • KB Easy

    Another thing. Why in the hell do you have the lastest posts at the bottom and the oldest up top. That’s backward.
