That’s nice, but the people at the rallies are already hyped up to vote for Obama. I’m hoping the celebs will fan out on election day and hit up polling places encouraging people not to leave the long lines. Definately don’t waste all the celebs in one place.
Are rappers still relevant? I mean a lot of kids I know see right through their minstrelty. Telling people to vote and then they advocate tomfoolery, ignorance and misogyny the other 364 days of the year.
Can Beyonce say Barack Obama?
Mary is the only one who has consistenly supported positivity and uplight ones spirit.

R+B star BEYONCE KNOWLES has postponed her baby plans after learning just how tough motherhood can be from her sister SOLANGE.
The 27-year-old singer once claimed that winning an Oscar, getting married and becoming a mum were three things she’d like to cross of her wish list by the time she was 30 – but now she’s not so keen on having a kid in the next three years.
Knowles, who wed rapper Jay-Z in April (08), says, “I’d still love to win an Oscar (but) the kids, I dunno.
“I’ve been keeping my nephew and he’s the smartest little boy, but he’s making it hard. It’s a lot of work.”
But she hasn’t ruled out having kids before she turns 30: “In three years, maybe.”

I am so proud of them!
I can’t believe it missed this rally. I started to go but the flyer only said J and Puffy were going to be there. Had I had any idea Mary and Beyonce were both showing up, I would have burned up I-95 to get there…
I cannot WAIT to Barack the vote tomorrow!!!

Georgia, Alabama…etc.

Commendable, they took time from their “me” absorobed selves and did something for the good of the Country. good job!!!

I have got to say that this is the best that I have ever seen Jay look. He almost looks handsome. Hair and marriage are doing wonders for his appearance.
I’m coming into to work for 3 hours tomorrow and taking leave the rest of the day in anti*****tion of the lines and the long wait.

Im votin for obama and dont want no drama lol
I put my vote in for Obama last week- I’m not voting for some old azz, fake azz war hero and a bytch that used to do sports reports! I’m more qualified than Palin & McCain combined, at least I studied politics in undergrad and graduate school.
History will be make tommorrow whether Obama wins or not – i sure do hope obama wins.
Please America vote for OBAMA!!! McCain is going to be anarchy for the world
i bet mccain supporters who like jay z and beyonce
are *****ing fuming at the jaw!!! lol
they like awww mann *****ody motivating me!!!
beyonce looks like she got surgery she look busted in the face!
Hey everyone…don’t believe all the hype or the poll results. You know they are going to try everything possible to steal this election!! If you can also help out by phone banking. Go to his website (www.barackobama.com)to get more info. It’s easy and you can do it from home!! Please, Please, Please Barack the vote.
Next year when your gas and light bills go up and we’re at war, the draft is re-enacted and the peso is worth more than the dollar I won’t say I told you so, just come back to this post…it will say it for me. McBama ‘08 snitches.
This man has single handedly brought back black pride and worth in this country that my generation hasnt ever seen and its so uplifting! I see what my parents felt with the likes of Dr King. Obama is Star Power and can move m*****es of people, characteristics like this is what we need in the White House!
But we need to make sure he stays on the right track and not let them “good ole boys” deter his mission of putting this country back in the good standings. And we, the public, have to support and work with this man as he tries to achieve the greatest advancement since slavery and use getting the right to vote! Dont waste it!!!
I’ll be voting tomorrow. Can’t wait. Wish I could go early in the morning but can’t. Ugh. Long lines will be around by the time I get to do it.
YES WE CAN!!!!! I hope that everyone votes and not get discouraged by long lines. We wait in lines for clubs and rides at amusement parks. We need to have the same determination to VOTE. Voting is a right not a priviledge…..BARACK THE VOTE!!!!!!!
Russell is rocking a Ganesha shirt (The Hindu God of Success). He has truly evolved and come into his own with the Hindu and Budhhist pratice. I hope he continues to find his way on the path to enlightenment. Namaste to you Russ and all that you do!
I’ve already voted!!! Obama 08′
But I find it hard to believe that celebrites actually vote. I’m sure some, but not as many as they make you think. Yhea they tell us to, but they also tell us to give money to poor kids…. they the ones with all the damn money, ***** the money they do give is mostly a tax write off.
lol@ my own two cents.
btw (who ever posted that)…. I dont give a ***** if beyonce wants a baby or not….
Barack The Vote 08′
Well *****, I just might end up voting this year, for
Cynthia McKinney and Rosa Clemente of the GREEN PARTY!
OH *****!…
THEY ARE REALLY TALKING ABOUT SOME THE OF THE REAL ISSUES FACING THIS COUNTRY..I’LL BE DAMNED..
It’s good to see the stars out and about supporting the election, but they would help the most by standing in those long lines tomorrow like everyone else. It’s one thing to say, but to do means a whole lot more.
Geeze.. Pull up your pants guys.. that is progress!
Can Beyonce say Barack Obama?
LMAO…
Mary is the only one who has consistenly supported positivity and uplight ones spirit.
I agree!!! Such a true inspiration to us all..
Hope everyone is voting tomorrow!!!
It fills my heart when those who have been blessed with so much are motivated to use their influence their world in positive ways. Thanks for being a link in the chain Jay, B, Diddy, Mary and Russ.
JOE CAMEL AND *****TY DIDDY WANT TO MAKE A CHANGE IN A HOW WE VOTE EH? JUST THROW SARAH PALIN IN A MUSIC VIDEO WITH 50 CENT AND IM SURE IT’LL WORK THEIR FAVOR
why should I listen to Beyonce…on 106 & Park, she couldn’t even articulate what she would ask Barack Obama. And furthermore, her new nose is horrible!
I hope he win and with all this swirling we should have alot of white votes shouldnt we
Rest in Peace to Madelyn Dunham (Barack’s grandmother):
(CNN) — Sen. Barack Obama’s grandmother, Madelyn Dunham, has died following a bout with cancer, Obama and his sister, Maya Soetoro-Ng, said Monday.
She was 86.
“She was the cornerstone of our family, and a woman of extraordinary accomplishment, strength, and humility,” their statement said.
“She was the person who encouraged and allowed us to take chances. She was proud of her grandchildren and great-grandchildren and left this world with the knowledge that her impact on all of us was meaningful and enduring. Our debt to her is beyond measure.”
Obama and Soetoro-Ng asked that donations be made for the search for a cure for cancer in lieu of flowers. A small private ceremony will be held “at a later date.”
Dunham p*****ed away peacefully at her home shortly before midnight Sunday night (5 a.m. ET), campaign spokeswoman Jen Psaki told CNN. She said Obama learned of her death around 8 a.m.
The Democratic presidential candidate left the campaign trail on October 23 and flew to Honolulu, Hawaii, to spend the day with Dunham, whose health deteriorated after she suffered a broken hip.
His wife, Michelle Obama, filled in for him at events in Columbus and Akron, Ohio, on October 24.
Obama said in an interview taped for that day’s “Good Morning America” that Dunham had been “inundated” with flowers and messages from strangers who read about her in Obama’s 1995 book, “Dreams From My Father.”
“Maybe she is getting a sense of long-deserved recognition toward the end of her life,” he said.
The candidate resumed his campaign on October 25.
Obama has spoken about his grandmother often on the stump, talking about what an integral figure she was in his youth and how she struggled against the gl***** ceiling in her career. He and his family traveled to Hawaii in August to visit her.
“She’s the one who put off buying a new car or a new dress for herself so that I could have a better life,” he said in his acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention. “She poured everything she had into me. And although she can no longer travel, I know that she’s watching tonight, and that tonight is her night as well.”
