Jay-Z Encourages Obama Support

July 27th, 2008

Read how Jay-Z really feels if America fails to elect Barack Obama this November.

“If [Barack Obama] loses I really will feel sorry and sad for the state of America. The world is watching. And the world will judge us on that. And I’m not voting for him simply because he’s black. The worst thing ever for black people would be to put someone in who wasn’t capable. I’m voting because he’s capable. What he represents to a little kid in Marcy Projects right now is to make him feel like he’s part of America. We never felt like we were part of the American dream.”

As told to Alex Bilmes from The Observer

As a women working for the government in my home town, I see lots and lots of disagreement’s toward Obama just b/c of the color code….BLACK!! Does it matter what race he is, as long as we see a CHANGE!!!! As long as my mother and father have been walking this earth, change would be considered but for my childeren change may not happen if McCain does get to become president. I’m not putting down or neglecting him (McCain) but if God allows me to see my children grow up in the year 2016 then what am I suppose to tell them when they ask……… what happen to our world! Obama has more to offer our young generation than McCain b/c he never did have to struggle to get the best, he’s always had a way to survive! You ask the gerneration today what it is that they need to make it and I bet you 89% will say job’s, health insurance, better justice and equalization!!!!! What ever your vote, What ever you think…….. Obama is always going to have my vote!!!

I’m voting for Barack for the simple fact that he is the best man for the job. It has nothing to do with race for me. When Rev. Jesse Jackson wanted to be president I could not in good conscious even consider him. We’re so caught up in race and political parties that we don’t stop to consider who is actually the best man for the job. Barack may not have as much experience as McCain, but how is that a bad thing? Sometimes fresh is better. McCain seems like another Bush to me with his policies, and I can’t go through 4 more years of Bush-like politics. I’m tired and so is the rest of America!
