Obama Brushes Clinton Dirt Off His Shoulder

April 22nd, 2008

Obama’s hip-hop moment after ABC’s debate.

Hillary has been talking a lot smack about Barack, but while campaigning in Raleigh, N.C. last week, a day after the ABC debate in Philadelphia, the Illinois senator let her know that he wasn’t having it. In response to sharp attacks from Sen. Clinton and a debate, which was widely criticized for focusing on campaign gaffes, Obama had a hip-hop moment and brushed the Clinton “Dirt Off His Shoulder.”  Some reporters got it, but a lot of them didn’t. Obama referenced the 2003 Jay-Z song, “Dirt Off Your Shoulder,” which refers to getting your enemies off your chest by brushing your shoulders off. What did you think of Obama’s Jay-Z moment?  Watch the video here then have your say.

Hilarious. Okay okay, Barack had a “***** Moment”, I think it was great. Of course some people didn’t get it. Sure, they may have gotten the idea, but the message and Jigga reference was clearly for Us. That’s what I love about him. Although he’s not blatantly running as the “BLACK CANIDATE” (which he shouldn’t)and he doesn’t alienate anyone, at the same time he recognizes his culture in the face of politics and the media. The revolution is being televised as we speak, lol!

I’m not sure what planet this “furious” person lives on but we are here on earth and Barack is what this country needs and it fools like you who would rather vote for Hillary because her husband was as the people said ” the closest we would get to a black President” well same on all of you because it looks like we are getting one no thanks to dumb black people who would rather listen to lie than deal with the truth.. She’s a liar, and if you don’t see it than you could’nt be as educated as you said sister girl.

KUDOS to Barack for attempting running a CLEAN campaign! “If you stand straight, do not fear a crooked shadow.” His strong political agenda/idea of CHANGE – Reclaiming the American Dream inspires so many Americans, and reaches across party lines. Its unfortunate the Clinton’s are driving a wedge between democrats, and feeding the elephant with their kitchen sink politics. Leadership is not magnetic personality — that can just as well be a glib tongue. It is not “making friends and influencing people” — that is flattery. Leadership is lifting a person’s vision to high sights, the raising of a person’s performance to a higher standard, the building of a personality beyond its normal limitations.

I DONT LIKE ALL THIS ROCK STAR ALLUSIONS TO OBAMA, HECK THIS ISNT THE BLACK CAMELOT AND HE ISNT JACK KENNEDY THE BLACK MAN’S VERSION. HE IS A POLITICAL CANDIDATE FOR AN OFFICE THAT IS THE MOST POWERFUL ON THE PLANET.. AS OF THIS MOMENT IN TIME. THEREFORE HE HAS TO BE SERIOUS , ALL THIS HIP HOP MALARKY MAY GO WELL WITH A CERTAIN GROUP BUT ITS THE ONE THAT DOESNT TAKE VOTING SERIOUSLY ANYWAY SO WHY PLEASE THEM.?. DAMN DO ANY OF YOU ACTUALLY DO ANYTHING APART FROM LISTEN TO MINDLESS HIP HOP AND RAP LYRICS AND THINK THAT THE WHOLE WORLD MUST REVOLVE AROUND GIN AND JUICE?. ..( wait for it…..%%&&%%%%lol!)



olounwa Said on

so, where were all the obamabites when he first started off on this long journey?. if i recall his support was from white america , the educated, young activists, the elite intelligensia, the travelled and cultured , and those who are just plain fed up over the war in iraq. the whites who were more than ready for america to change.. it took iowa to make blacks start to take notice a bit.. before then most would swear BLIND THAT WHITES WOULD NEVER VOTE IN A BLACK PRESIDENT. most would never have given obama a first climpse let alone a chance as they are still mentally stuck in 1880. now that the prize is looking good and if not for that subborn hillary, would be almost in reach.. they are all on the bandwagon.. not to mention that hiphop stuff.. i am fed up with allusions to hiphop.. is obama supposed to be inviting jayz to dinner at the whitehouse to discuss policy ?. i think not.



wisdomspeaks Said on

If you are still on the Hilary bandwagon you might want to check in with your integrity. She is a blatant liar (caught in several during this campaign) who will do anything to become President. So a vote for her is a vote for someone we already know lacks integrity. Haven’t we had enough of that during the Bush era?



Lawrence (Nigeria) Said on

D black & white power fist for those who are ready to fight against Discrimination & Racism. This is goin 2 b history for America & the world entirely on the reign of a black man as president of the great UNITED STATE OF AMERICA. VOTE WITH UR HEART FOR THE MAN OF INTEGRITY & HIGH SUBSTANCE.
