Obama and Gore




As we mentioned here before. Obama said Gore would have a big part in his administration. Gore would be at the forefront in regard to resolving the Global Warning issue.

Obama is down with JayZ and Kanye



Obama has apparently met with two important figures in hip hop music. I think he has taken a far different approach than many of the other African Americans in politics. Jesse Jackson and Mr Sharpton came from the church and begun their campaign shrouded in blackness. Many of them built their campaign momentum at activities targeting other African Americans.

This can sometime scare other groups away especially the conservatives. Barack has not done that. He has not even targeted us. The fact that he met with JayZ and Kanye to target youth may mean that is going to start spending some time in the churches because the black evangelicals is where the mature votes come from. He has had success without relying on black people. There is chance that he may start doing some damage once he get into areas of higher black populace. I think he can flank the rest of the candidates like William Wallace did in Braveheart. That was the best flank demonstration in war based theatrical history.

African Americans can give him a boost because they are currently splitting the vote 50/50 between he and Hillary. We like the Clintons because they have demonstrated their concern for the community via Bill's policies. Obama is not the clear cut leader in the African American community. Not yet anyway.

Al Gore still makes the best running mate even though Mr. Kerry just cosigned.


"I've met with Jay-Z; I've met with Kanye. And I've talked to other artists about how potentially to bridge that gap. I think the potential for them to deliver a message of extraordinary power that gets people thinking (is massive)," Obama told Jeff Johnson during BET's political special What's In It For Us?.

Barack and Gore




That is a good ticket right there. Barack Obama for President and Al Gore as his Vice President! Barack Obama should see if Al Gore is down for a encore performance as VP. They would make the best combination.
