I have a lot of respect for Lupe. Not many celebrities tell it like it is nowadays even though it is sorely needed for them to do so.

Since his name was clearly in the title and you opened the thread and responded, I'm guessing YOU care.

Fiasco raises some valid points, a lot different argument than the redneck Ted Nugent Hank Williams "Obama is a Muslim" argument.

This is what teabaggers don't understand. It's ok if you oppose Obama, as long as your reasons are valid.

Disliking Obama because of his name, his ethnic background, or some made up bullshyt (Communist, Kenyan, Socialist, Dicator) is just plain stupid and ignorant.

OMG, I looked at part of the video. I just can't put any stock in any fool who says, "I was axed about a song."

Psssst. According to you and the other Obama cult members, there doesn't appear to be any valid reasons to oppose Obama.

Looks like the obamabackers are upset that the youth vote for empty chair obama will be a shadow of what it was in 2008

I just said that Fiasco has some valid points and you conclude that I'm an Obama cult member

Stay stupid tea party

I think the youth vote will take a hit this time around for Obama in terms of turnout. I'm not seeing the intensity outside of the staged Obama campaign events on select campuses. If turnout skews more to seniors Obama could be in some trouble.

No one is listening to Lupe though.
