Obama is criticized for associating himself with Jay Z because Jay Z has a drug selling pass. However, the Kennedys are one of Americas favorite families and anything to do with them is held in high regard. Why is that?


Do you people not know how the Kennedys got rich?

I do not know if they a "favorite family" of Americans. They are famous. And those who do know the corrupt manner in how that family rose to power do not hold them in high regard.

I have more of a problem with Jay-Z associating himself with such a fraud-I've lost a lot of respect for Hov and respect rappers that speak the truth like Mos Def, Immortal Technique, Lupe Fiasco, etc. Tupac would not be a friend of OBushMa if he were alive today.

Were you alive during the Kennedy era? How do you know of these "accepted associations"? Or are you just flinging poo again?

Really? Why is a Kennedy endorsement worth a lot then?

Well, it must be racism. What else could it possibly be?

Only conservatives criticize Obama for such silly nonsense. Conservatives would criticize Obama for farting out sunshine if it happened...
