"Yes We Can" - Do You Believe In It?

Again DD,
freedom of speech goes a long way. That is more about the culture of the youth, but that is a topic for another day.

I think we are going to lock this one down in a few minutes.

AJ... how do you feel about celebrities and how they have perceived Obama. Do you feel that musicians such as Nas and Young Jeezy who constantly released material throughout the election that focused on Obama had any effect on young voter turn out?

I personally find those songs to be offensive, My President Is Black by Young Jeezy is a prime example of what really bothers me in todays society.

I would agree with that except that most rap music is sold to white adolescents in suburbia, and I also do not like to think that gangster rap represent the black community, but that's probably just wishful thinking on my part. While I might not agree with what certain media outlets have to say I would gladly die to preserve their right to say it.

Well said AJ, you are entirely right. and on that note, we will lock it up.
