Barack Obama - Mr. Thanksgiving


And with this oath, Barack Obama became the 44th President of the United States, the first Black president, and essentially the mu'fuckin man WORLDWIDE. Before the election, many figures in the hip-hop community embraced Obama as their candidate. Some even adopted monikers based on his name; Ciroc Obama (Diddy) and Barack ODrama (DJ Drama). Oddly enough one of DJ Drama's nicknames, Mr. Thanksigivng, applies to President Obama as well...PAY ATTENTION! (c) DJ Drama

If you listen to the "Diddy Internlude" on Gangsta Grillz: The Album, it explains the premise behind the alias. Plain and simple, he makes sure everybody eats. Opportunities are availble based on his grind, his hustle, and his influence. Who more than Barack Obama is assuring that EVERYONE is in a position to eat?! I dont want to get too political b/c I am by no means an expert but I'll just point out a few things. The day before Inauguration he attended a ball where he spoke highly of Fire Marshall Bill aka John McCain. He appointed his former rival, Hilary Clinton, as the new Secretary of State. Obama is an advocate for the environment and wants to create millions of new "green" jobs. He is also charging the public with an increased dedication to their local communities. This "pay it forward" idealogy is beneficial to everyone involved. Most of all, Obama gives PRIDE to a people that thought this was impossible and HOPE to a country (actually the world. The World, Craig!) that has certainly seen better days.

The haters are probably like, "Yeah Yeah, get off his nuts", but I'm just a supporter. Barring any scandals or extramarital affairs (Money + Power + Swag = Beeches) , I truly believe he will bring the CHANGE that he has based his campagin around. It's sort of like during those family road trips where Dad was the driver and Mom was the co-pilot. You only knew where they said you were going and all you could do was ask, Are we there yet? Well, on the road to a better America, Barack is tasked with driving this

Microbus
a fucked up VW Microbus we got from George Dubya. Michelle is in the passenger seat and the rest of us are just along for the ride. Will we ever get back to the "good 'ol days"? No. Will we reach a better tomorrow? Yes We Can.
