this is old, but it’s a gem. so i decided to post some excerpts enjoy.

TALK TO ‘EM, X!

XXL: Are you following the presidential race?
DMX: Not at all.

You’re not? You know there’s a Black guy running, Barack Obama and then there’s Hillary Clinton.
His name is Barack?!

Barack Obama, yeah.
Barack?!

Barack.
What the fuck is a Barack?! Barack Obama. Where he from, Africa?

Yeah, his dad is from Kenya.
Barack Obama?

Yeah.
What the fuck?! That ain’t no fuckin’ name, yo. That ain’t that nigga’s name. You can’t be serious. Barack Obama. Get the fuck outta here.

more after the drop…

You’re telling me you haven’t heard about him before.
I ain’t really paying much attention.

I mean, it’s pretty big if a Black…
Wow, Barack! The nigga’s name is Barack. Barack? Nigga named Barack Obama. What the fuck, man?! Is he serious? That ain’t his fuckin’ name. Ima tell this nigga when I see him, “Stop that bullshit. Stop that bullshit” [laughs] “That ain’t your fuckin’ name.” Your momma ain’t name you no damn Barack.

So you’re not following the race. You can’t vote right?
Nope.

Is that why you’re not following it?
No, because it’s just—it doesn’t matter. They’re gonna do what they’re gonna do. It doesn’t really make a difference. These are the last years.

But it would be pretty big if we had a first Black president. That would be huge.
I mean, I guess…. What, they gon’ give a dog a bone? There you go. Ooh, we have a Black president now. They should’ve done that shit a long time ago, we wouldn’t be in the fuckin’ position we in now. With world war coming up right now. They done fucked this shit up then give it to the Black people, “Here you take it. Take my mess.”

Right, exactly.
It’s all a fuckin’ setup. It’s all a setup. All fuckin’ bullshit. All bullshit. I don’t give a fuck about none of that.

We could have a female president also, Hillary Clinton.
I mean, either way it doesn’t matter. I don’t care. No one person is directly affected by which president, you know, so what does it matter.

Yeah, but the country is.
I guess. The president is a puppet anyway. The president don’t make no damn decisions.

The president…they don’t have that much authority basically?
Nah, never.

But Bush pretty much…
You think Bush is making fuckin’ decisions?

He did, yeah, he fucked up the country.
He act like he making decisions. He could barely speak! He could barely fuckin’ speak!
Can’t be serious. He ain’t making no damn decisions.

Well Barack has a good chance of winning so that might be something.
Good for him, good for him.

    Well… i have to say… this might be the most intelligent shit i’ve heard out of DMX. We all know he’s talkin out of his ass and that he’ll say whatever the fuck pops into that fucked up head. But honestly, he makes a good point. yeah, it would be great to see an african-american in the oval office, but really he will end up being the scape-goat. I feel like he’s in a herman boone type situation, (please refer to “remember the titans”) if one thing goes wrong, he goes from hope to scape goat. whoever replaces bush has a monumental task ahead of them, to even try to get the country even back to circa 2000, when shit was just a little less fucked up (or just fucked up in different ways that we would love to go back to). I dunno, I just feel like there’s no quick fix to this situation. Obama is not Jesus, he can’t deliver israel in 3 years, nor can he honestly do anything by himself. He doesn’t have the money behind him like bush did or the heart of pure evil like Cheney. I’d much rather see him in there than anybody else right now (besides my man billy clinton), but the storm is not even close to over and i just hope he can keep his eyes open in the rain. I feel like he might get swept away with the backlash against “W”’s actions. I dunno… just my opinion.

    Bottom line is DMX is always good for a laugh… and a shake of the head.

    oh my goodness. che has just WENT IN. with a point, too!

    “but the storm is not even close to over and i just hope he can keep his eyes open in the rain.”

    and did you realize X just said, “it doesn’t matter. these are the last years.”

    is that foreshadowing?
