After Kanye West's interruption of 19 year old Taylor Swifts MTV Video Award acceptance, President Obama was asked in an off the record segment of an ABC interview what his Kids thought of Kanye West's actions. Here is video of his now infamous remarks regarding the incident:
I have watched a lot of music videos over the years both professionally and personally but I have to say that this video that's produced for 'Art of Invention' is one of the best I've seen in recent years. The director captured the story line and told the story with as much detail and historical accuracy as the song itself portrayed.
This new rap music video is a tribute to the accomplishments of African-American inventors and their contributions to our society. Many of their inventions were so revolutionary that they have made significant changes to thousands of lives and will continue to do so for many decades. Malvern rapper, Jair Dynast is determined to spark debate about the negative stereotypes of hip hop culture and change attitudes by quietly inspiring youngsters that experience adversity.

NBA great, Charles Barkley sat down for an interview with Campbell Brown on CNN October 27, 2008 to talk politics and whether racism will once again divide us. Charles pointed out that race will be a factor in the November 4th elections. As he puts it, people will not tell pollsters that they will vote based on race. He further stated that some white people will vote for Obama on personal economic issues in the polling booth, totally disregarding race but they will not confess this to their friends.
Rap artist Eminem told Zane Lowe of the BBC that on November 4, 2008 he will be casting his vote for Democratic Presidential Nominee Barack Obama.

Paris Fashion Week came alive as Sonia Rykiel Runway showcased famous designers such as, Stella McCartney (Paul McCartney's daughter) Spring 09 collection. They caused quite a style buzz when they unveiled Rodarte’s Obama dress and Obama mania ensued according to Threadtrend.
Who is the designer of the yellow dress? I love that one as a daywear number, it's gorgeous. Doesn't Obama make for good fashion? It is good to see that these designers for Obama have lent their support and talents to optimism.
Senator Barack Obama was very consistent in tonight's Nashville debate. On virtually every issue and question posed, you were able to understand exactly what Barack Obama's plan for the country is. Senator John McCain on the other hand was only able to impress upon us that:"I know how to do that" but wasn't able to articulate how he would do it or what exactly it was he wanted to do beside not raise taxes on anyone and cut earmarks. So in short, John McCain did nothing to change my mind as to who would be best suited to meet and overcome the challenges that America is faced with.
The 2nd Presidential Debate between Barack Obama and John McCain airs tonight live from Nashville, Tennessee at 9pm. This debate will be critical to voters because it is a "town hall style" debate with independent and undecided voters posing many of the questions to the Candidates. We can expect John McCain to try to paint Barack Obama as a "tax and spend liberal" while McCain is a Maverick who bucks his party yet has no real solutions for the economic crisis. McCain will advocate cutting government spending and stopping "Pork Barrel" add on to bills. These measures won't come close to doing anything to help grow the economy. In addition any economist will tell you that cutting spending in a recession will just make things worse.
