Man Obama 08 This Movement will not be stopped Not BY Bush, Mcshame Or Hillary this Movement will Be in the White House in January. Obama 08

my daughter listens to these singers. tommie lee needs to stop drinking and read. Ludacris surprised me. He spoke quite eloquently. I was impressed with the young man. good job

So What? Obama is the President. Ludacris knows his stuff but just doesn't wish to share it at the moment. You see we like to sit back and watch how things play out. We meaning black folks. As far as Tommy Lee, hey I don't blame him one bit for not taking much time to engage in the politics. It's getting out of hand. Tommy knows who he will vote for. I like them both but are they supposed to be somebody we should respect in their political answers? Get Real…..

I am sure Lou Dobbs was giving you "mad props" Lou doesn't like anyone or give anyone a high five remember. It is extremly marketable to be against everyone.

Who cares? Ludacris supports Obama, what a shock!

You have got to be kidding me.

And this is news worthy why???????????????????

It must be a slow news day.

TOMMY LEE… OH MY GOD..If I were Obama I wouldn't mention
this to anyone.

Tommy Lee is the scum of the earth. Obama has had some great
entertainers support him, and for that he can be proud, but
Tommy Lee..He is a disgrace to this nation.

Ludaris and Tommy Lee should refrain from political comment until they each finish high school.

Way to go LUDA……. Vancouver - CANADA for OBAMA!
Make us proud baby…

Figures that Ludacris supports Obama. Most highschool dropouts seem to. Probably because they've never read the constitution.

did you burn one with 'em?

Ohh and PS. Jamaal, by definition a movement stops…but a Revolution persists. There is only one candidate that has started a rEVOLution and we all know who that is.

Big deal. It is right there with Springsteen and Elton! Nothing to look at here people.

I think Obama should be bust'n a sag so this whole range of supporters can feel that Obama identifies with them.

To A real american: why is it a shock that ludacris is supporting barack oh I get it, a lot of whites feel that it's racist for a black person to support another viable black candidate for president when in fact black people have supported white candidates since day one. But no one claimed racism when whites supported their own. So your right what a SHOCK!

I am so happy that John Edwards will not consider the vice presidency with Obama. Edwards should also not be AG or hold any other post in an Obama administration. I supported Edwards until he withdrew after South Carolina. Edwards carries little clout in NC except with the establishment of the NC Democratic Party. He had a hard time winning the US Senate. So what does his endorsement mean in NC. NOTHING! And, yes, I am a registered Democrat.

Slow day or what? Who cares what these two think. Get to some real news please.

First of all, Tommy Lee did not endorse Barack - please read the blog completely!

Second, Bush hs an MBA and has been the worse president known to our counrty. So, wht is the point of putting Ludacris down for not completing high school?!

Respect Ludacris! He is cool

And people always give rappers such a bad rap… besides after all the drugs tommy lee has been doing, how brilliant can he be? He was with Pamela Anderson too.

At least one of them seems to be reasonably aware of the issues.

Obama/Nagel 2008/2012…..this revolution will not be stopped!

Ummm…can you say DUH. Of course Ludacris supports Obama. Bet he wouldn't if Obama were a white man….Ludacris would be for Clinton. I'd bet my life savings and my house on it!

Wow, these two guys have an IQ of, like, 7?

Celebrities are not experts on politics, they only think they are. Kind of like Matthews and Olbermann.

Um, why is this news?

To all the

"If not Hillary then McCain" fools…yes fools. You obviously are not Democrats in any way , shape, or form and must be a gluton for punishment under the failed Republican rule.

and, even dumber…….
"Hillary in 2012″ morons

You think that she will be entitled the nomination once again. WRONG. I hear many people write how they are bitter and will not support Obama and that he can not beat McCain w/o your support. Well, there is a possibility that the statement may be true. But to think that people will support Hillary in 2012 after many of you plan on turning your back on the Democratic party because your candidate lost, YES LOST, are greatly mistaken.

Smarten up and grow as an enlightened person.

Billy from Fla,

Your postings are always so negative and wrong. If you read the article then you would see that it does not say that Tommy Lee is supported Barack Obama. Tommy Lee said that he does not follow politics.

So if you are going to be negative then at least get your information straight.

Pat Riot, you need to do your research. Ludacris went to college.
Who's the dummy now?

To NC Voter:

Post your comment to the correct article…No one cares about your declaration.

Hey Pat Riot

"Figures that Ludacris supports Obama. Most highschool dropouts seem to. Probably because they've never read the constitution"

You ignorant buffoon……………..most highschool dropouts support Clinton…Know the facts before spewing your stupidity

You conduct great interviews as well as several others at CNN so I am not surprised by the men talking candidly with you.
I will always remember you with the family of the bridge collapased victim and of course you dancing with Usher while honoring James Brown.
You are good.

To Kevin Leo: I agree, but it's important to make the distiction between earning an MBA versus daddy's money buying an MBA. And it is very clear that George Bush has not earned anything.

Re: Huckabee's stupid comments at the NRA event -

This is a typical comment from a conservative supposedly godly white man. It doesn't surprise me in the least. He can get away with this and more, however, because he's a white man.

He's bitter because nobody believed in his campaign. He's no different than our current administration and the country has all but proven that we're ready for a change. Whether that change comes in a great black man with wonderful vision for this country's future and the future of the world or in an old saggy faced crybaby pseudo liberal white woman with spite and entitlement in her heart - we will have change. The majority is speaking and we're saying "YES WE CAN". We will have a dem (preferably Obama) in the oval office in '08 and (I predict) with another democratic congress - YES WE WILL!!! Later for that sorry old bigot and his cheap shots. He's simply trying to maintain some relevancy after his pathetic attempt at becoming the next potus.

"He did promise, however, to address those issues with me in another interview at another time. Smooth."

Bust out Luda! Bust out!!

yes they can, they are americans and they knows what is goin on

"-Smarten up and grow as an enlightened person.

-57 female, white, lesbian, veteran, farmer from WV"

I'm sorry guys but you can delete this and I just wanna say, OH MY…..LOL!!!

Good points, Kevin Leo.

I would add , Pat Riot, that your statement that most high school dropouts seem to support Obama is highly ignorant. Do you realize that the vast majority of college-educated voters are Obama supporters?

Hate all those that opposed OBAMA!!!

Millionaire entertainers can afford being green. As the purchasing power of the dollar continues to plummet (thanks to low interest rates by the Federal Reserve to pander to a few million homeowners), they aren't going to give a darn about buying "green" products at a hefty premium. They're going to be worried about just feeding and clothing their families. Give them a quality product at a low price - who cares about being "green." Let someone else worry about it in 100 years. The planet's not going to burn up.
10 years from now as the planet's 10+ billion people compete for resources like oil, coal, steel, corn, etc - no one is going to care about being green. Wait and see!

Sounds like Tommy Lee should vote for Hillary. Since he "rarely watches TV or listens to news reports" he is probably unaware that Bill made a mockery of the White House when he was President and if Hillary is elected as either President or Vice President Bill will have another chance to disgrace this nation as First Husband/Second Husband. Lee will not remember how Bill spent all his time on intern affairs and not on foreign affairs and that is why we are in Iraq now. Lee would likely believe that Hillary actually loves Bill and his cheating ways but not think that Hillary only has him along only for the voters she thinks Bill can still attract. Tommy Lee would probably love to get invited to the White House to party with Bill (presuming other uneducated voters elect Hillary). Bill wouldn't have much to do as First Husband so he could introduce Lee to a lot of new, young, interns. Sounds like a perfect plan to me…..

Obama 08

"a REAL American"

I have read several of your posts. You never have anything constructive to say, just hateful garbage. You should change your moniker to "a REAL American racist bigoted tool". I hope no one actually conssiders you a representation of REAL American.

Billy from Florida…no where in the story did it state Tommy Lee was voting for Obama…It stated that Ludicris was the supporter.

See that's what the media means, when they say only the uneducated people vote for Hillary.

It's in black and white and you still did not get it right.

HILLARY SUPPORTERS AGAINST OBAMA

WE HAVE CREATED A MOVEMENT TO WRITE HER NAME ON THE BALLOT IN NOVEMBER

THERE WILL BE RALLIES IN FL THIS COMING WEEK TO PROTEST THAT THE DNC IS NOT ALLOWING FLORIDIANS TO EXPRESS THEIR IDEAS AND VOTE.

OBAMA CAMPAING STOPPED THE PROCESS TO HAVE A SECOND PRIMARY THERE

OBAMA IS THE ANTIDEMOCRATIC POTENTIAL NOMINEE AND THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY SHOULD CHANGE ITS NAME

DEMOCRTA AGAINST OBAMA

ALL THE WAY TO THE CONVENTION

STOP FALSE SPEECHES AND THE CANDIDATE PLAYING WITH PEOPLE DREAMS

STOP OBAMA WHO REALLY IS NOT A NEW AND BETTER KIND OF POLITICIAN

YES WE CAN!

HATE HATE HATE!

YES WE CAN!

HATE HATE HATE!

OBAMA '08

DEMOCRTAS DIVIDED TO STOP OBAMA

ALL THE WAY TO THE CONVENTION

Hey Pat Riot!
Actually, most high school drop outs have favored Hillary (i.e.: West Virginia). get your facts straight and try not to sound as ignorant. by the way i seriously doubt you have read the constitution, most people haven't

OBAMA 08!
w/ John Edwars and Clinton @ his side

"I AM WOMAN HEAR ME ROAR!"

bush was basically re-elected because of the manufactured 'threat' of gay marraige, yet california removed the ban anyway - so a lot of 'good' he put into keeping it illegal, right?

the environment is a non-issue, that none of the three candidates will likely even put to a vote. yes, it actually is an issue, but it's such a minority of people who actually care about it.

Just like everything else in this country: it won't become a big issue until fixing it becomes profitable for the majority of the companies that the lobbyists represent.

Attorney Douglas Palaschak May 16th, 2008 4:15 pm ET

Ludaris and Tommy Lee should refrain from political comment until they each finish high school.

If the people of W.VA are allowed to vote… and i think these two can speak

I thought ALL the Obama supporters were so highly educated. How did this one slip through?

Pat Riot: you are an idiot for making those comments.

All college educated voters are supporting Obama, if you haven't been keeping up with the stories.

I am a Democrat.
I am a woman.
I am college-educated.
I HAVE read our constitution.
I have read Obama's policies.
I have read McCains policies.
I have read Clinton's policies.
I have read the policies of all the dropped out candidates.

I am a Barack Obama supporter.
I will be voting Democratic whether Clinton, Obama, Both or neither are on the ticket.

Democrats 08.

Leon - what's funny about you is that you're a HILLARY SUPPORT AGAINST OBAMA…..rather than just a Hillary Supporter. You don't have to hate Obama in order to support Hillary. Did you know that? You Hillary supporter's are all alike in that you aren't necessarily voting for Hillary as much as you're voting AGAINST a black man. Why? Because the majority of you are bigots. So sad. This racist bs is so freaking old and tired. Get over it! Get over yourself!

I never would've guessed that Ludacris supported Obama.

to Leon, empty weak threats, from weak minded people. You are obviously a republican and enjoy playing their weak-minded childish games. The presidency is already decided, Hillary lost, and McCain will fall like a barrel of bricks. The convention will be a formality or ceremony, but the decision is already made. Or haven't you noticed the Gi-normous lead Obama has right now.

Dropouts typically support Hillary. At least this one has a brain.

Typical. Of course the black rapper is going to support Obama and take the opportunity to share that opinion in the media. I mean, we want all those rapping youth to vote don't we?

leon: you are an idiot as well. people who would rather destroy are party than vote for obama, are just not democrats and should not vote in our primaries.

i think this leon guy is another operation chaos member in disguise, doing whatever it takes to get mccrazy in the white house.

don't listen to this garbage!!!

democrats unite!!

"most high school dropouts seem to…"

Wow, are you confusing him with Hillary supporters? All the "polls" and even the candidate herself said that she has the under educated vote.

So because Luda supports Obama, it means it is because he is black? Are you kidding me? There are so many blacks that are stunch supporters of Hillary's so that argument does not stand up so stop making the insinuations.

It seems to me that Hillary supporters are so quick to cry foul when they see insulting posts by Obama supporters but then hypocrisy just hits that fan as they spew their hate filled posts.

TALKING ABOUT A CANIDATE STEALING THE NOMINATION..THIS RACE HAS BEEN FIXED FROM THE BEGINING.THIS COUNTRY IS JUST BIAS AGAINST A WOMAN PRESIDENT AND AFRAID OF A BLACK MAN. OBAMA 'S SUPPORTERS ARE NOTHING BUT HATE. THEY TRASH THE CLINTONS THROUGH THIS WHOLE RACE ALONG WITH THE MEDIA AND THEIR CANIDATE,THAN THEY WANT US CLINTON SUPPORTERS TO KISS —. AND VOTE FOR HIM. IT WILL BE A COLD DAY IN HELL THAT I VOTE FOR THE FALLING OF OUR COUNTRY.THEY CALL US CLINON SUPPORTERS UNEDUCATED AND STUPID. WE DONT VOTE FOR A CANIDATE THATS UNKNOWN,UNQUALIFIED AND NO TRACK RECORD. IF YOU ASK ME YOU O.B. SUPPORTERS ARE STUPID. WE SEEN ENOUGH OF O.B.'S CHANGES THROUGH HIS SUPPORTERS,HATE,BIAS, DIVISION AND RACIST. AMERICA DESERVES WHAT THEY GET IF O.B. GETS ELECTED. LETS SEE IF O.B. CAN SMOOTH TALK THE ENEMY . GOD HELP US ALL.

I am forced to blog off topic because CNN closes a topic so fast or the Obama-bots have their fingers on a hair keyboad just wating for every topic. They must not work or have computer type jobs that they are not doing. Anyway, why is anything that is said about Obama is considered shameful? Obama can only cry so many times before he looks really pathetic. Why is he suddenly wearing a flag pen? He wouldn’t be pandering, now would he?

For the record - I'm against ENTITLEMENT!!! Hillary isn't OWED this race because she's white, bill's wife, or a woman. It's crazy how the people of this country that aren't entitled to ANYTHING because they've already raped, pillaged and destroyed everything they’ve ever touched are they main ones who feel like the world owes them EVERYTHING.

"Probably because they've never read the constitution."

Others have pointed out already that the lesser educated tend to favor Hillary over Obama.

I will point out additionally that Obama himself is a constitutional law professor…

"But when I tried to press him on other issues like race, religion and HIV in the black community, he steered the conversation……"

Unfortunately, Obama won't have it so easy and all the old friends and organizations that are racist and antisemitic will come back to haunt him. How could the DNC put up such an easy target for the neocons?

Time for a new liberal party.

Can't judge a book by its cover. People are educating themselves about the issues. The election is too important not to and anyone that doesn't, well let's just leave it at that.

Ummm how come Tommy Lee is the one that know NOTHING about politics but Ludacris is the one automatically branded a HS dropout.

Luda went to college, but tommy lee DID NOT. Does this say anything about "misconceptions" that some people have?

Here is the Urban Dictionary entry for "wait for it:"

What idiots insert in the middle of a sentence to create a state of suspense, usually with a sarcastic overtone.

I won’t use “wait for it” in a sentence, because that would qualify me as an idiot, per above definition.

Everyone in my family will be writing in Hillary's name on the ballot. We will never vote for Obama.

And, we all have college degrees. So there!!!

Hillary the only one for the White House.

One can say that experience trumps, when it comes to national security. but by looking at what this administration as gotten us into, I can't say too much about experience at this point. Bush and McCain are supposed to be most experienced, however, ironically, we are
in one of most worst economical and foreign policy nightmares in history. So much for experience. Maybe it takes more than experience like……. COMMON SENSE.

I'm going to see them and their camera entourage next Thursday in Los Angeles. Now I know to bring my Hillary sign.

Sam and Riot and whoever else decides to say something about these two, read the post again first, then read the bio for Ludacris. Only Luda stated anything about Obama and being a supporter of him. And Ludaris finished college and was not some thug that got a record contract out of no where. If you lived in Atlanta you'd know he worked as a radio personality for years before breaking in to his own music. I swear, a lot of ya'll just find any reason at all to criticize any person that supports Obama. You don't see people calling popular Hillary supporters names. Oh yeah, she barely has any (that was a low blow but it's time ya'll came around and stopped fighting the fact that your candidate lost).

Okay, while I agree that this isn't the most newsworthy article, I have to disagree with a theme that I see here. I'm not sure about Tommy Lee, but Ludacris graduated from high school and attended Georgia State University where he studied music management and interned as a DJ.

I know Mike G listed some of his bio, but I had to reiterate it.

………Luda…Rocks…

……..Obama… Rocks…

…………Tommy Lee.. well.. he likes his ON the Rocks…

OBAMA/LUDACRIS….2008…

Yes….We..Ca,,,,,Rockkkkkkkkkkk…..!!!!

Yes…we…Can…. Rockkkk…..!!!

IM TIRED OF PEOPLE ASKING WHETHER STUFF IS NEWS WORTHY LOL YOU PEOPLE NEED TO LIGHTEN UP!!!! PANTIES IN A BUNCH!!

OBAMA 08

BREAKING NEWS

bill clinton had to leave kansas a long time back for getting a girl pregnant. her mail family ran him out

it was in the washington times today under

( little rock hits noisy tingel)

I believe that there should be rules for ALL election campaigns that the
Candidate's could not, in any way, shape, or form say ANYTHING
about their opponent! They should only be allowed to talk about
their own merit's and ambitions! People are sick and tired of the
mud-slinging insults and it, frankly, makes the Candidates look
"sleazy" ENOUGH!
Bobbie J. Bayles

The only reason this is news to CNN is because this rapper says he is for Obama, WOW what a shocker. Since his name was the only one brought up this is very news worhty for their GOLDEN BOY.

HILLARY CLINTON as a INDEPENDENT this fall.
Life long Democrat that is sick of the DEMOCRAT HEADS.

Pat Riot, in case you missed it, Obama's supporters are generally the more educated people. Hillary is the one getting the less educated vote.

It is also really funny to me how some people say Obama's campaign is hate filled. How do you figure? Your only arguement is something his former pastor said, which was taken out of context. Who are the people spewing hate? He is about bringing America together, unless you missed every speach he has given you would see that. That is why he has refraigned from attacking unless attacked. And to those say he is racist? After being raised by his WHITE mother and WHITE grandparents? Ignorance astounds me.

Are you kidding me? Who cares what these guys think. I can't believe CNN has posted this. This type of report should be in the cartoon section of the local newspaper. Since when does Tommy Lee, a rock star who is probably still hung over and apparently in a close second to Ozzy Osbourne to a self induced heart attack, and Ludacris, a rapper who makes his living off well rapping, become the voice of the common man. These men provide entertainment and entertainment alone. There is nothing wrong with that. This country has afforded them that opportunity and they made the best of it. Good on them. But in no way do they represent the common man. They have luxurious lifestyles, millions of dollars and apparently living THEIR " American dream." Why doesn't CNN get out of their office chairs, earn a paycheck, and do some real reporting and talk to some normal people and get their opinion on what's REALLY GOING ON. Whoever wrote this article, but more importantly approved this article should refer back to their Journalistic roots and realize that they may want to put a filter on bottom rung thinking (stupid ideas) next time. I clicked on this link to see if this was a joke…. unfortunately it wasn't. In closing, for the moderator, if you don't post this please do something with it…take it to your supervisor as feedback for the future

Having met Tommy at Apple during their reunion tour with Motley Crue it is clear the guy is a big kid who won't win awards for being "deep," but will get credit for being sincere and upfront.

He is who he is and just an artist who makes his living as an artist with no designs to enter into Politics or other areas.

I can see him being serious about the environment, as much as Tommy can be seeing as his ex-wife is a strident supporter of PITA.

At any rate, the guy is just a very honest, friendly, nice guy who won't stir the pot much. He's just a straight up musician.

Matt, if your'e so damm educated, why are you voting for a fool? Not to mention naive and out of touch . GO MCCAIN!!!!

lou dobbs should run for the presidency, he knows everything.he always seems to being attacking obama, he seem to like hillary, john mccain be fair it would be nice for a change, not always show your true colors. at one time it was a pleasure to listen to you. now when you come i changing the statation until campbell brown comes on.

Obama 08 can take anything, after all….With Huck making inappropiate jokes, Bush "Not getting involved with campaign 08″ McSame hitting Obama, and the Billary offense, A man taking that heat could easily be better than our current president

MATT. YOUR MORTALITY SHOWS YOUR AGE. WE ARE NOT UNEDUCATED. WE DONT VOTE FOR A CANIDATE BECAUSE HE HAS A SMOOTH SPEECH. WE DONT VOTE FOR AN UNKNOWN CANIDATE WITHOUT A TRACK RECORD. WE DONT VOTE FOR A CANIDATE THAT HAS NO KNOW HOW OR QUALIFICATIONS. WE DONT VOTE FOR A CANIDATE FOR RACE. WE ARE NOT THE HATERS. NOW WHO IN THE HELL ARE THE STUPID ONES. YOU ARE A LOW LIFE PUNK. GET A LIFE. ITS PEOPLE LIKE YOU THAT ARE GOING TO HURT YOUR CANIDATE IN NOV. WHAT COMES AROUND GOES AROUND. AMERICA DESERVES WHAT THEY GET IF YOU YOUNG HATERS ARE OUR FUTURE. CONCERNED VIET NAM VET

Seriously, who cares?

Who are these people really? Why do we consider their views important enough to receive news coverage?

What a joke CNN.

That is a great thing. I hope that they campaign to get out the vote so that everyone gets a chance to vote this year and hopefully it will be fair and just.

Well, other than giving me something MORE to rant about, this article was a true waste of energy - both personal & earthly kinds!

Ludacris was caught, obviously, being just that, Ludacris. A black man for a black man. A black man, not knowing Obama's platform or views and deciding he is the best qualified person for the job.

This is not a surprise in America. We pick people because they look nice, they smell nice, they have an education, and they don't live in a trailer. I'm betting that's about all Ludacris knows about Obama - and I'm betting Obama knows even less about him.

The lack of mentality in the news media never ceases to both shock and appall me.

*yawns*

Tell them when they get off drugs they can discuss intellectual subjects such as who's policies are better, who has character and substance and who will be ready on day one.

And that they are actually discussion the most prestigious job in America, the leader of the free world… JJJEEEEEZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

To the idiots who refer to Ludacris as a "high-school dropout" he actually attended COLLEGE at Clark Atlanta University where he studied communications!

Is that a veiled attempt at racism?

I think Tommy Lee supports Clinton. Loser for a Loser !

MCCAIN 08!!!!!
