The "president of hip hop" warms up to Ron Paul

[jmdrake]

Okay, please ignore the corny background "beat boxing" and that fact that hip hop by definition has no "president" and instead look at what's happening here. A young black man with a youtube channel at first attacks Ron Paul for being racist, is challenged by Ron Paul supporters to "look up" Ron Paul, finds himself agreeing a lot with Ron Paul and declares at the end that Ron Paul is "not a racist" but is instead a "passionate true American" that "cares about this country" more than even becoming president.

Mad props to the Ron Paul supporters who contacted this guy. The must be familiar with How to Win Friends and Influence People (http://duckduckgo.com/?q=how+to+win+friends+and+influence+people). Go and do thou likewise.

I'm always a fan of people who do their homework.

Also, KRS One has a new album. Awesome.

For those that just want to watch the Ron Paul segment, it starts at 5:45 into the video.

this is from 2007 but still pretty good, I haven't seen it before...

I'd call this positive engagement by Ron Paul supporters. What we need more of.

I don't think much of someone who calls someone a racist without even knowing anything about the person to begin with.

The guy did his best to make amends and probably did a much greater thing because of it.

I applaud this man for correcting himself and sharing some truth in the process !

It was based on the limited information he had from a propaganda source.. At least he was good enough to look into it himself when people tried to call him out.
