Kayne West
Wow. Im watching the Katrina Relief telethon on NBC (please give all you can here ) and Kayne West came out and went on this political rant acussing the media of being racists, saying Pres Bush doesnt care about black people.
Now there is a time for pushing your opinions and there is a time to put politics aside. This was a time to put politics aside. Be Human! Be Helpful! Not Hurtful!

Maybe thats his way of being human? Saying George W. Bush doesn't care about black people isn't really politcal, its just crap, cause the truth is GW Bush doesn't care enough about poor black people, or poor people in general to do enough. I think he cares, to an extent. Kinda like everyone else who spend a dollar on a white poverty/cancer/whatever trendy plastic bracelet. People care, important people care, very few people care enough to do enough.
And ya know what? Its probably a good thing that people don't care enough, because if people actually started to really care they would begin to feel hopeless and useless.
And we kind of are hopeless and useless. not out of some inate uselessness and hopelessness but out of hopelessness and uselessness we create in ourselfs.
There is so much to care about and no one has the same priorities, and we spend some much time argueing about what is most important and how to fix things then we ever spend actually doing things. We are a nation. by and large. of watchers and donators.
Its hard. And annoying. Cause Kanye West was definately middle to upper middle class, he's only ever known the hunger he caused himself. So, yeah. And where was he during the election? Was he helping to get people registered, was he talking to kids about being informed and voting? Or was he doing his own things? Cause, its not like anyone was confused as to who George Bush was this time arround. So, he should have known that he thought GW Bush did not care about poor black people well before now. So, he can shut up now, cause he missed his time to talk about the president sucking.
But, at this stage saying negative things about president bush isn't politics, its fashion, and its hurt feelings and its a million other things. But, not politics.

The great thing about our country is we all get to say what we feel and believe. Whether you agree with him or not, he has the right to say what he thinks.
West has always said that he doesnt want to be black or white- he is RED. In your face, letting it all out.
Also, this is marketing at its best.
