>>Eskay why you set ninjas up like that one that Lupe post, you know damn well half the people if not more won’t even listen and now they are going around thinking he was on some fuck Obama shit, you know I normally don’t get on you ( pause ) about your headlines but that wasn’t a good move especially knowing your crowd as well as you do, most ninjas won’t listen but he spoke some real truthful shit in there that should of been the focus other than the one semi negative line and it wasn’t even really a shot it just didn’t move him

November 6th, 2008 at 4:33 pm
as for are cigarettes relaxing, yes they are to people who are addicted to nicotine, I smoked 2 1/2 packs of ‘ports a day for 7 years woke up one morning smoke the last one in the pack and haven’t had one since, that was 8 eight years ago, my argument for smoking was always it’s relaxing but thats because I was craving the nicotine and once I got it I was relaxed, if I smoked a cig now I’d get feel sick and light headed

My co-workers 7-year old son said he wanted to be president like Barack when he grows up. That’s all the change I need.
…. co-sign like common said 2 years ago he asked his daughter what she wanted to be and she said a dancer now she wants to and truly believes she can be president, or that radio personality lady who said her 10 year old son was watching CNN the other day and like that didn’t impress her enough he said he knows what he wants to be now when he grows up and he said he wants to be the first black person to win nascar, when she asked him when did he decide that he said he always knew thats what he wanted he just never thought it would be possible until now ……

Damn, i walk down the streets in wash heights and people are in a better mood, instead of niggas being grilled, head nods are being thrown.
even the whites are giving the head nod, shit everyone knows obama isnt gonna butt fuck people in the ass cause he came from the ghettos

ill be convinced he’s black when the NewYorkTimes has a front page picture of him lounging on the couch in the White House whilst wearing a du-rag … i guarantee you your President-elect does not own a du-rag … im not so sure he’s black … he looks like C.Thomas Howell in Soul Man …

.. plus again your missing the point 66 % of white people voted for Obama that means white people are looking past race and looking at the individual, so yeah of course there will still be some racist shit going on but racism is past on from generation to generation and our generation is moving past it, how fast it’s moving is an argument you can have with yourself, but black people didn’t get Obama elected on their own they needed a vast majority of white people to vote and they did and if thats how this generation is doing things it will only get better for the next generation and so forth …..

Look at what all he has accomplish so far adn than do something diff. in ur pathetic 2 blnt a day life..set goals and we can achieve them, sh!t, even look at eskay he sat a goal with his blog and acutally did something that is very influential in hip hop. When i started coming on Nahright, i was trying to get into pharmacy school and throught the last few years i did and grad. not pulling my on mandigo, but just saying some peoples negative ideas make me sick

that’s true but anyone who has a wife and kids he obviously loves and still puts himself out there knowing there are a lot of people who want to and could kill him obviously has his country and his fellow people in his best interest, and not his career. that says a lot to me.

.. maybe but I think you put too much emphasis on the headline anyway, actually no your right now that I think about it because if it was the old days where you let the post breath it wouldn’t matter cause people on clicking to say what out landish shit nahggers are saying but now with so many posts in such sort time people scroll through the front page and pick and choose and that will get peoples attention, I’m just taking all these journalism classes and thats basically the definition of ” yellow journalism ” which is not a good look for a journalist at all, but having said that I know you don’t consider yourself a journalist so you should have no worries about it, so I retract what I said I still wouldn’t of done it but I can’t be mad, watch out for pockets though cause you might see a red dot on your chest shining through a window real soon

he had already won the election … he didint need to keep explaining hisself over and over again … he denounced Wright’s comments years ago … the fact that he is still defending or denouncing him, is making him look like he’s trying to convince himself as well as the public of something … like he should be ashamed because Wright spoke the truth about white America …

Let me ask yall a question…
I was raised with very very religious parents, and now that i have gotten older, I tend to not believe in the religion as much. Of course this comes with great disdain from my parents and that kind of hurts, cuz i feel sometimes as if i’m letting them down or disappointing them. But I’m not being true to myself or them or my beliefs if I’m half-heartedly going through the motions.
I say that to say this… what makes you all (those that don’t believe in religion) not believe in religion?
Point me to some literature, prose, anything that you can, if you want

iceberg Slim, you sound brainwashed … you taking all these current events at face value, when by now you should know how corrupt the electoral process and American Politics is in general … go ahead and celebrate the illusion before your eyes … you will be among those who question your own eyes, when the reality of what is going on unfolds before you … peace be upon you, for you need more insight …
… agreed however I think it is important as hell because most people believe that illusion and according to them a black man is worthy of being president that means something ….

Some people never understand that the way to change the system is not to scream and yell at how the system is so imperfect, but to find a way to get directly inside the system and than let your influence, influence the system (supreme court judges, legislation passed and what not), some would rather O bama, stand and defend rev wright and loose the race, how cud he make any difference with a lost

What people fell to realize about religion is its whole thing is based of faith, is not tangible…so you will never touch it with your phys. but trust its there, no need to give it a title either

Smh if anything barack had it the worst
To black to hang with the whites and to white to hang with the blacks…
…… I can co-sign the shit out of this, I get it from both sides, I’m not black enough for some black people and I’m all black to some white people but guess what theres plenty of both, especially people my age, who accept me for which ever and both sides, black people act like being half white is an advantage but it holds you back the same ( see video clip of old white lately saying she doesn’t like Obama because he thinks they are all trash, bitch he, his mom and the grandma who raised him his whole life are white ) and some labck people shun you because your not black enough and act like you somehow got more of advantage than them, like thats my fault anyway that my black pops and white mom made me

oh yeah im happy to see my people celebrate a temporary W …
but what happens when he is inevitably exposed as an enemy of the common, working black man ?
then who celebrates ?
its like OJ … that nigga celebrated his W and we celebrated with him …
but eventually the celebration comes to a screeching halt …

Let me ask yall a question…
I was raised with very very religious parents, and now that i have gotten older, I tend to not believe in the religion as much. Of course this comes with great disdain from my parents and that kind of hurts, cuz i feel sometimes as if i’m letting them down or disappointing them. But I’m not being true to myself or them or my beliefs if I’m half-heartedly going through the motions.
I say that to say this… what makes you all (those that don’t believe in religion) not believe in religion?
Point me to some literature, prose, anything that you can, if you want
… next time you see my name on this screen ask me the same question I will happily answer my reasons for you but, of course those will be just my reasons, I can’t do it now cause I got bets to place for tonights games and then head out the door and I don’t have time to break it all down now, I’m sure Land can give you a head start though with the explanation of how all major religions are based off people worshiping the Sun ….

^Good looks. And please, if you see me on here, and I happen to forget to mention it (side effect of weed), please bring it up.

why would he be an enemy to the working black man?!
is he white? no
Does obama have a corrupt family of politicians steering him?! no
So far, has obama showed anything other than truthfull?! yes
So stop with the cynicism

i mean …… it should be so obvious to humanity … but a segment of humanity is so hellbent on hiding it from the misled masses … so that now when someone DOES hear actual facts , they’re like “NAHHHHHH … GTFOH” …
SMH at lost sheep being led by the sly foxes, straight to the slaughterhouse …

>>im glad everyone is all hyped that a black man is president, but if you think that shit is going to change for the average nigga on the street, you’re dreaming. reparations are not coming. white people will still put their hands on their purse/wallet when we walk by, and the price of gas is still going to be high.
I hate when people try to sound like they know something we don’t OR try to damper on the Obama parade by saying some obvious shit. Of course we know he’s not savior, just think about the historical context asshole.
