Ben Carson's Campaign Has A Rap Ad For Black Outreach

I just can't help but feel that if a white candidate did something to pander to white people so specifically and obviously -- the media would have a field day with it.

Republican OR Democrat. Either party, any candidate.

It's not that there's a rap song that's the problem -- it's that he specifically endorsed it. It would be a totally different matter if some rap artist took it upon himself and made one without Carson's blessing and it became viral and helped Carson.

It gets more and more like "American Idol", doesn't it?

Simply having an AA or any other non white ethnic person running for POTUS Is not a guarantee of support from those communities, Ted Cruz have as much support among Hispanics as Ben Carson have among AAs, Marco Rubio if he stopped acting the fool could bolster his support among them but it's unlikely given the overall direction of his party.

Oh right because he's not a Democrat....only Democrats get to have rap artists and lovely blonde actresses like Scarlet Johanssen to advertise on their behalf.....
this guy is just a liberal who would bash any GOP....

MB if Carson had just used the phony "yes we can" then he would have been okd........oh wait hes not a Democrat so he "hates black people"
The guy who made that video is an idiot.

Carson definitely isn’t one of the brothers


He will get, justifiably, very little black vote’s imo.


His conservative philosophy is detrimental to the economic reality of black people on the whole.

In fact his conservative philosophy is detrimental to white middle class and poor as well

Be more specific. What exactly have Democrats done to help the economic reality of black folks?

You mean like supporting illegal immigration which brings in more low skilled workers which directly compete against and suppress the wages of those that need help the most?

Or do you mean how the Democrats continually tell blacks that our children's education doesn't matter as much as the Teachers Union vote by not allowing parents who actually care about their children's education a say in where their child goes to school... a la school choice?

Considering how black Democrats run most major urban cities, school systems, police departments, city councils, etc I'm still trying to figure out what policies of the Democrats have helped black people. We have hard data from 50 years of voting almost exclusively for Democrats and all we have to show for it is 75% out of wedlock birth rate, piss poor graduation rates in urban schools, murder & mayhem in our inner cities, etc.

Sure, we have a bojangling black political class that has enriched themselves while carrying the water for white progressive Democrats, but I'm not seeing how that is helping the man on the street.

Q: Has the Obama administration started a program to use "taxpayer money" to give free cell phones to welfare recipients?
A: No. Low-income households have been eligible for discounted telephone service for more than a decade. But the program is funded by telecom companies, not by taxes, and the president has nothing to do with it.
FULL QUESTION
I had a former employee call me earlier today inquiring about a job, and at the end of the conversation he gave me his phone number. I asked the former employee if this was a new cell phone number and he told me yes this was his "Obama phone."

FULL ANSWER
Welfare recipients, and others, can receive a free cell phone, but the program is not funded by the government or taxpayer money, as the e-mail alleges. And it’s hardly new.

Second, did the reality fit with the perception people had of what he was going to do? As I recall even Cash for Clunkers didn't take older cars as my sister found out.

You mean Ronald Reagan phones?

The discounted, sometimes free, wireless services that started to become available to low income households in 2005, under George W. Bush’s administration, is an expanded and updated version of the Lifeline telephone service program that launched in 1985, under Ronald Reagan’s administration.

Ok so facts are liberally biased .. look Im not gonna sit here and tell you missteps and straight muckups never occurred and I have my own reasons for disliking some of Obama's policies but I don't have to go about making stuff about them or him, I remember in the same vein many laugh out loud when he suggested keeping your tires full will cut waste and carbon emission as a commonsense remainder >

and we get this grownup response.

What makes them assume it's aimed at 'African Americans?' The music is what most of the planet listen to if they're under 40 or so. Putting vocal samples over some beats has been pretty much a common thing since the late 1980s.

It isn't an 'African American' thing any more. Rainforest albums by S American pan-pipe bands have done the same thing. Middle-class white bands like Enigma were doing it in the 1990s. It might be rooted in US black culture of the 1970s, but it's completely universal these days. In fact, I'd go as far as to say it's clichéd and overused. Throw down some beats and play 'wise words' over the top to make them sound like something awesome...so predictable.


Whatever the case, the commercial will be aimed at the under 40s in general - it's just pop music.

It has to be "aimed at" whoever the drooling angry need it to be aimed at, to drive the hate and character assassination.

If Obama had put this out it would be a "new paradigm for peaceful loving communication around the world, elevating African Americans to a new prominence in global discourse", and Nobel # 2 would be in the mail.

The angry mob rushing to this thread never remembered to get mad about Hillary's famous "Ahhhhh ent nowezzz taaaarrrrred", which was one step below a black-face-minstrel show.

Nope, it's always the old "OK for me.....evil for thee".

Have no fear, the old "Uncle Tom" strategy doesn't seem to be working this time for the DNC and communists / socialists.

False. Hillary's "ahhhh ent nowezzz tarrrrred" couldn't have been any worse a lampooning of African Americans, but the media and DNC and dems of every color loved it. No complaints for Hillary. Or Bubba's, Carter's, Reid's, Biden's famous racist tidbits.

You really can't distinguish between "Factcheck" is a liberal outfit, funded by obvious dem / Soros people.....and "facts are liberal" ? Egad, that's sad.

Please don't lead off every reply with a grossly false statement. It dirties the conversation. I'll give the benefit of the doubt that this isn't the whole plan.......

Soulless? ummm what exactly is your definition of soul? To me a soulless person is someone who thinks that selling aborted baby parts is ok on any level or for any purpose. Just my opinion but Im pretty sure a lot of Americans would agree.

The point with Factcheck which I thought was subtle enough but now I see I must be more blunt about is that Factcheck being a project of Annenberg which Bill Ayers the former terrorist Weatherman Underground now Marxist college professor is tainted by liberal bias
Is that clear enough?

Please take note that while Ayers has dropped violence as a method to achieve goals, he has switched to brainwashing through academics.

I would go so far as to say that Factcheck is criminal. A few years ago, I personally contacted them about an 'error' they stated was fact. I provided them with the evidence of their error and asked that they correct it, but they did not. They covered for corruption in state and federal government.

Factcheck is a loathsome, criminal organization.
