MAG COVERS: BARACK OBAMA COVERS ROLLING STONE
Barack Obama is covering Rolling Stone magazine for the second time. The Democratic Presidential nominee reveals that he has ‘eclectic tastes’ in music as he takes the magazine through what he has on his iPod.
The politician says he is a fan of Bob Dylan, Yo-Yo Ma, Sheryl Crow and hip-hop star Jay-Z. Obama also says he is a fan of the Rolling Stones, Elton John, Stevie Wonder and jazz greats like Miles Davis and John Coltrane. He also said he has been thrilled to get support from musicians such as Bruce Springsteen and Dylan.
Rolling Stone doesn’t post the full article online, but they definitely have some snippets.

Obama 08 2nd
There goes the man right there….
Obama for president
Barack Obama is such a well rounded man. He’ll make a great president.
He is a very admirable man. A person’s musical taste can tell you alot about them, so I like the fact that his musical collection is so diverse. I really think he has the intellect, and the proper agenda to be the next leader of the country. You Go Boy!!!!
I am so proud of this man. He is so well spoken, charismatic, intelligent. He needs to be president, if for no other reason than Im tired of old white men running our country
THE MAN KNOWS GOOD MUSIC, THATS FOR SURE!
YOU GO OBAMA, dont he look like a drawn cartoon character, his features are very strong.
see..not only is he a great candidate as far as his views on the issues in america, but he’s a frikkin rockstar as well…….
OBAMA ’08 BITCHES!!!!
Aww, our next president is so cute-we like some of the same artist
I can see Fox News With the Headline: “Obama Listens to ex Drug Dealer Jay-Z’s violent music”!
@#8….
don’t start with that ‘strong features’ bullshit!!! If you can stick to something good to say, the STFU!!! I may be coming off a little strong, but after all the bullshit he and his family were put through just to acquire the Democratic Nomination, I’m just not ready to be making ANY kind of jokes about this man!
typo…if you CAN’T stick to something good to say…….
WHOA! He likes Jay Z??? He has good taste in music!!!
those ears!!! lol. but he’s one good lookin black man.
Barack is a has a CULTURED EAR,
BARACK THE VOTE!
He’s so freakin cool
Obama for president ’08 its time for a change
I love the cover and me some Obama I am ready for change.
@Beauty QT yes he is a Jay fan like me lol
Obama Baby!!
Sup girly! I spoke to you (so I thought) on a previous post and you didn’t respond. I’m like “what did I do?” Beware..you have an impostor!
I knew you would appreciate tha fact that he like Hova!
LMAO @ #11 D-San That is soo true.
Great cover. I love it. I bet you he’ll get a 3rd cover, whether he wins or not. Eeew can you imagine McCain on the cover of Rolling Stone…NOT.
Mark my words, those racist white Republicans and news reporters are going to use the fact that he listens to Jay Z against him. It’s only a matter of time before they link Jay Zs lyrics with what Obama stands for, only to tear him down.
They hate to see such an eloquent, intelligent, well dressed, well mannered and most of all popular African American as the Presdential nominee. It kills them so they try and dissect every aspect of his life and put it under a microscope in oder to make him look bad.
@ 11 I so didn’t see your post…lol
My sentiments exactly!
Lol@ 11!
Obama’s a pop icon. That face needs to be on our dollar!
lol @ 11….thats soooo true
go obama
our next president is a rock star!
With gas prices at $5 a gallon and the economy and in shambles, the republicans don’t stand a chance.
Obama 08′
Beauty QT I saw it yesterday but sometimes I don’t post until late.
I know about the other “Dame” who ever it is post every blue moon. That is why I put extra stuff behind my name sometimes. How are you?
Lol at 11 your right they pick on anything he does.
OBAMA 08! Please you all get out and vote in November! It’s one thing to talk it, but we need to show and prove PLEASE VOTE! This man has it together, and I respect him so much. President Obama and First lady Michelle:)
Love it Love it Love it! Barack the vote in November ya’ll. Dont just talk about it…Be about it!
lmao@11….true that!
but i would love to see him listening to hova rocking his head singing “BIG PIMPIN!’lol
BARACK 08!
Welcome Mr President!
# 11 you know i thought about that too right? Fuck FOX news and Fuck Bill O’reily.
@ DAME, I’m cool. I have nothing to do at work, so I’m on the CL again. You know I play peek-a-boo on this site! lol
After I went back and viewed a previous post, I realized that there was 2 DAME’s. lol
BLOOD, SWEAT, AND TEARS: Beyond the Veil of Fraternity Pledging…. “pharaoh jones”
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fg4CEm0ebPk
pharaoh jones tour:
The challenge of moral development when subject to “group think” pressures…
The sexual use of women for the purposes of male-bonding…
The use of ritual in human development and socialization…
The college man’s debt to chivalry in a world aspiring to gender equality…
How does a man maintain his personal integrity when faced with these and other challenges?
S Y N O P S I S
After a live step show salute to Black women, Willis Jones and his 4 line brothers are facedwith a strong challenge to their moral consciousness, respect for women, and knowledgeof self. With community, leadership, and service as the cornerstones of his fraternity, Butch, the Dean of Pledges, tests one of the most distinguishing elements of a man for others: strength of character. Does “pharaoh willis jones” possess the moral fiber RA is
looking for? Will he sacrifice his principles for the sake of unity or stand his ground alone?
How does one maintain personal integrity amidst the pressure of unified thinking gone astray? The pharaohs take you on a journey through one of their most challenging nights on line. Will they rise and pledge to be the men they say they are? Individuals vs. the group, right vs. wrong, Morality vs. Immorality: these are the issues OBC explores in this high-energy short.
B O O K I N G O P T I O N S
pharaoh jones is a provocative look behind the wall of Black fraternity life and the character building challenges initiates into this world face. It offers social commentary in a context that sparks dialogue, debate, and, most importantly, change.

The Future in Ink.
I love seeing our next President!!!
you sheepish people
he is soo fine!
man a president who is a fan of hov and stevie is my kind of president!!!!!!!!!!! obama 08 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! no but seriously u guys go out and vote!!!!!!!111
For the ones here talking about JAY Z lyrics, you obviously are ONLY moving to the beat and NOT listening to the WORDS.
UPGRADE yourself, please
Anways, YES WE CAN
OBAMA FO LIFE!!!!
“WHOA! He likes Jay Z??? He has good taste in music!!!” He has bad taste in music!
he must really dig jay-z (which i believe he does) to throw him in that mainstream mix. Obama you lyin’!!!! Tell me how a 47-year old black man even if he was raised by white folks in Hawaii….have no Commodores, no Chaka, no Motown (except Stevie) no 80′s hip-hop, no Luther etc., etc.!!! (He probably got P.E. up in there, but can’t tell nobody that!!!!) but a bunch of very mainstream approved oldhead white rockers. Mind you, I’m a few years younger than Obama and I can can sing just about every 70′s corny rock ballad, but c’mon. Dude married a chick from the South Side, lived in Chicago, was with an activist black church for 20 years, SORRY…I don’t buy it.
AND NO PRINCE!!!!! For that time period, that era, impossible. He really is a clandestine white man if he ain’t got no Prince up in there. Say what you want people, you can tell a man more by his musical tastes than anything else….
NO Michael or Janet???
I know he tryna keep it accessible for the “mainstream” but WE KNOW BETTER. Or else I’m hafta personally send a brother my collection of Prince bootlegs. Oooh, can I say that on here, Prince might sue. I mean my Prince collection of music Prince personally approved for release.
I’m buying that.
lol @ 11. You know FoxNews will turn something in that article into some fake controversy.
He looks great on the cover. Obama 08! and 2012 lol
LOL@11 SO TRUE, BUT LETS HOPE U AINT GIVEN THOSE BIGOTS ANY IDEAS.
FOX NEWS IS SO POISONOUS. THEIR HATEFULNESS AND HYPOCRISY TOWARDS ANYONE WHO DOESNT COMPLY BY THEIR STANDARDS NEVER CEASES TO AMAZE ME. BILL O’REILLY AND ANN COULTER ESPECIALLY—I MEAN THEY HAV THE RIGHT TO THINK WHAT THEY WANT, BUT MAKE SUCH HATEFUL AND EXAGGERATED AND BIASED REPORTS WHICH ARE SICKENING. THEY LACK ALL PROFESSIONALISM AS BROADCAST JOURNALISTS.
Obama ’08…Please continue to raise him and his family up in prayer throughout this time!

“Eeew can you imagine McCain on the cover of Rolling Stone…NOT.”

LMAO IMAGINE HIS HORRID ASS WIFE CINDY MCCAIN ON THE COVER?? SHE’S NO MICHELLE OBAMA.
LOVE LOVE LOVE HIM!!!! AND HE HAS GREAT TASTE IN MUSIC. I WILL BE GETTING THIS ISSUE FOR SURE!!!
OBAMA 08!!!!!!
i love him.
Im sorry but I think Mr. Obama is just a fine chunk of man….
What a great picture of Obama!!!
There are some of us black folks who don’t believe that Obama is the second-coming of Jesus Christ. Frankly, his voting record just doesn’t line up with me. This man believe is partial-birth murder; he doesn’t believe in any type of oiling drilling in this country; he want to “talk” to leaders who will at a given moment cut an American throat. But I guess as long as so smooth talking black man, I should follow the herd. I don’t like McCain, but I am sure in the hell ain’t voting for Obama.
THOSE WHO SUPPORT OBAMA DONATE TO HIS CAMPAIGN. EVEN A SMALL AMOUNT AS $5.00 WILL BE APPRECIATED AND WISELY USED, AND IF YOU CAN DONATE MORE THAN THAT, THAT WOULD ALSO GREATLY APPRECIATED. WE ALL KNOW THAT THE REPUBLICAN ATTACK ADS ARE COMING, AND IN ORDER FOR OBAMA TO BE ABLE TO AFFORD AD TIME ON TV TO RESPOND, AND DEFEND HIS NAME, AND REPUTATION HE WILL NEED OUR HELP.
OBAMA WANTED HIS CAMPAIGN TO BE FUNDED BY THE VOTERS, SO LET’S DO OUR SAMLL PART, SO THAT WE DEMOCRATS CAN REALLY SAY THAT WE SUPPORTED OUR CANDIDATE, AND THAT THROUGH OUR HELP WE PUT OUR PRESIDENT IN THE WHITE HOUSE, TO WORK FOR US.
CALLING ALL DEMOCRATS: OBAMA WANTED HIS CAMPAIGN TO BE FUNDED BY THE VOTERS, SO LET’S DO OUR SMALL PART, SO THAT WE DEMOCRATS CAN REALLY SAY THAT WE SUPPORTED OUR CANDIDATE, AND THAT THROUGH OUR HELP WE PUT OUR DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENT IN THE WHITE HOUSE, TO WORK FOR US.
ANY SMALL AMOUNT YOU DONATE WILL HELP, A DONATION AS SMALL AS $5.00 WOULD BE APPRECIATED BY OBAMA. VISIT HIS WEBSITE AND DONATE WHATEVER YOU CAN AFFORD. ANY AMOUNT HELPS HIM GET HIS MESSAGE OUT, HIS POLICY DETAILS OUT , AND HE WILL NEED TO DO THAT WITH TV ADS, AND FLYERS, AND OBAMA MUST ALSO BE PREPARED FOR THE ADS THAT WILL COME FROM THE REPUBLICANS AS THIS RACE GOES ON, YOU KNOW THEY WILL ATTACK HIM, AND IN ORDER FOR OBAMA TO BE ABLE TO AFFORD AD TIME ON TV TO RESPOND TO THESE ATTACKS, AND DEFEND HIS NAME, AND REPUTATION, HE WILL NEED OUR HELP.
DONATE ANY AMOUNT YOU CAN AFFORD, NO AMOUNT IS TOO SMALL, ALL AMOUNTS OBAMA WOULD APPRECIATE.

UM…NO TALKING TO MIDDLE EASTERN LEADERS IS BETTER THAN FLAT OUT MILLITARY INTERVENTION. WHY HAS ISLAMIC FUNDAMENTALISM AND TERRORISM IN THAT PART OF THE WORLD BEEN WORSE THAN EVER, EVER SINCE DUBYA WAS IN OFFICE?? VIOLENCE PROVOKES PEOPLE AND UNFORTUNATELY GIVES THOSE JEHADI LOONS AN INCENTIVE (A POOR EXCUSE WITH NO HUMANITY OF COURSE) TO BLOW THEMSELVES UP.
Get it Barack. Love the cover
Barack the vote!
