MAG COVERS: GQ NAMES OBAMA GAME CHANGER OF THE YEAR
Tuesday, November 18, 2008

GQ named President-elect Barack Obama one of its “Men of the Year” and called him “Game Changer of the Year” in the December issue, which went to print just before the election.
The issue includes an article written by Sen. Ted Kennedy. Check out a snippet below:
Whether he wins or loses, Barack Obama has ushered in a new era of American politics with a limitless vision of a better future that will endure for many years to come. Through his candidacy, Obama has provided a glimpse of a stronger, better, fairer America, where change comes from the bottom up, where we all come together to meet the great challenges of our time. He has inspired millions of new voters of all ages, races, and incomes to lend their voices for real change. For in this man, Americans can see not just the audacity but the possibility of hope for the country that is yet to be.
The magazine’s website also features a photographic portfolio of the men and women of the 2008 campaign. The “Men of the Year” issue hits stands November 25.

Beyonce said (I’m not quoting that girl) that she wants to perform at the Inauguration of Barack Obama. The NERVE of her! She thinks she will permote her sex filled album by singing at the inauguration of our Commander in Chief, Barack Obama,
WE ARE NOT GOING TO TAKE IT !!!
If you Oppose of Beyonce performing at the inauguration,
Please sign the Petition below
It’s a legitimate site which will keep her from singing at such a momentous and history making event.

@27 STOP IT!! Obama’s daughters Sasha and Malia are supposed to be Beyonce fans, so I don’t see the big deal.
Get off your moral high horse.

@27
GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE WITH THAT. WHAT THE HELL MAKES YA’LL THINK SHE IS GOING TO PERFORM SOMETHING LIKE “SINGLE LADIES” OR “GET ME BODIED” AT THE INAUGARATION?? SHE WAS IN VERY HIGH SUPPORT OF OBAMA TOO. HER, DIDDY, MARY J, AND JAY WERE THE DAMN SUPER FRIENDS GOING HARD TO CAMPAIGN FOR OBAMA.I DON’T THINK IT’S A PUBLICITY ACT AT ALL. I’M SURE SHE’ S WOULD SING SOME SONG THAT SHOW AMERICAN PRIDE. I CAN’T BELIEVE SOME OF YOU ARE DUMB ENOUGHT TO BELIEVE OTHERWISE

@ 27 youre a dumb idiot, Beyoncé said sh is open and will accept if they want her to sing, she didnt say I have to sing to the innauguration and get your facts correct, The Obamas are Beyoncé HUGE FANS they attended the beyoncé expereince live and salute her backstage, youre too dumb damn! Beyoncé really does something toyou haters, you got too much time to want to stop this woman who is talented, beautifful and succesful, just WHY? Its not like she cant sing OMG youre are too much
Obama really deserves this but we all know this is photoshopped from his teeth to his lips…. Im still proud

Speaking as someone who was born with snow on the rooftop, there’s nothing wrong with gray hair. And if you take care of it right, it tends to give off a nice healthy shine.

The media is going to make me poor trying to collect all these Obama newspapers and magazines, lol.
Obama looks so much like Denzel in that photo.

“Game Changer of the Year” what great title!
If there was a movie made about Obama’s life…and there will be one….Will Smith or Denzel could certainly play Mr. President.

Obama doesn’t need to dye his hair! You know how much the media would get on him dying his hair, lol! It’ll grey out evenly and he’ll still be good looking
