"I'm fascinated by Rap and Hip-Hop"

Yes, it's true. John Kerry loves the black man. He is "fascinated by rap and hip hop." Fucking great. Doesn't fascination seem a bit demeaning. Fascinating is how a drunk 1st year anthropology student describes the Maori, or Lakota. John could you name a single song by Ludacris, can you tell me who Chuck D is? Tribe called quest? Outkast? How deep and unquenchable is his "fascination." Maybe I'm just beating up on J(F)K unfairly. But it sure seems like a blatant pander. I don't expect John Kerry to be a fan of KRS-One or X-Clan. It's fine to not like hip hop--it's worse to pretend.

Oh, and this from the man who said that he would like to be the second black president.

John Kerry, it's time to get your PANDER on! Maybe Dean will lend you his Wyclef.
