So, What Is The Hip-Hop Reference That Obama Made?


I'm a little slow, so I didn't catch the Jay-Z reference that Barack Obama made in the video I posted yesterday....


Of course, Jay-Z's lyrics here might work nearly as well....
I got 99 problems, but a bitch ain't one - hit me!
The fact that Obama can even make a Jay-Z reference in a public venue, and be widely-understood, tells a lot about the dog-whistle era of politics we live in now. This is better than even George Bush's anti-abortion "Dred Scott" moment from the October, 2004 debate with John Kerry.

Barack Obama for President!
