: It looks like Akon is taking today's election ,i>very seriously. MediaTakeOut.com has learned that in a recent interview, the Senegalese immigrant claims that he'll relinquish his citizenship if McCain wins.
Here's the direct quote:
"If he [Obama] doesn't get into office, I'm gonna change my citizenship. I'm moving back to Africa. You can hold me to that. I'm afraid to live there if he [McCain] is President. The decisions he makes scare me: he's making selfish decisions, he's doing whatever it takes to get into office...Can't say that we completely disagree with his logic....If the people don't see [that life in America will deteriorate under McCain], then that's a dangerous place to be for the next four years. I can't even envision how bad it's gonna be. I see it now - like, I'm driving down the highway, and I see cars parked with their emergency lights on because [people] can't afford to buy gas. You've got families walking, carrying infants to the next exit to take a taxi, because the taxi will get them home cheaper than the gas."
Here's my counsel to you. If brother (Barack Obama) wins, there will be more joy in the hearts of so many. More than we have ever experienced probably in our lives. People who have lived 70, 75, 80, 85, 90 years will not mind dying because they will say in death, I saw what I never thought I would see in my lifetime.
But then others are going to go out in the street and celebrate with wild joy and revelry as though it was the Philadelphia Phillies winning the World Series, but that's not wise. That's not wise because your joy is somebody else's sadness and in your moment of revelry, there are those who will be so angry they can't get to him (Barack Obama) but they can get to you. And if you're out late at night just walking the street happy and drunk, you smoked a few of those funny cigarettes, you're just so happy and overjoyed.
Then someone rolls up on you, they don't tell you who they are but they're undercover and you're in a spot where they can just take your life. Don't think that some are not willing to do that with what we've heard coming from talk radio about people really hateful and would kill him (Barack Obama), but if they can't get to him and you are out drunk and partying 2, 3 o'clock in the morning when you should have been home.
How many Black people may die on that night across this nation. And just suppose the election is stolen. In your frustration, are you going to go out now and set fires and loot and act crazy. Not only is the S.W.A.T. Team ready and the National Guard but the Federal troops are already "posse comitatus" which forbids the Federal troops fr interfering in domestic affairs that's already put to the side now. If you act the fool you will be slaughtered.
So my counsel to you would be if he wins, rejoice intelligently. Don't overdo it. The Quran says it like this, 'when Allah's help and victory comes and you see men entering the religion of Allah in companies celebrate the praise of Thy Lord and ask His protection.' Well I'm not now talking about a victory in terms of men and women coming to the ranks of Islam in companies. I'm talking about a victory that we never expected but now we're full of expectancy of because we've heard the polls. If you win, celebrate the praise of God who brought us fr a mighty long way and made us in a time like this to ascend to the highest post in one of the greatest countries in the history of the world.
Don't act foolishly because Obama's rise is the rise of all of us who would be risen by his rise. Who would be inspired by his rise. These young children that are here who probably want an NBA contract or an NFL contract and want to be singers & comedians. Now they say well the sky is the limit. I can be what I want to be. Well, that's a key that can't ever go back in the box again."
DO YOU BOO! BUT HE WILL GET ELECTED. GO OBAMA!!!
WIN AN IPOD WHEN YOU PURCHASE "BLIND TEMPTATIONS" THE SEDUCTION OF SEX, LIES & BETRAYAL FROM WWW.AMAZON.COM AND GO TO WWW.LESLEYHAL.COM TO LEAVE YOUR RECIEPT INFORMATION DRAWING WILL BE ON JANUARY 20TH SAME DAY AS BARACK WILL BE SWORN IN AS OUR NEXT PRESIDENT!!!
It's amazing how blacks in the lower part of the continent of North America fight to call themselves African-American, but yet still when it comes to showing respect to non- american blacks like true Africans like Akon, they are so racist and disrespectful and prejudice and have stupid stereotypical things to say about another black person like "GO BACK TO AFRICA"; they might as well be white; and american blacks should just refer to themselves as blacks and not African, because truly they don't know what it's like to be African.
I totally can understand where he is coming from. I wish so bad - I had enough money to live anywhere in the world I wanted to because if McCain wins - I don't really want to live here either. I know there are a LOT of worst places to live - but with him as President - there will be a LOT of better places to live in this world, too.
Unfortunately - Black people are just as racist as White people. The Chinese are investing heavily in Africa while it is in turmoil - while we don't invest in anything African. I predict a Chinese Restaurant on EVERY corner in Africa within the next 20 years. It's sad people - you need to get with your roots and your ancestors. That's why we are in the predicament we are in today - because if you don't know where you came from - you don't know where you are heading.
WHO EVER VOTES FOR McCain IS A PIECE OF RACIST [EXPLETIVE]|SMALL MINDED M|O|F|U|C|K|A|S| WANT TO KEEP THAT CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS MENTALITY S|H|I|T| GOING|YOU MURDERING THE WHOLE F|U|C|K|I|N| COUNTRY SELFISH A|S|S| F|U|C|K|S| Their either Voting for McCain because he's white or their rich|Lets cut the B|U|L|L|S|H|I|T| I WASN'T BORN IN AMERICA YESTERDAY|
@Xquizit
I agree with you 100%,most of these self hating losers are so brainwashed and pathetic.They actually think that the whole continent(the second largest on the planet to be exact)"The Motherland of all human beings"they think that all of the countries on that continent are poor,having wars,and dying from man made diseases.
There are prosperous countries in Africa,which by the way is the richest place in the world.You have caucasians running to live in Africa and enjoy the tropical locations and natural wealth of the land but in america,slave minded idiots think that they are some how better which is a damn shame.Turn off you televisions,and get first hand education about other parts of the world.Passports are not that expensive and most of you spend money on worthless trash I'm sure.
Save up your money and cross the Atlantic Ocean and find out the truth.I bet you will come back with a different attutide.I guess you silly fools think every country in Asia is having wars and selling their daughters into sex slavery too don't you? No you don't think that about the continent of Asia because most of you wouldn't dare think of dissing all Asians.Most of you feel anybody that is not black is better than you.Why disrespect a whole continent?
"A tree without roots is dead".If you feel so disconnected from Africa then you are disconnected from the essence of yourself.That is the origin(the beginning)and you can't escape that fact.America is not heaven you know,but black people are universal and we live in all 4 hemispheres of this Earth.Everywhere we are on this planet,we contribute our talents in that society and we are truly beautiful but many of us choose to act ugly.
America got it's blueprint from Africa,why do you think you see obelisks,pyramid duplications,eye of Ra on the american dollar,and many other monuments duplicated from the original statues and momuments of Ancient Africa? Everywhere you look,if you have knowledge of self and are educated you see Africa in America because of all of the stolen knowledge and mathematics in this place.
BTW:For all of you self hating hyprocites,If it wasn't for Africans there would be no white house for Barack Obama to live in if he becomes president.Which by the way Barack Obama is half Black(his father is an African from Kenya). Do you dislike him too? Africans built that house just like they built the majority of this country.I will never spit on my ancestors,ever.
Ignorance is death,Knowledge and Wisdom is Life
I hope those who actually read this can relate to the truth of my personal essay.We've got to do better,but I have accepted the fact that alot of people(those without color racists caucasians) and those of the darker hue are just not gonna make it in the next cycle on this planet.
Many will be left behind,and those of us who care about Life,Truth,and Respect will progress far beyond the self hating,drama seeking,coach roaches who live off of filth
Man I'm so tired of ignorant MoFo's walking around talkin that sh*t. Most of these dumbasses don't even have a passport. On top of having enough bread to up and move to a whole new country or continent. If McLAME wins then I will just have to deal. I will still be here chillin with my FAMILY and gettin paper....
Africa is the most beautiful place in the world to me. If I moved to Africa today - the only thing I would miss about the USA is my Family. Coco - you make some good points and I definitely feel what you are saying. The world news only concentrates on the bad things happening in Africa - naturally. But as far as Europeans enjoying Africa to the fullest - they are while we continue to think only savages live there. Get a clue folks and educate your children about our Ancestors, etc. and AFRICA.
SMH yall are so ignorant and stupid when it comes to Africa. Africa is not a city it's an entire continent. Just because some areas are bad doesn't mean they're all bad.
There are MANY other people who vowed to leave this country if Obama isn't elected. My classmate already has his passport ready. People are serious about this.
ALL I KNOW IS GOD-FORBID MKKKAIN/PALIN WINS, WE SHO DON'T NEED HIM TO PASS AWAY IN OFFICE B/C COULD YOU ACTUALLY SEE THAT HOCKEY MOM RUNNING THE NATION!!!!
AND REGARDING AFRICA: TO MY FELLOW AMERICANS ESPECIALLY AFRO-AMERICANS; AFRICA IS A VERY PROSPEROUS COUNTRY. DON'T BELIEVE THE HYPE OF WHAT MEDIA DISPLAYS TO YOU THROUGH THE TUBE(AFRICA'S POVERTY)IT IS SUCH THE OPPOSITE. IT'S A NO-WONDER A HIGH PERCENTAGE OF US ARE IGNORANT TO WHAT AFRICA HAS TO OFFER B/C MOST OF US DON'T TRAVEL OUTSIDE OUR BLOCKS. AMERICA GOTCHA GOOD BY STILL SUPPRESSING YOU TO STRESS YOUR LIVES OUT AND STAY PUT ON YOUR BLOCKS. EXPLORING AND TRAVELING WILL EDUCATE YOU BEST AND NOT THE POVERTY-STRICKEN AFRICA THE TUBE HAS ONLY DISPLAYED. ISH..MY RELATIVES COME HERE TO VISIT ONCE OR TWICE A YEAR AND SPEND $1,OOO DOLLARS LIKE THEY'RE DOLLAR BILLS, [EXPLETIVE] THEY DON'T NEED CREDIT OVER THERE. YOUR OWN PROPERTY IS YOUR OWN AND GOVERNMENT DON'T TAKE FROM YOU NOR DO THEY PAY TAXES, YOUR LAND IS YOUR LAND AND YOURS TO KEEP!! MY UNCLE ONCE TOLD ME FROM AFRICA; "MAN, IN ORDER TO MAKE A LIVING IN AMERICA, YOU CAN NOT AFFORD TO BE LAZY AND MAKE A LIVING, OVER IN AFRICA, YOU CAN AFFORD TO BE LAZY AND STILL MAKE A DECENT LIVING...DAMN , THAT'S THE LIFE!!! NEXT I'LL BE CRYING THE AFRICAN DREAM INSTEAD OF THE SO-CALLED AMERICAN DREAM (WHAT DOES THE AMERICAN DREAM MEAN ANYWAY WHEN IT APPARENTLY DOESN'T APPLY FOR ALL AMERICANS?) AFRICA IS A PROSPEROUS NATION!!!!LEARN IT!! MOMMA AFRICA!!!!!
people trip me out.b/c if we were actually born somewhere else and mccain got elected yall, would say the same thing. Yeah maybe his voice is a lil irritating, but what does that have to do with what he said. Just like don't nobody care if you stay or move either..He don't care nothin about you either. He will be in africa paid, while you will still be here broke.
Black people are lost. You have someone -who looks like us- telling you his honest opinion and you ignorant biddies call him degrading names. And try to talk about the whole CONTINENT OF AFRICA; when a lot of your asses don't even have a PASSPORT! If you got rid of your avatars, I would swear this was Stormfront, or some other white racist forum. White folks got you trained good...
4 real tho, us black folks need 2 quit sayin stuff like dat. We all came from Africa, as well as our ancestors. As far as his skin tone, I think itz beautiful. Lookz better than light skin on a man 2 me. I am caramel-colored, but I luv dark-skinned dudes, so aint nuthin wrong with dis dude color. Black iz in....
