Hillary: Kanye ‘Might Want To Wait’ Because ‘I’ll Be Running for Reelection’
Kanye West turned heads at the MTV VMA’s in August when he said he was going to run for president in 2020. The president, however, offered a few tongue-in-cheek advice on how to achieve a successful political career. “So you’ve just to be cool with that”, said Obama clearly poking fun at the Kardashians.
West is married to reality TV star Kim Kardashian.
After a weekend of glitzy West Coast celebrity fundraisers starring Kanye West, Jamie Foxx and Star Wars director J.J. Abrams, President Barack Obama has no intention of staying on the political sidelines during the 2016 campaign.
Although she has yet to announce her running mate for her upcoming bid for the White House, she’s got her sights set on a very famous potential vice president for the next one. “Saying that you have a “Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy” – that’s what’s known as “off-message” in politics”, Obama said. Obama asked if West really thought Americans would elect a black guy from Chicago with a amusing name.
West recently performed at a DNC fundraiser at The Warfield in San Francisco.
He joked that the entertainer was going to jump into the increasingly complicated race, to replace Republican Speaker of the House of Representatives John Boehner.
The first round of the 2015 Democratic presidential debates are about to kick off, but one Democrat who isn’t anxious about snagging a seat in the White House anymore is President Obama.
