Barack Obama did an interview with yesterday with Sway, MTV's official friendly ambassador from the land of hip hop. A viewer asked him about towns that try to pass laws banning baggy pants. First Obama said those laws are a "waste of time." But then he added, "brothers should pull up your pants!" Is Barack Obama a fashion icon, or your grumpy old dad—or is he both?!?! [UPDATE: Clip of the interview below!]:

Obama said such laws were "a waste of time," but didn't hold back on his own view on the fad.

"Having said that, brothers should pull up their pants," he declared. "You are walking by your mother, your grandmother, your underwear is showing. What's wrong with that? Come on."

"Some people might not want to see your underwear - I'm one of them," he added.

If anybody who actually wears baggy pants heard this from any other presidential candidate in history, their reaction would be, quote, "Whatever." But Obama may finally be able to make some real headway in our nation's deadlock over just how much sag is allowable amongst our youth. Having Obama say this is kind of the equivalent of having Bill Cosby say it to Theo's friends 20 years ago: He's not an old dude who's trying to be down, he's just an older dude who's naturally cool and who demands your respect because of that. Therefore you just may see some cats pulling up their jeans for Obama.

He also said Sway's dreads "looked tight," which is just one more reason he is the coolest politician everrrrr.

I watched it. He came off pretty natural saying "tight." I'm proud of him. Now I know he's ready to lead our country.
 
[quote name='KingBroly']Honestly, that's the best thing he's said during this whole campaign.[/QUOTE]

Naw.

The coolest thing he's going to say is when he wins, gets up on a table, and proudly proclaims he's the HNIC.

First off all, The word Brother is spell wrong, its not " Brotha or Brothas " Its Brother or Brothers which refers to all men of the human race. Second, Obama is right about how the law is a waste of time, and last, Obama is wrong about people's appearance. People should wear whatever they like, because its not about someone's appearance.

Wow you are the whitest person ever
 
Seriously, pull up your pants...

Unless you are a hot chick and wearing a thong. A little sag is not only acceptable, but encouraged when appropriate. :lol:

Wow if he is serious and actually has the power to do so, I may have voted for him for that alone.

fuck the BCS right in the eye.


Do you have a clip of that?
 
MTV only cares about the most vital of issues.:roll:

As an aside, the reason why the "gangstas" had their pants pulled down was because when you become someone's bitch in prison he pulls your pants down and writes his name on your boxers so others can know whose bitch you are. Either that or because you were not given a belt because you're on suicide watch and they're afraid you'll use it to hang yourself.
