He fails on so many levels in terms of outwardly expressing his political / social/ ideological beliefs. I noticed in his new song he mentioned not believing in voting and like you noted, there are MASSIVE logical leaps in his explanation. My thing is this... be ignorant... dont vote, but dont spread that dumb ass activity to vulnerable teens (18, 19) who think they are doing an act of social protest by not voting. The reality is this... dont vote, dont complain. All lupe is doing is whining and complaining and not implementing change. *sigh*<br /><br />xx<br />josie<br />www.straightNOchase.comjosie reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07539248866918902322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3279907058741100479.post-8041029371691956292011-02-27T09:58:15.048-08:002011-02-27T09:58:15.048-08:00EXACTLY!

There are plenty of candidates whose platforms may better match his ideals. it's the not voting at all that's just wack in my opinionDubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14354252500874868042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3279907058741100479.post-68279890421220067842011-02-27T07:38:35.596-08:002011-02-27T07:38:35.596-08:00He's really starting to aggravate me you can l...He's really starting to aggravate me you can listen to Outty 5000 and he gives you a voice of someone who wants to change the system from the bottom up. Then on Words Never Said he says he didnt vote because he doesnt like Obama, like there werent other people to vote for. His view on politics are turning into that of every other person. He talks a good game but when it comes to actions I dont know if Lupe will be at the front line for change.RawrSavvyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10540274626788380879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3279907058741100479.post-76841322712077102142011-02-27T07:37:04.086-08:002011-02-27T07:37:04.086-08:00Damn son.Damn son.Adina Renée.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11582479275544465655noreply@blogger.com
