Kanye West Ignorantly Tries To Defend Obama, Fails Miserably... [VIDEO] Once again, rapper Kanye West has gone on a passionate rant about race relations in the United States. And once again, his arguments are completely ridiculous. According to West, Obama has been facing issues in the White House because black people dont have connections to rich people. Man, let me tell you something about George Bush and oil money and Obama and no money, West commented. People want to say Obama cant make these moves or hes not executing. Thats because he aint got those connections. Black people dont have the same level of connections as Jewish people. Black people dont have the same connection as oil people. Watch the video below and tell us what you think. Is Kanye just making excuses for Obama?
