No? But he threw Sistah Soulja under the bus in order to gain the support of Reagan Democrats...


Or his wife Hilary using her "slave voice" whenever she is in front of a Black church....


Point being...Politicians gonna politick....


If pandering is shameful to you we could go down a never ending list if folks on both sides of the aisle that make a practice of it....
IF Clinton playing sax wasnt an example of pandering whyd you post it :facepalm:

This is like when Paul Ryan said he likes Rage Against the Machine.

At best it shows that they're just pandering to a group and they actually don't like what they say that they do. At worst it shows that they don't understand the music they listen too.

Paul Ryan can't like Rage against the machine when he is part of the machine. Marco Rubio can't like Tupac if he's in favour of the "war against drugs" that puts 12% of the population in 90% of its prisons.

Nah a lot of cacs like RATM. They completely pay no attention to the lyrics and just like how is sounds.

You damn right he threw her under the bus. He threw her under the bus not to gain support of Reagan Democrats, but to keep support of normal people. She was saying some shyt a lot of people had a problem with.

It was a clear example imo....


I just respected the fact that Sheff didn't want to accept it so I gave more examples...

You dont know what pandering is, clearly. Bill Clinton been playing the sax for a long ass time, he didnt just start doing it to appeal to black voters. Republicans are doing a complete 180 on their platform and saying lots of things they never said before. They lost minorities in a big way and now realize they cant win without us, in turn they push out a Latino talking about NWA and Tupac. Can you not see the difference here? 2 weeks ago they were all championing Romney and now they cant run away from that guy fast enough.

Explain how playing the saxophone is pandering.

Mitt Romney speaking to some black kids and saying "who let the dogs out" is pandering. A horrible attempt at it too i might add. Would Mitt Romney have said that if he wasnt around some black kids? No way in hell. Would Bill Clinton play the sax if he didnt have a black audience? Yes, because thats what he does normally.

You are simplifying things by saying "Clinton plays the sax"...Going on Arsenio Hall and wearing sun glasses is pandering to the youth...Who wears shades inside unless they are trying to be cool? Obama brushing his shoulders off is pandering to the hip hop generation...You think he would do that infront of the AARP? ...Hilary Clinton talking like Harriet Tubman is pandering to old Southern Blacks..Joe Biden talking about "they gonna put you in chains" is pandering to his Black audience and exploiting their fears..

It's really not that complicated.....


The fact that we are having this debate is kinda silly....

Consistent, measured pandering within the framework of at least profession of sympathy and concern vs. a complete about face on behalf of a party that suddenly realized "holy shyt, we can't win without these motherfukkers anymore." Also, NWA is a comically extreme choice, they aren't like Jay or Minaj, who are both transcendent pop culture figures - they made "fukk the police" for God's sake, among many other songs that will be hard to spin in a positive way as far as the mainstream goes. Listing them as a favorite band is plain fukking stupid.



i shrug at this incident because i already did the :wtf: when i saw this, this was before the election



i think the difference between obama and clinton doing stuff like this is just a matter of degree, rubio is definitely reaching further, but its the same thing

[*]You do realize that the music you pretend to love so much is about being anti-authoritarian and that the Republican party is all about harsh law enforcement and encouraging an oligarchy, right?

If you truly believe that is only a Republican trait then you are delusional.

He threw Sista Soulja under the bus to show that he wasn't at the behest of black people.

Also i don't get why this is considered as pandering on Rubio's part.
He is a 41 year old latino from Miami who says he likes rap music. Where exactly is the pandering coming from? He is in the right age range for his claims to be truthful. Now if Lindsay Graham was talking about how he is a Tupac fan and that he enjoys Nicki Minaj's music I would say he was a pndering lying old b*stard.
But Rubio? You guys are just nitpicking because his claims of musical taste are no more suspect than Barack Obama's supposed claim to be a hip hop head.
