BET Attendees Holler "Obama Or Die!" During Awards Ceremony
Gateway Pundit | June 25, 2008

Kim Whitley (in the Obama shirt), Flo Rida, Lil Mama, Young Joc and Mc Lyte praise Obama from the red carpet at the Black Entertainment Awards in America. BBC has video of the interviews HERE.

The BET crowd joined together to holler "Obama or Die" (video here) last night at the annual awards show. MyWay reported:

Barack Obama didn't attend the BET Awards, but that didn't stop attendees from talking about him.

"If we all register and vote, we will have the first black president in the history of America," Sean "Diddy" Combs told the crowd Tuesday at the Shrine Auditorium before chanting "Obama or Die" - a declarative remix of his neutral "Vote or Die" motto from the 2004 presidential election, when he attempted to boost the youth vote.

Obama, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, was just a few blocks away at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion for a fundraiser with a Hollywood guest list that included supermodels Heidi Klum and Cindy Crawford, boxing legend Sugar Ray Leonard and movie stars Samuel L. Jackson and John Malkovich. While Obama didn't make an appearance at the BET Awards - either live or on tape - his presence was felt.

As she picked up her award for best female R&B artist, Alicia Keys told the crowd that it's time for black people to erase the word "can't" from their vocabulary.

"Together we can do anything," she said, playing on the Democrat's "Yes We Can" mantra before shouting: "Obama y'all!" It does make you wonder what the inaugural ball will be like come January.

A coworker of mine mentioned about the widly known concept of the end of the world according to the Chineese and Myan calanders. The Ani-Christ is supposed to reign for 42 months or so, be from Muslim decent, etc. The calanders say the end of the earth is to come Dec. 21st or so in the year 2012. Any thoughts??

I think you can't spell worth a damn.

"Together we can do anything," she said, playing on the Democrat's "Yes We Can" mantra before shouting: "Obama y'all!"' Bet they'd feel warmer & fuzzier when they realize that that Obama stole the phrase "Yes, We Can" from Iranian President Ahmadinejad. It does make you wonder what the inaugural ball will be like come January. You surrendered already? Don't ASSume that Barry will be crowned.

Some of us have been predicting that. Violence is part militancy of the left. When their smiley face fascism doesn't work, violence will ensue.

Obama can deny the militancy all he wants, but he knows it is a fundamental element to institute his idea of “progressive pragmatism.” The youth will carry this load while he stays above the fray, braying for calm.

Hillary needed to defeat him and failed. Riots at the dem. convention could have been controlled. Riots over a national election will bring martial law.
