Calle 13’s Residente Sides With Obama
Calle 13’s Residente spoke with El Nuevo Dia about the Presidential race in the US, and said:
“Even though I don’t vote in The United States, if I had to choose I would vote for Obama, based on his values and priorities in life. McCain has killed people and the other one hasn’t, one wants to continue the war and the other one doesn’t.”
Do you agree or not???

Why do artists that don’t have clue about American politics keep giving their ignorant comments? If you want to vote for someone vote for them based on the issues. Voting because of their values got us George W. Bush! Honestly, unless you or one of your loved ones is in the military why is the war such a big deal. Those men and women volunteered they were not drafted! This is not Vietnam! If you sign on the dotted line you should know that sooner or later you will have to put your life on the line so deal with it.

I agree.
Politics are more complicated than what he just said, but what he said is the main point.
Calle 13 is a legitimate voice in social justice issues. You can just tell that by listening to his music…
Residente is not stupid!

I partially agree with David…I really think this guy should refrain from making comments, it is obvious he doesn’t know the issues…This election is so important it would be so sad for voters to be influenced by a pop star instead of looking in on what is really going on…

Noone enlisted in the Army to spend their time in Iraq for reasons that still aren’t clear. We enlisted because we wanted to get those that did the damage on 9/11. Who were Bin Laden and the Taliban. NOT the Shi’ites and Sunnis in Iraq, which are causing all the fatalities now. So basically we’re in Iraq for the wrong reasons. So do us all a favor and don’t comment on the military if you have no clue of the real reasons things are done.
And as for Residente…I love the music, but if you don’t know politics…just stay away from it. Thanks
