Welcome to Young Hollywood. com.
Young Hollywood, vote for me because I am the candidate for you, for the youth of America, for the future of America. Barack Obama in '08.
Barack Obama, thanks for coming to Young Hollywood and interviewing first of all.
Thank you.
Uh, you're very exhausted, is that correct?
It's true, Brian, you know, the trail takes a lot out of you. It takes a lot of endurance. Takes a lot of endurance, a lot of um uh stamina and also endurance. Did I say endurance? Uh, yes. I needed a lot to get through that.
Who are the people that have come forth that have really touched your heart in helping you?
I'd say the the Wu Tang Clan, Sly and the Family Stone, Run and also DMC. I'm asking you not to hate the game, asking you not to hate the player because yes, I can if you do it with me.
Tell me about your girls. What do they think about Daddy running for president?
They miss me, but uh I think that they think if I become the president, that that means that they can eat as much candy as they please. That is not true, but uh I I'm gonna have to
Barack, I'm sorry. I gotta I gotta interrupt here for a second. Are you saying you're not there for your kids and you're going to reward them with candy and and do you let these girls play uh dangerous video games with violence? I mean, what is the message? I'm trying I don't want to put words in your mouth, Barack, but
No, you you're the one who said that. I didn't say that. I said that's what the girls may feel, but they I am there for them. If I did say I wasn't there for them, then Jedi mind trick. Let me ask you this. When you heard my name, did you think that perhaps I might be a member of the Furious Five, the rapping group from the eighties? Africa Bombard.
To be totally honest, I thought you were and I'm still not completely convinced that you're not. And I'm not saying you are, but I don't know.
I'm Brian Jouley. This is Barack. And tuning next week. Man, let's go get drunk. You want to do that?
Sounds like a plan.
Let's get wasted, man. We can do that.
