1) He didn't vote for Obama. Or at all. 2) He dislikes politics and believes that the two parties are basically the same and only give the "illusion of choice". Therefore, I call bullshit on what you read in Jet magazine, lol. As for what he could do, well he COULD do a lot. Kal Penn (Harold & Kumar/House MD) has quit acting to join Obama's administration on behalf of actors, so Prince coud certainly help to represent to the needs of musicians to the White House. But like I said, I don't believe this to be true at all. [Edited 8/22/09 13:12pm] |

moderatorWhy are you laughing? This would be a great thing. Every little bit helps. Both are mega millionaires with huge audiences. They have cultural importance and influence. | |

For every reason that has been posted so far is why I laughed,well chuckled.I also knew that question would get various responses on here.I thought oh Kal Penn,but he's actually on the payroll.This is more like what Alicia Keys and other musicians have done.Like concerts with proceeds going towards something.Which I could see Prince doing....IF this story is true....

well since he is a "witness" and since witnesses have their beliefs they dont pay attention to politics | |

He could cut a deal with the Obama administration to include a copy of his next album in with your 2009 tax rebate. [Edited 8/22/09 19:34pm] |

He's gonna be the Secretary of the Funk!
"Sorry Mr.President but we about 2 tear the roof off this... Oh Lord! Guitar!!!" 
"Dig if U will a picture of me, Michelle, Obama and the kids..." When  go 2 a Prince concert or related event it's all  up in the house but when log onto this site and the miasma of bitchiness is completely overwhelming! | |

Prince said on Tavis Smiley show that he does not get involved in politics.

Perhaps Prince will be giving Obama fashion Tips and those "Mummy" jeans will now be a bit tighter, buttons not zipper and of course bottomless.
This will surely help American economy! Thank you Prince!  | |

You're right! Now that is strange. [Edited 8/22/09 20:16pm] | |

I dont know about his religion,but if they can't vote, is it cool for them to become politically involved?..I dont know...I'll plead ignorance on that one | |

No one should expect Prince to remain constant on any one issue, or maintain any particular mindset, for any length of time.  | |
| - E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
I dont think this is serious, but...
if he really wants to help Obama, just stay away. Obama does not need any more freaky nut jobs, he has his hands full,.... thank you very much,... leave your card and if something comes up..... [Edited 8/22/09 21:19pm] | |

Okay, I read the story and I still doubt it would ever happen. I do recall a story before the inauguration about Prince wanting to perform at one of the balls and that never happened either.
Someone may have spoken with him about it but that last sentence where the guy implies that Prince supports the president pretty much guarantees that he won't get involved. Prince, in you I found a kindred spirit...Rest In Paradise. | |

maybe he's been thinking back on what a dumb ass he was for not voting for the first black president, after years of bitching and moaning about race issues.
maybe this is the thing that will get him to leave that cult, finally  | |
