According to BBC, when Jay-Z was asked about running for presidency he said,
"Give me a chance. Maybe in eight years, I'll be the president."
As Barack Obama's Democratic Party goes through uneasy mid-term elections, the rapper believes President Obama needs time to sort things out.
He added,
"In order to judge someone, you have to judge what they inherit. He inherited the worst economy, war, just a horrible time in American history. So if we think he can solve that, I mean, we don't think he's God, do we? He's a human being. He's going to need time to figure that out."
It is also being reported that President Obama may seek out Jay-Z for help in this next 2012 presidential campaign. Deputy White House Press Secretary William Burton recently joked with the New York Post,
“I can't believe you've finally heard the chatter about [Jay] replacing Larry Summers. In all seriousness, keep in mind he was pretty active during the 2008 election, so I don't think it'd surprise anyone that [Jay] would be involved again. But it's a little premature.”
You think it's possible Jay-Z will help President Obama for his campaign in '12, then in return Obama will help Jay run in '16????
Wouldn't that be interesting....
