Samuel L. Jackson Says He Voted for Obama “Because He’s Black”

Samuel L. Jackson and Barack Obama

Are you ready for some news that has nothing to do with the Grammys and nothing to do with Whitney Houston? Me too. So, let’s talk about how idiotic Samuel L. Jackson is.

In an interview with Ebony, Jackson said: “I voted for Barack because he’s black. ‘Cuz that’s why other folks vote for people, because they look like him…That’s American politics, pure and simple. [Obama’s] message didn’t mean [bleep] to me.”

Huh? I’m not sure if he is serious or not. I feel like he is trolling because that is the only way to explain this outburst. Jackson continues on his rant by dropping the n-word…a lot.

“Because…what’s a [bleep]? A [bleep] is scary. Obama ain’t scary at all. [Bleeps] don’t have beers at the white house. [Bleeps] don’t let some white dude, while in the middle of a speech, call him a liar. A [bleep] would’ve stopped right there and said, ‘Who the f**k said that?’ I hope Obama gets scary in the next four years, ‘cuz he ain’t gotta worry about getting re-elected.”

Congrats, Mr. Jackson. You have left me completely speechless; I have no idea what to say about that. Mainly because I just can’t take it seriously. It sounds like he is getting ready for a new role, doesn’t it? You know where he plays an “angry badass” and says “motherf**ker” like 15 times? You would think he would have that role down.

But, you know what they say, “Practice makes motherf**ker perfect!”

    I definitely think people vote for things other than qualifications.

    People vote party lines.

    People voted Clinton because he was handsome and charismatic.

    And… I’m sure a percentage of people voted Obama because he’s black… just like a percentage voted McCain because he is white.

    It’s why this country doesn’t elect a real leader anymore. Too many voters don’t “get it”.

      Oh, I agree completely. It’s just a shame that Samuel decided to “prove a point” by adding on to that same point…if that makes sense.

    Samuel L. Jackson is no idiot. He’s courageous and honest for admitting what most Black people who voted for Barak Obama won’t. To say they voted for a community organizer, in the senate for less than 2 years, never wrote one piece of legislation, never had one piece of legislation passed, voted present because of being to cowardly to take a stand was more qualified to be president than either McCain or Hillary Clinton(not saying either of them were perfect) are not only idiots but liars.
