As was reported by Billboard magazine, during an appearance on BuzzFeed’s popular podcast, “Another Round”, Clinton, 67, was asked what she thought about Kanye West running for president in 2020.

She went on to say that she “would not rule out anybody for Vice President”.
Obama urged the rapper to get prepared for the real world out there which requires him dealing with a few unusual characters who act like they are on a reality TV show.
After a weekend of glitzy West Coast celebrity fundraisers starring Kanye West, Jamie Foxx and Star Wars director J.J. Abrams, President Barack Obama has no intention of staying on the political sidelines during the 2016 campaign. “So you’ve just to be cool with that”. “Couldn’t get any stranger”.
Tip No. 2: “Saying that you have a “Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy” – that’s what’s known as “off-message” in politics”, Obama said in reference to Yeezy’s classic 2010 album. People have lost congressional seats that way.
Obama finished with a little self-deprecating humor for his fellow Chicago native saying, “Do you really think that this country is going to elect a black guy from the south side of Chicago with a amusing name to be president of the United States?”
Kanye performed at the fundraiser.
Despite his wife Kim Kardashian stating that the announcement was “news” to her, West insists he is serious about the bid and that he has been considering it since 2010.
The shoes were apparently Kanye’s gift to Obama.

It’s nice to see Obama lightening up a bit during his final year in office.
