The rapper and actor Ludacris (Christopher Bridges) has written a song for Sen. Barack Obama. The song is titled "Politics (Obama is here)." Ludacris and Obama are friends and Obama has talked in the past of his likeness to Ludacris' songs. Personally, I don't think Obama is as loving of Ludacris' songs as he says to the public. But that's just me.
The song attacks John McCain, Hillary Clinton and George W. Bush. The song is all about payback from the 2000 Presidential Election.
Lyrics (from LiveLeak, see link below):
I'm back on it like I just signed my record deal
yeah the best is here, the Bentley Coup paint is dripping wet, it got sex appeal
never should have hated
you never should've doubted him
with a slot in the president's iPod Obama shattered 'em
Said I handled his biz and I'm one of his favorite rappers
Well give Luda a special pardon if I'm ever in the slammer
Better yet put him in office, make me your vice president
Hillary hated on you, so that b^$&%* is irrelevant
Jesse talking slick and apologizing for what?
if you said it then you meant it how you want it have a gut!
and all you other politicians trying to hate on my man,
watch us win a majority vote in every state on my man
you can't stop what's bout to happen, we bout to make history
the first black president is destined and it's meant to be
the threats ain't fazing us, the nooses or the jokes
so get off your ass, black people, it's time to get out and vote!
paint the White House black and I'm sure that's got 'em terrified
McCain don't belong in ANY chair unless he's paralyzed
Yeah I said it cause Bush is mentally handicapped
Ball up all of his speeches and I throw em like candy wrap
cause what you talking I hear nothing even relevant
and you the worst of all 43 presidents
get out and vote or the end will be near
the world is ready for change because Obama is here!
cause Obama is here
The world is ready for change because Obama is here!

I don't buy the Luda and Obama being friends. I think Obama occasionally mentions rappers to appeal to his core audience. Jay-Z and The Fugees are the only ones that consistently get mentioned.
Obama's mentioned his favorite artists are Bob Dylan, Stevie Wonder, and the Rolling Stones on more occasions, and that certainly makes more sense considering his relative age.
Although a students for Obama group allegedly played "99 Problems" by Jay-Z at a primary campaign event. I thought that was awesome ("I got 99 problems, but a bitch ain't one."
