The Source Magazine caught up with Diddy whilst he was vacationing on his yacht in St. Barts for its February/March issue (on stands now). During the interview, the Didster was asked to comment on the job President Barack Obama is doing. Being the heavy-hitting, Meet The Press style political analyst he is, Diddy weighed in…
Source: What’s your assessment of President Obama thus far?
Diddy: “I love the president like most of us. I just want the president to do better. There’s a difference between us voting for somebody and us believing in somebody. He’s the person that we believed in so I pray night and day that he understands how God ordained his presidency. I feel there was a promise made to God to look after people that was less fortunate, and [many] of those people are African-American...”
“Do better?” Huh, son?
I’ll admit the President has his share of critics in the black community who seem to want him to be solely the President of the Black People, forgetting that he’s the President of these Whole United States of America, with an awful lot on his plate. I’d say he’s making lemonade. I mean, does any President ever get it all done for all the people? His plate is full of wartime issues, global warming, Social Security, unemployment, a massive deficit, the people snapping off mummy heads in Egypt who want their freedom, yaada yaada… and the friggin’ Tea Party. I highly doubt he needs a man known for Diddy Boppin’ critiquing what has to be the toughest job on the planet.
“Do better?” C’mon Diddy. “Do better” as in promote yet another alcohol product to the black community? A community with a high rate of depression and substance abuse issues already? Maybe Barry O will carve out some time to do that like you did.
“Do better” as in spread your seed without any intention of ever marrying the woman/women you impregnate, adding to the nearly 70% of black children being raised in single parent homes? Maybe Obama can manage to squeeze that in too… ‘tho I don’t think Michelle (you know, his wife) is having any of that.
We should all be so lucky as to be able to “do better” and buy our teenage sons a second Maybach (this time, a limo…you know, for “special” occasions). Maybe Sasha and Malia can get a few of those too…so they can “do better.”
Chile, please. Stick to your yachts and sprinkling that Dirty Money around the globe. I’m sure Cassie needs another fur.

PHLIP!: I have always lived under the opinion that once that line is crossed, there is no going back. Sure, many think they’re the exception to the rule, but there is no denying that physical involvement WILL change the dynamic of a friendship. Usually this comes from one side wanting more than just that. Unless, of course, you were both REALLY intoxicated and therefore had a reason leading to the loss of clarity for that moment. Even then, the friendship will be greatly strained. Friendships require a lack of complication to remain effective as friendships… “Relations” happens to be one of the most damning of complications.
