President Barack Obama has received a critical endorsement in his 2012 reelection campaign: Snoop.Speaking at a panel at the Toronto International Film Festival late last week, Snoop Lion, the rapper and actor formerly known as Snoop Dogg, laid out what GQ described as a "oddly compelling”--albeit expletive-filled--argument for giving Obama four more years in the White House."We need to give Obama four more years,” Snoop said. "Bush f---ed up for eight years, so you gotta give him at least eight. He cleaned half the s--- up in four years.”‘It ain’t like y’all gave him a a clean house. You gave him a house where the TV didn’t work, the toilet was stuffed up. Everything was wrong with the house. So he had to come in and y’all thing together. And then he went and knocked down our most hated, our most wanted. The one who had our terror warning on red or orange or whatever color it was. He went and found him.’On his late night show on Wednesday, Jimmy Kimmel joked that in addition to his endorsement of Obama, Snoop "also endorsed a sleeve of Samoa Girl Scout cookies.”Obama is not the only candidate in the 2012 presidential race to receive a hip-hop endorsement.Earlier this month, Nicki Minaj contributed a surprising verse to a new Lil Wayne mixtape. On it, she sings, "I’m a Republican voting for Mitt Romney, you lazy b-----s are f------ up the economy.”On Monday, though, Minaj tweeted that she was being sarcastic.
