heheThis is a recording of Barack Obama saying, “You ain’t my bitch, nigga! Buy your own damn fries!”
Apparently there are some choice phrases quoted in Dreams From My Father. Obama did the audiobook, and so there are now clips of him saying these things, including, also:
“Sure you can have my number, baby!”
“There are white folks, and then there are ignorant motherfuckers like you.”“You know that guy ain’t shit. Sorry-ass motherfucker ain’t got nothing on me.”
And, perhaps best of all, “So what happens when we go out to a party with some sistahs, huh? What happens? I tell you what happens: Blam! They on us like there’s no tomorrow. High school chicks, university chicks, it don’t matter!”
