NAS - NAS BACKS OBAMA

NAS BACKS OBAMA

Rapper NAS has offered his backing to BARACK OBAMA's U.S. presidential campaign, claiming the Democratic candidate is the "face of America".
Nas is the latest in a line of celebrities to publicly declare their support for Obama.
The I Can hitmaker tells MTV, "There's no two ways to look at it, man - the man's got what it takes. He's serious.
"As a kid, you always think, 'We'll never see a black president,' you know? 'There'll never be a black president.' And you always feel that way. Everybody's always grew up that way, black and white. So I think now, with Obama having a great chance of winning, I think (with) black and white, there's been something lifted off their shoulders. It's like, 'This can happen. This can be great.' And it's about time."
