Rapper DMX: Obama Who?!

DMXApparently DMX is not only crazy as the day is long, but he's also living on another planet.

The rapper did a bizarre interview recently with XXL, where he claims he has never heard of anyone named Barack Obama! He then proceeded to make fun of Obama's name -- because the name DMX is clearly ingenious.

DMX continued digging a hole for himself, saying he hasn't followed the presidential race at all and that "The president is a puppet anyway. The president don't make no damn decisions."

Lucky for the rest of the America, DMX revealed he's not allowed to vote because he's a convicted felon.

Calls to DMX's rep for a statement were not returned.

19. I understand he is dumb for not knowing who Obama is, and im not sticking up for him-but you guy's are aware that the president is just the nations image. He does not call the shots and you would be in idiot to believe that one person would decide the fate of many, that is why he has advisors all around him. So yes DMX is out of it, but his comment about the president was right on point.

22. A convicted felon can still vote. There are certain requirements that have to be met before your voting rights are restored but having a prior felony conviction does not bar you from voting forever. You must however re-register after you discharge from probation or parole.

24. Obama is definitely a media candidate. No discernable political skills, and an aversion to answering questions directly. Unfortunately, he is just not a worthwhile candidate for the job of President of the United States.

Granted, he's (probably) more intelligent than Jesse Jackson, but that's similar to saying that Britney Spears is slightly more normal than Lindsey Lohan.

26. just because one is a convicted felon doesn't mean they can't vote...once they have served their sentence and/or probation, they can vote...so what's really too bad is that the dummy doesn't even know his rights!
