Politics & Crime Politickin’ With John Brown: Scandal-Free First Ladies

In this new weekly column, rapper John Brown'the self-proclaimed “King Of Da Burbz”'will be offering his insight into politics and current events to the Complex readers. Check out “Politickin With John Brown” every Thursday.

As we approach the final stretch to Election Day, I’ve been reflecting on how relatively scandal-free this campaign has played out. To both candidates’ credit, there haven’t been many skeletons in the closet that have come back to haunt them. Where’s the Jennifer Flowers? Paula Jones? Donna Rice?

You get the impression that John McCain relies on Cindy for an allowance and Michelle seems to have the homie Barack on lock. That’s definitely not the norm, because most of these politicians have bigger egos than rappers, and no amount of spousal attention will diminish their Rastafarian desire to spread the seed. So in honor of Cindy and Michelle, I’ve compiled a list of the top 5 first ladies from around the world who are most likely to prevent a Lewinsky-esqe scenario. Check the list below…

Last night, we were watching the final Presidential debate between Barack Obama and John McCain when something caught us off guard. After refuting his alleged Bill Ayers association, Obama started to list the people he would actually call on to advise him once inside the White House:

“…If I’m interested in figuring out my foreign policy, I associate myself with my running mate, Joe Biden or with Dick Lugar, the Republican ranking member on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, or General Jim Jones, the Former Supreme Allied Commander…”

Wait, wait, rewind the tape…did he just say he’d be calling on the Capo to help him with his foreign policy? We don’t know of any “General Jim Jones,” so we can only assume that there will be a major Kufi smack coming to Iraq next year if Obama wins*. Watch the debate clip where Jimmy gets a shout-out below…

Poor John McCain. When it comes to music, dude is more dissed than William Hung. John Cougar Mellencamp, Heart, Jackson Browne, and now the Foo Fighters have all asked him to stop playing their songs at his campaign rallies. But the old dude’s got to have some tunes for his get-togethers, right?

Cue Complex. Ever the non-partisan political helpers, we’ve found five possible theme songs for McCain to use in the last weeks of the presidential campaign. Listen to the bangers we came up with for the Republican candidate below…
