So Super-Dee-Duper Tuesday has come and gone and it looks like Obama’s been taking states left and right. So Obama supporters should don their “Barack Rocks!” tees and dance in the street, right?

It’s no secret that I endorse Barack Obama in the race for the presidency, but regardless of whether you agree with me or not, GET TO THE POLLS AND VOTE.

Anyway, ‘Ye has posted some sample pages from his book on his blog. It looks like it’s a lot better designed than Bentley’s book (which I will get around to finishing reviewing) and also a bit more abstract in the type of advice given.
Scoot on over there and check it. [kanYe West: Blog]
