The Mitt Romney Music Video by Lukerative both seems to endorse and challenge Presidential hopeful Mitt Romney. Playing on the self-given nickname R-Money (Romney spelt his name backwards once upon a time to glorious results), the rap video goes over the statements made by Romney on his economic plans and health care advances (or lack thereof). While the rapper is definitively anti-Obama, he has taken on a trend that was started by Obama fans -- fan-created music videos.
Whether the rapper is in support of the Republican Presidential nominee, parodying him for a good time, or neither in support of either he or President Obama remains unclear. However, the hilarious Mitt Romney Music Video is a joy for Republicans and Democrats alike (depending on your interpretation).
