Since Yeezus threw in his nomination for president, I have personally contemplated what it would be like for the first fashion designer, rapper and producer president… and I have came to the conclusion that it may be pretty fly. So, naturally I have analyzed the facts to present to my readers.
He knows everyone
Kanye West is universally popular. He literally knows everyone from major fashion designers to global leaders, and with that in sight, he can solve many issues the U.S. faces with other countries. For example, if the U.S. is having difficulty with France he can provide a free concert for French politicians as a gift, thus easing the tensions. He can also update his cabinet with some pretty great speakers, and, by speakers, I mean rappers. Picture Jay Z as Treasurer, ASAP Rocky for Head of Interior, Nicki Minaj as Security of Defense, and so forth. Since Jay Z is a multibillion dollar mogul I’m sure he can fix our trillion dollar debt. Plus, Nicki as head of the Department of Defense would be incredibly efficient. “What’s good (Insert country here)?” Any issues we would have would be solved A.S.A.P. (no pun intended.)
Fashion, art and music would be mandatory curricular
Since Kanye is “Dali”, “Warhol” and “Shakespeare in the Flesh”, I’m positive that the arts would be a key staple in the public school systems. Picture being able to develop and hone artistic talents from a young age. We, as a country, could develop the new Bach, the new Picasso or the new Saint Laurent. Our youth would be cultured, growing up learning about the finest composers, artists, designers and poets. The youth would also dress better seeing how they would be exposed to the works of fine designers. Students would be incredibly cultured, having a finer taste for literature as well.
No economic problems... ok maybe just a few
Yeezy is a businessman, who can sell products off the shelves. His recent shoe, the “Yeezy Boost” sold out of retailer Pasun’s website in minutes. Some of his rare shoes sell for hundreds of dollars on Ebay. My point is, he can use his business skills to help our economy.
He would win any political debate
Personally, I think Kanye is one of the greatest rappers. His lyrics are truly creative and smart. So, naturally he can school any one of his opponents during a debate. The multi-award winning rapper can outsmart an opponents jab within seconds, with a even better rebuttal or comment that could persuade a whole audience.
Kanye is unique
His name means “Only One” in Swahili and I’m pretty sure he is the only Kanye we know. He is an all over creative genius by passing the works of his rapper competitors. He doesn’t put up with any hate. He also stands up for what he believes in, making him a modern activist. And, maybe, that's just what America needs.
Lastly, a message to all the haters
To those who say that Kanye cannot become president due to his past actions, you fail to realize that Yeezy just like every great artist or innovator is misunderstood, just like Beethoven, Van Gough and Howard Hughes were.
