Part Two:A Fictional Interview with President Barack Obama by Marvin X
MX: Mr. President, thanks for allowing me to interview you again.
Prez: The pleasure is all mine, Marv. I truly enjoyed our last talk, although, in your style, you raked me over the coals. I'm not going to let you get away with it this time.
MX: Aw, Prez, you can't have thin skin in the game you're in.
Prez: You think I don't know that by now? I'll be lucky to get out of this situation with any skin, thin or otherwise.
MX: Why you say that, Prez?
Prez, Marv, I'm gonna drop a bomb on you. I'm going to give you an exclusive.
MX: Drop it like it's hot.
Prez, I've had just about enough of this bullshit, fake aas job in the White House.
I've said more than once I don't give a damn if I'm a one term Prez.
MX:Prez, you not going to run for a second term?
Prez, Hell to the naw, fuck these peckerwoods and nigguhs too. I don't like being pressured from above and below. I see you can't win in this game, so I'm checking out before I get in too deep.
MX: I can't believe what you're saying.
Prez, I thought about it long and hard, talked it over with Michelle and my girls. They said, Dad, do what you gotta do, we with you all the way, whatever you decide.
Even my mother-in-law said, Boy, use the mind God gave you. I told you these white folks is sick.
MX: So are you going back to Rev. Wright's church?
Prez, Marv, first let me ease out the door of that funky White House. Then let me come up for air. Hell, you know I hated to denounce my preacher, but I had to play the game. You nigguhs act like you didn't understand I was gaming the white man, but I was. You know ain't no way a nigguh could stay in Rev. Wright's church for twenty years and not get addicted to black consciousness, but Rev. Wright understands what I had to do to get over on these peckerwoods. They been lying and gaming us for 400 years.
MX: Sho you right.
Prex, A nigguh better learn some game up in this motherfuckin bullshit called America. And the first lesson a real nigguh need to learn is how to lie to the white man's face just like he been doing us the last 400 years. Lie with a smile.
MX: Prez, you talking like Marvin X?
Prez, Let the truth be told. I tried to play the game but it ain't worth it. Why should I spend a billion dollars for my job when millions of people have no job and little chance of getting one anytime soon. A billion dollars for one job? Just doesn't make sense, I rather be unemployed just like them. Let me go back to community organizing, something I like to do and can see the results. I ain't caught nothing but hell with the political bullshit, hell from both sides. If the pecks ain't downing me, I got to deal with nigguhs like you, Marv, fucking with me night and day, you and Cornel and his sidekick, that bitch Tavis. You nigguhs need to cut me some slack, damn. And naw I ain't invitin you nigguhs to the White House for beer.
MX: Prez, you said from the beginning it wasn't about you, but us, so us is on your ass and gonna stay on your ass til you do the right thing, if that's humanly possible.
Prez: Hell, I been doing all I can do. I got you health insurance, didn't I?
MX, Prez, how a nigguh gonna pay for health insurance with no job?
Prez: Marv, I did what I can. You know all the jobs and money are gone overseas. What the hell can I do? All this was in place before I came into the White House. The jobs are gone to China, India, Brazil, and there's nothing I can do about it? The Indians say they'll come to America and hire our workers but at the same wages paid in India. You know them Coolies are crazy. Ain't no American MBA gonna work for $14,000 per year when they used to $140,000 per year.
MX: Prez, I know you can configure something to get our people and the masses of Americans back to work doing something.
Prez: Hell, seem like there ought to be a few job openings, after all, I sent a million illegals back across the border.
MX: Prez, you know ain't no nigguh doing what the Mexicans do, and work hard at it, and be on time.
Prez: I did what I can do. I can't do everything, I'm not a miracle worker.
MX: But you said change we can believe.
Prez: Yes, change you can believe, but what is belief? I know what I know and I know I'm getting the hell out the White House. I've had enough of those No People. Let them fight between themselves like blind fools, Democrats and Republicans, two sides of the same intractable coin of white supremacy. Didn't you write about it?
MX: Yes, you mean my book How to Recover to the Addiction to White Supremacy?
Prez: I read it. Very insightful. But you know white people ain't ready to recover from white supremacy.
MX: Of course not, too many white privileges. Like Chris Rock said, "I'm a rich nigguh, but don't no white man wanna be Chris Rock. So you have no solution to the job crisis in America?
Prez: Marv, you know the solution is to redistribute the wealth, and who's ready to share the wealth, not the guys I know on Wall Street, people in the military/corporate complex and international finance. They say they will destroy the world before they give up white supremacy. I tried to compromise with them, but you were right when you wrote about them and described them as the No People.
MX: Well, Prez, if you change your mind, let me know.
Prez: Marv, I'm the first Black President. I am satisfied to go down in history as that. Ain't that a hell of a thang? The first nigguh president.
MX: Yeah, nobody can take that away from you, whether you accomplished anything else, guess it don't matter.
Prez: Not to me, fuck it. Let me go home to Chicago. To hell with those hard headed, recalcitrant, incorrigible, die hard, Republican devils and their tea party sycophants. At least I did one thing.
MX:What's that?
Prez: I got that Osama bin Laden bitch.
MX: I thought he died five years ago of a liver condition.
Prez: Marv, my Seals got that motherfucker. Don't believe all that conspiracy bullshit.
MX: Where's the body, Prez.
Prez: We had to dispose of the body. Those Muslims would turn his grave into a shrine for terrorism, you know that.
MX: What about Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Libya, Somalia.
Prez: Marv, I'm trying to deal with those issues right now, but we'll still be over there killing for the next hundred years, hell, how long we been in Korea, Japan and Germany. Hey, I gotta get back to work (laughs). We'll talk again soon, I promise.
MX: Thank you, Mr. Prez.
