Barack Obama offers advice to Kanye West about being President

Barack Obama has offered a few words of wisdom to rapper Kanye West, who recently announced that he intended to run for President of the United States in 2020.
Obama was speaking at a fund-raising event in front of 1,300 people in California on Saturday, at which West was scheduled to perform after his speech, reported BC News.
The 38-year-old rapper announced his plan to run for the highest office in the land in four years' time at the MTV VMAs back in August, and the President took the opportunity to refer to that.
"In a little while you are going to hear from a guy who is thinking about getting into politics. It couldn't get any stranger," Obama said at San Francisco's iconic Warfield Theater.

"In case Kanye is serious about this whole POTUS thing, or, as Kanye calls it, 'peezy', you've got to deal with strange characters who behave as if they are on a reality TV show," Obama offered up as advice to the would-be President West.
"Saying you have a beautiful dark twisted fantasy - that's what's known as off-message in politics," he said, referring to West's 2010 album.
Obama signed off with a final joke, referencing the ongoing ludicrous saga about his own birth certificate.
