Yesterday morning, an interview with Puerto Rican reggaeton artist and John McCain endorser, Daddy Yankee, aired on Univision’s Al Punto with Jorge Ramos.
For a while Jorge Ramos danced around the issue of Daddy Yankee’s political endorsement, instead talking about his movie/cd Talento del Barrio, that has the novel story line of a young Rican making it out of the caserios via his music.
When Jorge Ramos finally asks about the endorsement, Daddy Yankee said it was based on McCain’s position on immigration. Someone please get Daddy Yankee a clue.
