You want to make sure that we all know that Republican's in general live extravagantly, waste lots of money and don't think about the people who have nothing. I got it, it's an age old complaint from the left, which is more hypocritical than is usually implied. I do believe that West is a capitalist and is using his talents as a rap star to be a rap star. I also believe West is a liberal, taking up liberal stands on social issues. The point you are trying to but failing to make is that capitalists can only be Republican. A capitalist by definition is one who has wealth made on success from a business. For the most part, if you were to focus strictly on political donations you would find that across the board, the money is given to Democrats, Republicans and Independents fairly even. There are a few exceptions, of course, Steve Jobs, David Geffen, Steven Speilberg, Warren Buffett and, Oprah Winfrey all send the majority of their donations to the left. Jim Walton, Wayne Huizenga, Michael Dell and, Charles Schwab send their donations to the right. I would say telling folks to "get 'em high and keep 'em high" is not out of a Republican businessman's playbook. I also don't think a Republican businessman would agree to participate in Al Gore's Live Earth concerts and then hypocritically have dinner delivered from London to New York.

Really? If you do you may be the one and only! Judging by West’s actions and causes, do you think he is a conservative, Republican, business at any cost kinda guy? Really?
