“Don’t believe the media. I think it’s going to be a landslide.” – Bob Dylan

“If the Democrats had control of congress then Romney probably wouldn’t be such a bad President. Safest bet is to re-elect Obama though … I realise that’s probably an overly nuanced view to be taking on Twitter” – Scuba

“I think that [not voting] is one of our biggest failures as a community, as a generation; not wanting to go out and do for ourselves and to sit back and wait … And then when it doesn’t happen, we point the finger. I think we just really need to take matters into our own hands; uplift our community, put money back in our community, and show these kids how there’s something different.” – Kendrick Lamar

“Please, please don’t vote for Mitt Romney. Fuck him. Repeal abortion law is the first thing he’ll do. F**king monster.” – Lemmy, Motorhead

“[Romney] always interrupts and talks over people like he’s better than them. Bitch, I will beat the shit out of you.” – Snoop Lion

Well, Dragonfly Jonez, to be exact.

“Back in my country, my president is trying to pass a gun ban. So he’s staging all of these murders, like the Fast and Furious thing down at the border and Aurora, Colorado, all the people that were killed there. And now the beautiful people at the Sikh temple.” – Dave Mustaine, Megadeth

“I’m a supporter of less government, that’s kind of where my beliefs lie. But Mitt Romney sat down with me, we had a conversation, and … I had a list of questions I asked him. I said to him ‘You know, the city of Detroit, I guarantee, is going to vote Democrat, but if you’re elected, will you help me help the city of Detroit and the people that it holds?’ And he said ‘Absolutely I will.’ And I was like ‘All right, cool, I’ll vote for you.'” – Kid Rock

“We gave Bush 8 years to destroy America, let’s give Obama 8 years to rebuild it!” – Waka Flocka Flame

“I’m a Republican / Voting for Mitt Romney / You lazy bitches are fucking up the economy” – Nicki Minaj

Sarcastically, we should add.

“Everyday we see your [Obama’s] heart and character, inspiring all of us to give more of ourselves. You are the leader to take us from where we are to where we need to be. You are the reason my daughter and nephew will grow up knowing that they can truly be anything they want to be.” – Beyonce

“Right now, there is an ever increasing division of wealth in this country, with the benefits going more and more to the one percent. For me, President Obama is our best choice to begin to reverse this harmful development. .. we need a President who has a vision that includes all of our citizens, not just some.

For me, President Obama is our best choice because he has a vision of the United States as a place where we are all in this together. We’re still living through very hard times but justice, equality and real freedom are not always a tide rushing in. They are more often a slow march, inch by inch, day after long day. I believe President Obama feels these days in his bones and has the strength to live them with us and to lead us to a country ‘where no one crowds you and no one goes it alone.'” – Bruce Springsteen

“USA: don’t fuck this up” – Surgeon
