American Idol to President Obama & Al Green: Sing For Us!

by at .

If you haven't seen the video of President Obama singing Al Green at a fundraiser at New York City's legendary Apollo Theater last week, you need to.

No matter what you think of his views, the Prez proved with his riff on "Let's Stay Together" that he's got pipes! And we weren't the only ones impressed.

Friday, American Idol executive producer Nigel Lythgoe Tweeted an official offer to the Commander in Chief that he can't refuse. Or at least he shouldn't:

"@BarackObama we loved your vocal performance so much we'd love to invite you on to #AmericanIdol this Season for a duet with Al Green."

Now that would be the DVR moment of the decade.

We're gonna guess that Obama will cite scheduling conflicts and pass, but if you think about it, what better way to win over voters in an election year?

Okay, perhaps a robust economy would be a bigger ballot box boost, but you get the idea. The guy's vocal chops are legit and deserve a wider audience.

President Obama in 2012?

    And cocksucker, you ain’t letting us do shit, and you ain’t giving us a goddamn thing! Who the fuck you think you are?! I do not recall anyone dying and making you God!! And hell to the damn no, I DON’T like your ignorant racist ass!! And the reason why I don’t like you is because you are a racist asshole!! Don’t kid yourself into believing that I am an isolated opinion about your racist ass either!! I know that your ignorant ass assumes that everybody just love you to pieces because you are white. But, the truth of the matter, you are merely tolerated, because most people know that you are sadistic assholes!! You throw one of your psycho temper tantrums and the whole world is blown all to hell in a hand-basket!! I don’t give a damn if you pass me by, just keep going, bitch!!!

    @Completly fucked up Jones. Yes- of course/ the Retribution check. Then there's the gas money to pick up the check. Of course there is always the interest tacked. We will see your Black Racist Useless Ass in the STREETS before that day comes. Whites 66% Blacks 17%. you are a typical useless lazy cancerous tumor. That will never see anymore than the Mountains of opportunities that you have already been given. As you said- Can't stand reed? Can't stand looking at my writing? Then Bitch- look no further. I have given you all I will give in regards to giving you and ear to talk to. Life has passed you by. So have I.
