Barack Ob...Get it girl???<BR/>Not the time or place.<BR/><BR/>Sen. Barack Obama said today a jazz singer’s decision to sing the ‘Black National Anthem’ at Denver’s State of the City speech this week was wrong.<BR/><BR/>“Well, ‘Lift Ev’ry Voice and Sing’ is a beautiful song that has been sung in African-American churches and other events for a very long time,” Obama told the Rocky in phone interview. “We only have one National Anthem. And so, if she was asked to sing the National Anthem, she should have sung that. ‘Lift Ev’ry Voice and Sing’ is a beautiful song, but we only have one National Anthem.”<BR/><BR/>Obama’s comments came as the controversy over Rene Marie’s rendition entered its third day.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
