--- Quote from: M Dogg on June 11, 2007, 09:00:28 AM ---As I watch some old 'Pac videos, and see how outspoken he is during the Clinton years, what would he have done during the Bush years. Imagion, if he dissed Clinton for not living up to his promises, what would he have said about George W. Bush. Would his views change with 9-11, or would he become a conspiricy theoriest like Immortal Technique. Would he have spoke out against Bush right away like Nas did only 3 months after the towers dropped, or would he wait until the next election like Eminem and Jadakiss. Would he be against this war, or would he shock us all and straight up say we have to defend our country. I also know he wanted to start his own party, would the election of 2000 with Gore losing stop him from that, or would he say fuck it, lets go all out. Would he support Obama, or would he go off on his own.

In a highly political time, what would have Hip-Hop's most political voice have said?

--- End quote ---

2pac aligned himself with the Black Panther Party.  So you should really look at the views of Black Panther Party leader Malik Shabazz on all over those issues and you will see a reflection of what Pac's views would of been.

-After 911 Pac would have questioned the story giving out by the media ("Regulate your thoughts/ don't get caught up in the mix/ CAUSE THE MEDIA IS PULLING DIRTY TRICKS/ Only God Can Judge Me"), and also called it a case of the chickens coming home to roost for America's transgressions and manipulation of the Middle East for the last 100 years.

-Then, once the war in Iraq and Afganistan started up, he would point out that Bush is no different from a gangster, he handles his problems the same way a gangsta would, because Pac said this about America when he was alive.

-He wouldn't of supported Obama, or any Democrat or any Republican.  He would have worked for the New Black Panther Party.  He is even quoted in an interview for having said that if he wouldn't of made it in rap he would have joined the New Black Panthers.

-He would drop an album, and it wouldn't be like Immortal Technique, where most of the album was political, it would be more like a line here and a line there.  But it would have a huge impact.
