o and for those of you who are wondering where the conspect for the song came from here you go  
“Magic Negro” Comments

```
Main article: Barack the Magic Negro

```

On March 19, 2007 Limbaugh referred to Barack Obama as a “magic negro,” citing an L.A. Times editorial by David Ehrenstein which claimed that Obama was filling the role of the magic negro, and that this fact explained his appeal to voters[45]. Limbaugh then later played a song by Paul Shanklin, “Barack the Magic Negro,” sung to the tune of Puff the Magic Dragon.[46] Limbaugh had previously referred to Obama as “Halfrican American”, a term which he also applied to actress Halle Berry. Limbaugh cited the Ehrenstein editorial, and said that the point of the comment was to highlight “race-obsessed Democrats”, who had questioned whether Obama was black enough.[46]that is from wiki i will provide the link.

For real? You’re trying to argue that Palin was qualified and simply overburdened?
