The Barack Obama vs Mitt Romney Epic Rap Battle, created by YouTubers Nice Peter and EpicLloyd, gets down to the real nitty gritty of the 2012 presidential debate.
Behind all their extensive lexicon of political jargon, what are the two presidential candidates really saying? Well, this rap battle breaks it down for us and shows us how intellectual this election debate really is. With Mitt Romney's character spitting out lines like "you're all Barack and no bite," and Barack Obama's double stating "you're 'bout to get smacked by my stimulus package," it becomes clear that this version of the 2012 presidential debate is more of a pissing contest between the two candidates than a serious consideration of what's best for the United States.
