Mos Def Predicts Obama Will Win Democratic Race

After checking out pPresidential candidate Barack Obama on the cover of Men's Vogue, rapper turned actor Mos Def had a feeling the senator from illinois could go all the way.

"On an intuitive level I could sense it," Mos said while speaking at New York's 92nd Street YMCA last week. "And when I saw him on the cover of Men's Vogue, even before he threw his hat in, I was like, 'This guy is going to run for president and he's going to win.' And he's going to win because he's an author, and he looks good."

The rapper's instincts would've been on point last week, but the Democratic race has intensified, as Sen. Hillary Clinton is back on course after surprising victories in the Ohio and Texas primaries last night.
