Obama's iPod Playlist

OBAMA’S MUSICAL OUTREACH: President Barack Obama's iPod holds a strong clue to his voting constituency, as he revealed his playlist during an interview on Cincinnati radio station WIZF yesterday. The POTUS said his selection includes old school artists like Stevie Wonder, James Brown, the Rolling Stones and Bob Dylan. More recent tracks are from Jay-Z, Eminem and the Fugees, with jazz artists John Coltrane, Miles Davis and Gil Scott-Heron also represented. There was no mention of Bruce Springsteen, who has been campaigning for Obama, nor any indication he has “Gangnam Style” on his device. (10/30a)
