Snoop Dogg recently reinvented himself into the peaceful, reggae-inspired Snoop Lion. At this past week's Toronto Film Festival, the former rapper premiered his documentary "Reincarnated," which traces the birth and development of this new Snoop Lion persona. Even with a renewed sense of peace and tranquility, Snoop Lion isn't afraid to express his opinions through profanity-fueled banter. And that's just what the "Gin & Juice" singer did at a Toronto Film Festival press conference for "Reincarnated," where he clearly endorsed his support of President Obama's reelection.
During the conference Snoop Lion took time away from discussing his new film with this statement:
"They need to give Obama four more years, man. "Former President George W.] Bush fu##ed up for eight years, so you gotta at least give [Obama] eight years. He cleaned half the sh## up in four years, realistically."
The 40-year-old rapping mogul goes on to tell reporters, "It ain't like y'all gave him a clean house. Y'all gave him a house where the TV didn't work, the toilet was stuffed up. Everything was wrong with the house." And speaking about Osama bin Laden, Snoop reminds the crowd that Obama, "went and found him and knocked him down, so don't forget about that... So give him four years to get his thing together and finish this deal out."
Snoop left reporters with this final Obama endorsement: "You heard what [former President Bill] Clinton said [at the Democratic National Convention]. You loved Clinton, didn't you?"

So it looks like Obama can add another celebrity fan to his ballot check-off list.
As for "Reincarnated," Snoop Lion insists that he has conquered everything that rap has to offer - he would now like to delve into the world of reggae to produce music that everyone (from children to Snoop Dogg fans to his grandmother) can listen to and enjoy.
