Is Nicki Minaj voting for Mitt Romney? The Trinidadian-born rapper appears on Lil Wayne’s "Dedication 4," the recently released fourth installment in his mixtape series and says "I’m a Republican voting for Mitt Romney, you lazy bitches are [expletive] up the economy." Minaj doesn’t follow up her "endorsement" with any other political thoughts, instead rhyming "economy" with "zombie," [Billboard.com points out.](http://www.billboard.com/column/the-juice/nicki-minaj-raps-i-m-voting-for-mitt-romney-1007922352.story#/column/the-juice/nicki-minaj-raps-i-m-voting-for-mitt-romney-1007922352.story) Minaj has tweeted criticism for President Barack Obama in the past. But in that same tweet she also lobbied for universal healthcare hardly which hardly makes her sound like a Republican. "What’s sad is that when Yvette was bringing home the bacon, the gov’t was probably taking millions. On her deathbed though, #Nowheretobefound," she wrote. "That should be a God given right! Even with Obama Care, too much involved. Just give FREE health care to all. @BarackObama what can we do?"

West attended the 2008 Democratic National Convention in Denver in support of President Obama. "It’s an incredible time to be around. I wish my momma could have seen this day," West said at the DNC in 2008.
