Former President Barack Obama on Wednesday endorsed 81 Democrats running for office around the country in November’s midterm elections, including Antonio Delgado, a rapper whose racially charged lyrics from more than a decade ago have come under fire.

Delgado, who is challenging first-term GOP Rep. John Faso in the Hudson Valley and Catskills region, released an 18-song CD in 2006 titled “Painfully Free.”

In it, Delgado, a Schenectady native, spews the N-word, compares “dead” presidents to “white supremacists” and blasts the country’s two-party political system.

Obama, in the tweet listing his endorsements, said his candidates represent “a wide and impressive array of Democratic candidates — leaders as diverse, patriotic, and big-hearted as the America they’re running to represent.”
