Well, he may not know what to do with his toothy running mate or that pesky Mormonaire (That's a millionaire Mormon. Spread it around.) nipping at his heels, but Barack Obama knows exactly how to deal with the Mariah Carey vs. Nicki Minaj feud: "Bury the hatchet, b!tches."

Ok, that's not at all what the President actually said, but he did sound off on the American Idol beef during a recent radio interview. "I think that they are going to be able to sort it out," Barry said to some radio show host named Michael Yo.  He continued:

"I'm all about bringing people together, working for the same cause. I think both outstanding artists are going to be able to make sure that they're moving forward and not going backwards."

So he's just playing the politician, right? Picking both sides without picking any side? Wrong! BHO knows who's got his back and it ain't some chick who rapped about her love for Mitt Romney. Asked to pick a side, Obama said,"Mariah. She's actually done some events for us…She's a wonderful lady"

Though in the style of a true diplomat, he added.:"Nicki, I don't know, but I've got her on my iPod."
