Founder of funk band Parliament George Clinton spoke to John Humphrys this morning touching on plagiarism, police and the president.

When talking about race relations Clinton said the police need better education.

"It's more important that the police be educated and trained not to fear the people they are supposed to protect."

Asked about President Obama, Clinton said the president's time in office has improved America's international standing.

"I travel the round the world, we wasn't welcome a lot of places 6-7 years ago...we had fallen out with almost everybody....we have a better relationship with the world now."
