Al Sharpton might be quick witted and likes to make people laugh, but he is a pimp. He and Jesse Jackson claim to be representing the black people in this country, but they don't. They exploit them, they profit off the very people they claim to be helping. Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson live high on the hog and don't even pay taxes on the money the swindle from people. How many kids (not their own) have either of them provided an education for with the money they have collected.

Al Sharpton wears the best suits money can buy, yet has he given back to the community 1% of the way Bill Cosby has? Bill Cosby earned his money and has given away much of it to people who want to better themselves, but can't afford an education. Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson shakedown corporate America in the name of their people and line their pockets with the proceeds.

The sooner people ignore people like Jesse and Al, the better off the black community will be

The sooner people ignore people like Jesse and Al, the better off the black community will be. You said it a lot better than I.

True, but the dem candidate for senator from Illinois, Barek Obama, is being groomed for great things.

He is even going to give a speech at the DNC convention. I saw him being interviewed on FNC yesterday, and he said

"You get into politics because it's a mission.
You get into politics because there's something in you - a religious faith, a sense of connection to other people..." --- direct quote by Barek Obama, 23 July 2004

This is the first time I have seen a lib actually verbalize how he feels about his political position - the position of the left.

One of the reasons why the left is so virulent against "religion" in 'government" is because God-based religions are in opposition to their religion - liberal/progressive/communism.
