I've known King was a Republican for years. I remember him giggling his way through appearances on Letterman talking about Reagan!

I ain't proud to have him in the party. IMHO, he's the GOP's Sharpton. But at least the Republicans aren't treating him like a kingmaker like the Demos have Sharpton.

He's a real homeboy of mine who really makes me blush.

Is that something good or bad?

Why is Don King wearing an Airborne qualification badge on his left lapel?

Is he jump qualified?

I'd rather have him on my side than not on my side.

Could have been given to him by a friend. Is that allowed?

I finally captured that image to my hard drive.
It's worthy of LeRoy Neiman.

He was one of a few blacks who supported GW in 2000.

Really a surprise to me. I'm grateful for his vote and support of our Dubya. He's an unsavory character in a number of ways, but he does seem very sincere in his love for this country.

I saw him on Fox. He is very intelligent. He said what we have said for years. Blacks are taken for granted by Dems, Blacks should not support one party only, Pres.Bush places Blacks in positions of leadership and Pres. Bush would make all Americans safer...terrorism is an issue for all Americans: black or white. Go Don go!
