We will agree to disagree. Most whites see it as a plus for Obama that race pimp Jackson doesn’t like him. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Jackson is doing Obama a favor.

Thank you for the reply. Sharpton yesterday admonished Jackson for potentially causing a “rift” in the black community, as did Jesse Jackson, Jr. Jackson accused Obama of treating black churches and their members poorly, that was it. Also, for Obama to have his “Sister Soulja Moment” he would have to be directly and publicly involved, just like Clinton was 16 years ago (i.e. if he publicly rebuked Jackson just as he did Reverend Wright). Obama wasn’t, this was Jackson showing his true feelings for Obama when it comes to the messiah’s feelings towards black church goers, and it has the very real possibility of causing a rift, or at a minimum a debate in the black community. Remember, regardless of the feelings people on both sides have for Jackson, he is still a very powerful voice in the black community, and he is highly influential in black churches which he feels Obama is treating badly.
