The Rev. Sharpton said this week that Michael Jackson broke down a barrier: he made it acceptable for black entertainers to rise to the top in a white world. What is Al Sharpton talking about? ..

Sharpton is talking about jumping on any vehicle that has a camera at one end and will accept his "quotes" at the other. Publicity whore?

Sharpton is talking about jumping on any vehicle that has a camera at one end and will accept his "quotes" at the other.

Exactly. I vaguely remember Sharpton calling James Brown "the greatest entertainer of all time" right after he died a few years back. ....and he was very close to the truth on that one. (I'd put JB in the top 10, and maybe 5).

Now he has the same words for Jacko. It's all about camera facetime and kissing up to "his people" for that guy.
