Must be fund-raising time... sorta like your local PBS television station. Jesse's low on cash.

Clipped from: the first in-depth investigation of the man who perfected the "art" of turning racial grievances into breathtaking wealth:

During Jackson's famous "African Safari" with Clinton, which cost taxpayers $42 million, Clinton apologized to African dictators for slavery while Jackson worked oil deals with the same despots on the side.

Well, with Aristide and Taylor out of power I guess he needs a new income stream.

Jesse Jackson couldn't negotiate a sharp corner.

WHy does the press even pay attention to this proven farce?

JJ has nothing to give the terrorists except a way out. A face-saving way of releasing the US hostages unharmed.

Jessie would love nothing more than to be killed or taken hostage. It would in his mind place him right alongside MLK.

Concur

Literally speaking: the closest he came to that was when he was standing next to MLK {GRHS}, shortly after he was shot.

Seems to me there's a statute forbidding American Citizens from independently interfering in the foreign relations of our country.

Are you aware of this prohibition?

Jesse is about Jesse. Isn't it illegal to go negotiate hostages as a private party during a war?

Also, he won't get within a mile of the hostage takers. Look for him going to go-betweens or by a phone because he is a coward I think.

So did Rita call Jesse or did Jesse call Rita? My money's on the latter, not the former.
