Flash to JJ- You’re too late, Michelle got there first!
Here is what has happended:
Jackson is part of the old guard whose blood sweat and tears has allowed a possibility of a black man to be considered for president. Obama hasn’t experienced this. His father was Kenyan, and in the circles of some in the black community, Obama does not have “slave blood” in him.
Obama is speaking of family values and has encouraged black fathers to take responsibility of their out of wedlock children. Jackson doesn’t like it. He believes that Obama is talking down at him because HE has an out of wedlock child.
That’s the problem between a black candidate is is actually half kenyan, and half white (However, the half-white doesn’t really get discussed about. The focus is on his blackness and the historical nature of his candidacy) and the civil rights usurper Jackson. Good thing his own son came out furiously against his off-color statements. Probably a reflection of disgust with his father giving him a sister he knew nothing about until it broke the press.
that’s it.
Ah, what will it be - Brazil, Filbert, Cashew, Peanut or Almond - what size will it be?????/Just Asking - seoul62......
I’ve been hearing that the segment that was released is tame compared to the rest of the comments Jackson made regarding Obama. I want to know the whole story, not just the cherry picking.
I think it’s the frustration of a man who has been a “leader” of the black community for a generation who is being replaced. Jackson’s power drive and need for public acclaim makes him a typical politician, and like all pols, will fight dirty if his position and self-esteem is threatened. Only his marginal constituency differs him from a U.S. Senator.
What a moron. True colors shinning through!
lame
lol
If Jesse ever had any, they are now in the possession of the Clintons in one of Hitlery's "lock boxes".

Guys, this whole thing is a Jesse set up for Obama. it’s a phoney Sister Souljah moment. Think about it. Jesse was at FOX NEWS in Chicago- FOX NEWS . He was on camera,- that’s right, sitting in front of a camera. And there were mikes all around him- you know, those things that pick up voices. So, Jesse Jackson, who’s been around the block about 800 times, suddenly decides in front of cameras and mikes at- FOX NEWS studio to diss Obama?
I agree completely. There is no way one iota of this is spontaneous. It is all part of a ploy to make it look like Obama is legitimately moving to the center. What a bunch of manipulative crap.
