The Rev. Al Sharpton said his civil rights organization, the National Action Network, is "engaged in immediate conversations" with the White House as they work to name a successor to Attorney General Eric Holder, who is set to announce his resignation Thursday afternoon.
"We are engaged in immediate conversations with the White House on deliberations over a successor whom we hope will continue in the general direction of Attorney General Holder," Sharpton said in a statement.
Sharpton praised Holder, the first African-American attorney general, as the "best" one in history when it comes to civil rights.

With all the fuss about names of things lately, I'm shocked that no black community self appointed mouthpiece hasn't demanded the name change of the "White"house?
Let's start a name drive to begin the healing?
I vote for, "Le Crib Noir"
Noir is French for black and is a type of fiction or a film that has tough characters and is cynical, bleak and pessimistic in nature.

That thought crossed my mind, too. To somehow get him away from his Benghazi committee.

VAN JONES This is the ONE person who is worse than Holder, IF THAT'S POSSIBLE. Obama will select Jones to piss off white America.

Don’t know about that, but Patrick could take over on Jan 2 when the drones in Boston install Coakley, the current Dem Nominee

The senate confirmation hearings would never let that happen just before elections. It will be some dumb-a$$ white woman like Marie Harff, or that Jen Psatki nitwit.

I need to look into this.
The left-bees LOVE Holder.

You know Laurence Tribe is hoping and praying. He’s been praising Obama as a genius pupil since The Kenyan got into the WH. All for naught; Tribe is way too white.
Like some others, I think it will be Deval Patrick. If not, then how about Prof. Gates of beer summit fame. He could ride that tricycle of his all over DC—maybe even down the hallways of the WH, a la Omen.

He’s resigning now rather than next year in case the GOP takes over the Senate, I bet Obama told him to.
So that gives a few months for Reid to get a new one through the Senate with 50 votes plus Biden.

Well, we knew the next one would be an America-hating black separatist redistributionist.
