Does Charlie know that the pro-slavery Confederates were 100% Democrat?

Rangel is both a crook and race baiter.
He’s a disgrace.

When your political enemies are making foolish asses of themselves just keep your mouth shut and enjoy the show.
Rangel hasn’t had an intelligent thing to say in his entire career. He never fails to amuse.
