Al's no Reverend and neither is Jesse Jackson. Neither has finished divinity school, neither has ever had a church, and neither has ever had a congregation. Al was "ordained" at age 10 by a DC preacher and has perpetuated the myth ever since. Both are professional race baiters who wouldn't even warrant a dot in history if it wasn't for them grabbing face time on TV at every opportunity. Worse, even though they always seem to come down on the wrong side of the truth (e.g., Tawana Brawley, the Duke Five, etc.) they never admit it, but just move on to the next place where they can stir the racial pot. If they didn't, both would be out of a job. It's the MSM that keeps them afloat.
Jackson and Sharptongue are not at fault here. If the networks turned off the cameras when they started speaking, they would dry up and blow away. The other half of the problem are the large corp who submitted to Jackson’s extortion and signed over franchises and blood money to him and his family.
Even though they are always wrong, Sharpton and Jackson are still idolized by probably a third of the American people.
