Why does anyone respect or listen to Jesse Jackson?
He is a bigoted man who is only in the limelight because he walked with one of the greatest Americans who ever lived MLK. His recent comments toward President-elect Obama were crude and enciteful. The worst part is, he said these things in response to Obama, telling it like it is! Black men do IN FACT leave their kids 50% of the time!! When will blacks in America accept that they are flawed in many ways and make the changes necessary to garner the respect of the rest of the country and stop throwing the pity party?
Jackson said, "See, Barack's been talking down to black people ... I want to cut his nuts off."
Patrick M. ... Great point!! With Obama as President, maybe blacks will stop giving Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton the soapbox and just tell them they don't represent the black community anymore!!! Woundn't that be a HUGE positive outcome of this election!!
Kelly B... First of all, the ONLY reason Jackson has ever gone to another country to assist in the release of Americans was to get his ugly mug on camera and his Leftist stance has made him someone slightly respected by Marxist/Socialist leaders.
Secondly, I have been in the military for 22 years so far and served 4 of that in combat against enemies of the United States. I have been shot at, mortored, rocketed and IEDd. I have even had to kill others. So, I think your ignorant comment may have been better directed at someone else.
