Is Al Sharpton still relevant outside of NY Democrat politics and mainstream media?

    Unfortuneately yes, because the dems need a cheerleader to call every dissent even remotely related to Obama as racist.

    Reverand Al has done more to damage race relations than just about anyone (except maybe the former Gov. Wallace) and now he is doing it with the full blessing of the dems. Scary. His staged protest remind me of Iran.

    Sharpton is only relevant when he finds "racism". Although most of it is made up, over exaggerated, misguided ignorant inventions of racism. He has made his career off of pointing fingers and he is worthless. He could find anyone racists and attempt to ruin their lives by slandering them with his 3rd grade grammar and the few "big" words he knows.

    he isn't relevant in NY democrat politics. He is one black person, that I am Truly ashamed of. He is a want to be MLK. Yeah I said it.

    He waits for something to happen, then boom, on TV he goes, running his mouth. Just to let you know, he doesn't speak for 95% of the black community. Just 5% of the no brain crackheads that listen to him

    If he is relevant there, those people need a clue. Al could use a couple himself.

    He just thinks about himself. Does he ever stick up for any other people that don't get all the news stories? If it is not news worthy, he doesn't care. He and Jesse have been paid off by many large corporations to keep quiet. Are they hustlers or what? You can take a hustler out of the ghetto, but you can't take the hustler out of them.

    He is/was only relevant when someone can point to his "no fair" cry whenever some racial issue comes up that is all about him.

    That crapola sandwich should've went to jail for that Tawana Brawley hoax which messed up people's lives.

    I wasn't aware that he was relevant at all, other than a man with an opinion like any other.

    Are you saying his opinion isn't relevant?

  • It's funny that you never hear him defend a white person who is being "discriminated" against.

    Still?

    He and Jesse Jackson were never relevant in anything in my life.
