http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/07/10/jesse.jackson/index.html "While talking to a fellow interviewee, an open microphone picked up Jackson whispering, "See, Barack's been talking down to black people. ... I want to cut his nuts off."" Thank you so much for showing America what a complete jack a$$ you are. Now maybe the people who have supported him (Jackson) will realize that he is not, nor has he ever been, interested in improving the lives of black Americans. His real goal is to keep his following by making black Americans dependent on the government. That's why he pushes for handouts and affirmative action. He wants black people to believe the only way to get ahead is to have the government hold their hands and just give them what they need. Now that Obama has the audacity to prove otherwise, he's pissed. Even if he doesn't win the election, Obama has already proven that a black man in America can accomplish whatever he sets his mind to without affirmative action, racial quotas in colleges, or other handouts. It completely contradicts what Jesse Jackson has been preaching all this time. Just a reminder, I am no fan of Obama and I don't want him to become president for a variety of reasons I've discussed in other threads. I'm just so glad that his success has put Jesse Jackson in a position to expose his true nature. Frankly, I think it's pathetic that Obama IMMEDIATELY forgave these despicable remarks without any questions. Jesse Jackson's own son had more balls than Obama in this. "I'm deeply outraged and disappointed in Rev. Jackson's reckless statements about Sen. Barack Obama," the younger Jackson said. "His divisive and demeaning comments about the presumptive Democratic nominee -- and I believe the next president of the United States -- contradict his inspiring and courageous career."

Doesn't it make you think though. Jesse Jackson has openly supported Obama through out this whole campaign. they are supposely quite good friends. If he is downing his own friend shouldn't we all be worried?

Jesse Jackson's support has been minimal at best. He's already criticized Obama more than once. If you're looking for reasons to be worried about voting for Obama, there are no shortage of those. I just think Jackson is a moron and I loved seeing this happen to him.

Obama verse JJ who will be the leader of the African American population is what is on the line. For years JJ was that leader, but if Obama becomes President where does that put JJ. JJ says that a black men cannot become anything without him and his government friend. JJ needs white Democrats to be in charge to keep this charge of America is still a racist country. If America elects a black man how can this charge stick. Let us remember that JJ supported Hillary, and not Obama.
