Why didn’t she think to mention Sheets Byrd?

A perfect opportunity squandered.

I agree, she missed her opportunity with Sheets. On the other hand, Sharpton actually had something of a point. Reid’s observation is predicated on the racism of white voters, who supposedly would only vote for a black that looked and sounded like him. We haven’t real evidence to disprovwe thw supposition, burt the implicit unproven accusation of racism is insulting—to the American populace.
