Al Sharpton's Democratic Party

Al Sharpton really enjoys making candidates beg for his endorsement.

And yet they come.<<

He’s perceived by the left as the educated "house ni**er" that the rest of the plantation will listen to! (hope the word police research the term or this post will be removed)

Sharpton is "educated"? What schools did he go to?

Anyone who perceives that he's "educated" isn't very bright himself. Perhaps that's why the party is called the Dummycrats!

Pretty accurate title. The most entertaining thing about the imus fiasco was watching all the RATS and MSM grovelling to al and jesse, a couple of race-baiting con artists who should be in prison.

Don't know if I'd agree that the grovelling to Al and Jesse was "entertaining." Monica Crowley on her radio show yesterday was legimately angry at how this thing played out. She called it "surreal." It has a consequences down the road for free expression over the airwaves.

I rest my case your Honor!...>>>He’s “perceived” by the left as the educated...

[justiceseeker93]

Al and Jesse had practically vanished as objects of any political use until Imus made his crucial mistake...

Not quite. Yes, the Imus incident helped upgrade Sharpton's - and to a lesser extent, Jackson's - profile during the past couple of weeks. But these two are like so-called ambulance-chasing lawyers. If Imus hadn't uttered his unfortunate remarks, you can pretty much bet that there soon would have been some other incident somewhere around the the country for Sharpton to make hay about with the aid of an accommodating MSM.

And the Democrats would still think that both of them are useful in getting their black constituency "energized." Just last month, for example, Sharpton was prominent in HRC's entourage during her trip to Selma, AL.
