Yes, I think all who know of the Reverend Al Sharpton know that he is black. BUT, as of this moment, I could care less if he's black or not.
However, it seems that in his campaign for President that not everyone seems top know this and he is forced to REPEATEDLY remind every white candidate that he is of African american descent.
Now, I don't care if he was blue, as long as he made a strong case for himself being a good president he would get my vote. The fact that he is black doesn't make him qualified in my opinion.
How about you?
This post may come off as racist, but if so then so be it. I've seen Al Sharpton on numerous programs, and it seems that being black is his ONLY qualification.

Actually - this post comes off as asinine.
He dropped out of the race weeks ago - in case you hadn't noticed.
:roll:
But nice of you to notice his color.

Sharpton on SNL was the most hilarious thing; that definitely showed he was, indeed, a black man! :lol:

The sad thing is...I clicked on the link. Amazing how one does not always read a link before one clicks on it.

I am a white male, and there is no way in hell I would have considered voting for Sharpton, but I liked the fact that he ran knowing he was going to lose. Mr. Dr. Rev. Al Sharpton kept the real canidates on their toes in the debates actually at times put the issues back in perspective, versus the comments made by other canidates to not answer the questions they were asked.
Also, Sharpton on SNL was one of the funnier SNL's I have seen in a long time.
Did you know that "Rev." Al Sharpton is actually not an ordained by any church but his own?

I agree.
Vote Dennis Kucinich - the only true Democrat! http://www.kucinich.us
Kucinich is 100x better than Kerry and the rest of the Democrats, including those who already dropped out. Too bad he didn't win the nomination. :cry:

I'd vote for a wilted tomato plant if I thought it was the most qualified for the job, so no, Sharpton's ethnicity had nothing to do with my lack of support for his candidacy. The fact that he's a demagogue with no political experience and a tenuous grasp on policy details is what doomed his candidacy for me. But he's a good rhetorician with a quick wit, which is why he was so good in the debates--he's funny. But he would be a horrible President, maybe even as bad as the current one.
