Like Him or hate Him Jackson is one of the few who has stood up for minorities and called for change against public resistance. His work has gained Him numerous awards including the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
He may sound like a nutcase to you at times, but remember...A) you're not His audience and B) the squeaky wheel gets the grease

Spence said, quote: "Like Him or hate Him Jackson is one of the few who has stood up for minorities..."
Yes, he has stood up for minorities ONLY when it has suited his purpose - and has offered the chance for the limelight. The man excels in self-promotion and making money by means of his Rainbow Coalition. (Now the Rainbow/PUSH Coalition.)
quote: "His work has gained Him numerous awards including the Presidential Medal of Freedom."
One word: "Tokenism."
quote: "He may sound like a nutcase to you at times, but remember...A) you're not His audience..."
But we ARE his target audience. You don't get offerings by addressing poor folks. They're usually tapped out. Quite naturally, he goes after the money.
quote: "...and B) the squeaky wheel gets the grease"
A somewhat dangerous analogy, sir.
PS: 'Can't help but noticing your use of the capital "H" when typing "Him." It suggests that he is a some sort of deity. I assure you, sir, he is not.

Arno, you're completly missing the point. It's not about how admirable Jackson is, but the reality of his impact...

Swimmer mentioned the name of Al Sharpton. Everything you need to know about Sharpton can be summed up in his actions in the Tawana Brawley cluster-fluck. This site (below) gives a brief look at the incident. By means of his involvement, Sharpton showed himself to be the racist he really is. And it's all part of the baggage he carries to this day.
