Al Sharpton Considers Running For President



Sharpton considers running for president

NEW YORK - Civil rights activist Al Sharpton said Monday he is seriously considering a run for president.

"I don't hear any reason not to," Sharpton, 52, said in an interview during an urban affairs conference sponsored by another civil rights leader, the Rev.Jesse Jackson
"If we're talking about the urban agenda, can you tell me anybody else in the field who's representing that right now?" Sharpton asked. "We clearly have a reason to run, and whether we do it or not we'll see over the next couple of months."
"Right now we're hearing a lot of media razzle dazzle," Sharpton said. "I'm not hearing a lot of meat, or a lot of content. I think when the meat hits the fire, we'll find out if it's just fat or if there's some real meat there."

Sharpton said the candidate who impressed him most so far was former North Carolina Sen.John Edwards, who has made poverty the central issue of his campaign.


Wild Thing's comment......

LMAO oh my gawd, well thank you Al, we needed some comic relief.

Sharpton said. "I'm not hearing a lot of meat, or a lot of content. I think when the meat hits the fire, we'll find out if it's just fat or if there's some real meat there."

Good Lord! Is he campaigning for President or doing a fast-food ad? Where's the beef?

Sad. Why do blacks tolerate these buffoons?

Let the Muqtada al Sharpton run, he and Jackson don't care about the nation, only their holding sway over their own minions, besides it splits the ticket and gives a real candidate a chance.

Oh, I do believe this is going to be a fun show to watch! We have clowns (see above), contortionists (of the truth), acrobats (balancing corruption) and magicians (watch the money disappear!!)

"YEAH!
Hello
Here I am!
Here we are,we are one
I've been waiting for this night to come
Get up!
Now it's time for me to take my place
The make-up runnin' down my face
We're exiled from the human race.

You're in the psy
You're in the psycho circus
You're in the psy
You're in the psycho circus
I say welcome to the show."

(psycho circus by kiss)
