So what...everyone knows (including black people) that Jesse loves the limelight, and so can we be certain that his support of Obama, isn't necessarily for Obama's promotion, but for his own? I'm not so sure.
Jesse is integral part of the black movement toward equality and opportunity, but, some question his relevancy, now.
Bush said awful things about John McCain during his 2000 presidential bid...now they're buds( albeit, strange bedfellows)....do you think that Jesse's untimely remarks about Obama, matter in the long run? So what Jesse endorses Obama...what is the big deal?
I am not trying to convince anyone to vote for Obama...all I see is folks trying to convince the board, why no one should vote for him....propaganda, if you ask me...don't like him. don't vote for him....but can folks get a life and stop trying to convince themselves and others the justification for such? It must be a difficult pill to swallow....folks have to tell themselves (and everybody else) over, and over, and over and over, and over again, how bad and unprepared Obama is for the office...I guess in hopes that they actually come to believe it...because if they did, they wouldn't have to repeat it so often. Kinda psychotic...perhaps the opposite "is true"...that Obama is highly qualified, and more than up to the task...I think it's "fear of a black hat"....you know, so many white men, fear "black men" on the Mandingo tip...it just upsets their apple carts....when "black men", for the most part, don't even go there. It's not upper most in our minds....therapy might prove helpful to some...Obama is just running for president...not head of household, or anyone's wife's "boo". Geez.
