12. Only one out of three police were white,the police that did a lot of the shooting was black , because that has been left out of all this for propanganda reasons -- this would,apparently, make sharpton(and others) a borderline facist .

15. The filth about Jews that comes out of Sharptons mouth is unacceptable.

Barack Obama should immediately denounce Al Sharpton's endorsement.
