Jesse We Need You!

[Ambrosious]

Just watched the king of cliche wrap up his speech in Fl. While he was talking "In Flo dah they is axin fo ah recount, he ah in Palm Beach, we need a Fir ah st Count!" a woman in the church yelled "JESSE WE NEED YOU!" Was she one of the 19,000 to stupid to figure out the ballot.

Also I think that the ballot is posted all over the internet. If you haven't seen it, goto http://www.kimmer.net that's where I found it.

A double Jesse ticket????

Jackson and Ventura for Prez and Veep?

You talk about talkin'?

Maybe they could run against each other - what a debate?

So long as a translator was provided,,, it should be worth a chuckle or three,,,

Why is it that I have such a hard time understanding the Rev. JJ ?? It's just me isn't it ?

Your post makes it clear that you might have a problem with certain groups having a right to vote in this country. I have some breaking news for you: stupid people have just as much right to vote in this country as do smart people. Try not to get too angry, but I also heard that Blacks and women are now allowed to vote as well.

Regardless of your uninformed and utterly insulting opinion of Jesse Jackson, he is extremely intelligent and a very popular man to whom a large group of people in this country look to for leadership when they want their voices to be heard.

It has been reported by CNN that 15% of the Black votes in one county in Florida were voided for as-yet-unspecified reasons. Bush says that he wants to "unite" people, not "divide" them, but I have yet to hear any concern from his camp about possible civil rights violations in the state that his brother governs. Does Bush actually want to unite "people" or just "white people"?

At the end of the day, Gore has more votes in Florida than Bush. Unfortunately, and for reasons that are clear to no one, many of Gore's votes are sitting in trash cans while Bush's remain on the table. Even if the Bush Brothers aren't successful in stealing the election, they've already been successful in tarnishing the Presidency and making America look foolish in the eyes of the world.

As I've said before, regardless of who wins, neither candidate is going to be legitimate in the eyes of a majority of Americans. That's the saddest thing to me.

I only hit you because I love you.

Laurel you see race, I see stupidity.

Jesse Jackson is a very inteligent man, no question, no argument.

But this is grandstanding pure and simple. As I said before in another thread. Old, young, rich, poor, black, white. Stupidity knows no barriers.

If for something as important as this you can't figure out a ballot. I for one, am thankfull your vote was spoiled.

As far as the "lost" ballot boxes I will await confirmation of that by more reliable sources than heresay.

Laurel.....

Maybe - you read too much into this thread - perhaps.

Nobody, regardless of intellect or skin color is above "being made fun of." No one, not the Pope, not God, nobody.

Jesse Jackson does have a lisp and inserts words, "he makes up," into his oratory all the time.

Also: As mentioned on another thread (I won't fully repeat it here) I've worked for him, actually twice. Once, as was mentioned in the other thread - when I found him to be sleazy and greedy. Actually a theif.

The other - not mentioned yet - I was wiring an apartment - a secret bachelor-pad apartment in DC - for stereo equipment and TV equipment. He made no bones that the apartment was intended for nooner's and parties with girlfriends - of course he was/is married.

None of my business really, neither of these experiences. But......

I don't find him a valuable leader, for anyone - he is/has successfully duped his own constituency for years.

I've heard many other negative things regarding him that I won't reproduce here because I was not directly involved - the sources were pretty good though and none of them would be obvious, via skin color, to be prejudiced against him - to the contrary.

I don't know how the others on this thread feel about the man but I for one don't like him and have valid reason for it.

Perception is the only reality - for those, who for some reason are masked from truth.

Well said, Expertise, and much more diplomatic than the post I intended to write after seeing the above. Thye ballot was publicly available for weeks prior to the election, without a word of complaint being heard until after the polls closed, and also the ballot was approved by the Democrats and Republicand in advance. The rest of her comments are all new to me and remain to be made public anywhere as far as I know.
