Absolutely. They use him as a deflection most of the time
Let me frank with you: because white people have zero interest in doing whats right, they will find anything to deflect off the issue at hand. There are two ways to go about this. One, you can try to help someone with acute adhd, or, two you can ignore their asses. We have been complaining about the same issue for about one hundred and thirty years now.

from the home of coca-cola, i'm not referring to s
A lot of the stuff we get angered by wouldn't have even been known nationally if it weren't for Sharpton and for that I :salute: him . The powers that be can't stand him. It's funny to see Tavis Smiley and Dr. West go against the man when in reality Sharpton may have done more than both combined.

They WANT you to dislike Sharpton. Does he suck at reading a teleprompter.....YES however I've seen him own conservatives like Hannity in debates before in the past. He brings attention to civil rights situations that NEVER would see the light of day. There is no real reason to disdain him. They just resort to name calling like calling him a "race peddler", "race baiter" "hustler" or buffoon but rarely bring up an actual situation.
Honestly I think one of the real reasons blacks like to hate on him is because he's funny looking and rocked that goofy perm... If the breh looked like Obama nikka would be held in muh higher esteem

Can't say I disagree with you. Looks and presentation go a long way in this world especially in the black community. I work in government for a city position. I literally carry myself in a very Obama-esque way. People, especially other black people are impressed by mean even before I open my mouth because I rock a low cut and have tailored fitting slim fit suits in my arsenal as well as being 6'0 and good shape. All that shouldn't even matter. However, we live in a Sprite society. Image is everything. Sharpton can't really change his "image" at this point, its cemented, but us thinkers know the difference.

He's done more harm than good IMO. Ambulance chaser, doesn't do his homework/research, and is a very poor spokesman. The thing about past "black leaders," especially Malcolm X, was that they were good public speakers AND debaters. Whereas Sharpton and Jackson come off as buffoons more often than not. They're emotional and rely on a variety of bad analogies, poor logic, etc.

Maybe you should be a black leader since he's a buffoon in your eyes and you can obviously do better.:sas2:

He's never beaten anyone in an election, and therefore never won an election in a major party
He's never influenced or sponsored any significant bills or laws
Every race related incident he latches on to results in the person he's marching or giving press conferences for takes an L.

To me the only major accomplishment Sharpton has is the weight loss. He uses racial tension as a way to make money. :mjpls: He doesn't even have a lot of white allies that would ride or die for this cause (if one even exists). And for some reason he gets to be one of the faces of black people in this country :scusthov:

Hes a far better leader and speaker then that opportunist Sharpton would ever be.

Cuz Farrakhan doesn't walk around with a perm looking like a damn corporate pimp. The media focuses on Sharpton and Jesse Jackson cuz they are the "safe" leaders. White people don't feel threatened by them. In fact they laugh at them. To them Farrakhan is:demonic:
