I totally agree with everything else you said, except this.

He can't be too intelligent if his only claim to fame is the race card. He's a racist and a bigot, plain and simple. He feeds off twisting insignificant occurances into a big political and racial event. He has a one track mind. Everything he has ever done has ONE purpose in mind, that is why he is a racist. People can stand up against prejudice. People can protest against injustice. But when you constantly do it for every single thing which has only ONE common thread (color/race) then you lose credibility. That is why Al Sharpton is a joke and a hinderance to the Black community rather than a positive role model IMO.

Everything else I agree with you on though....
