He’s still spouting that nonsense that a million blacks were disenfranchised, votes not counted in the last election. Several studies show that didn’t happen; Kerry’s pandering for the black conspiracy nut vote.

As far as I know, he implied it, but never said it.

Sure, most of the African Americans in this nation have had their ancestors pick cotten, but have they personally picked cotten? I don’t believe that anybody deserves anything based on the premise that somebody wronged their family (relatively far) in the past. Of course, I wouldn’t be surprised if somebody posts something contradicting my statement, with no evidence, and they somehow get around to calling me names.

“November 2, the power is in your hands, hands that once picked cotton,” Jackson said.

I don’t hate anybody but it urks me that this line can still be used today. Don’t read into that to much, I just think there are issues today that need addressing.
