Sharpton Is Suspect

I hate that Rev. Al Sharpton has been named the voice of black America by the news media. The danger in that is, as soon as he does something unethical they judge all black America by that as well. Al Sharpton doesn't speak for me in most cases if ever. A lot of others share my feelings, but we're not on the evening news like him. Why should I as a black person have to defend his actions when he gets caught? Last week several of his associates and employees were supenoed, but they didn't bother him. They have twenty audio tapes and even a video to bolster the case. In the largest corruption scandal in Philadelphia history. Al Sharpton was accused of brokering city contracts, in exchange for contributions to his 2004 presidential campaign or civic organization (NAN). All of the other people involved are already in jail doing time. How do you think he got away, if indeed he did? I don't think he has, it was just a temporary stay. I think what they did is just take their time to build a better case against him.
