Sharpton on CSPAN at 7:50 a.m. EST Wednesday

Say what you will about him, but I always enjoy listening to him. It will be interesting to listen to the calls.

1. I'm listening...

...I fully expect the worst wingnuts to jump at the opportunity to call in. And we have our first caller. No mention of support or lack thereof. Ok, support. Applauding Sharptons ability to get out the quips. White people agree with you, but won't support you because of the color of your skin. Yeah, definately not a Bush supporter ;)

3. Well, there you go

Black woman caller begging him to back out of the race saying that he is setting blacks back 100 years, that she would rather vote for Mickey Mouse and that NO black people agree with a thing that he says.

4. yes, that woman was the only "wingnut" caller

who took issue with Sharpton
and he handled her well
as it turns out, now that his segment is over
where were the callers on the support bush line?

2. To solve economic problems

repeal Bush tax cut

rebuild nation's infrastructure with $250 billion job creation program

regulate big business, end off-shore loophole

Questioning was tough to start off with. Started with litany of races lost, support of Castro (which was saying something flattering about leadership), and calling Churchill as imperialist. He talked about how destructive it is to democracy to have top tier candidates determined solely on basis of amount of money raised.
