5. He mentioned how the end of slavery...
..said everyone ex-slave would get 40acres and a mule, then about how they've been fighting for it and finally he said:

We haven't gotten our mule yet but we're going to ride this donkey until the end.

Go online to C-SPan.org and you can watch the convention there. You can also get rebroadcasts and Al Sharpton is a MUST DOWNLOAOD

9. No cable..go to PBS
It takes more than zinger one liners, Stewart.

But he's talking solid truth. Fire too.

John Cusack is sitting next to Hillary--Sen Clinton. Another fine
actor activist. Yaaaaauuuuh..

11. Yes, thanks for the good, fiery speach, Al... but...
Shame on you for your shameful attacks against Howard Dean during the debates last fall.

Don't forget. Dean was the one, who according to the Convention's own MC introduced Howard Dean as the candidate who "energized" the Democratic party.

Had Kerry not imitated and co-opted Dean's positions and lines, John Edward would be our nominee today.
