We had "the three tenors."
And now we have "the three Reverends." They should receive accolades as did Joe Louis, "... a scholar, a gentleman, and a credit to his race."
We have three black gentlemen, who have found distinguished careers as race pimps, the Rev. Jesse Jackson, the Rev. Al Sharpton, and the Rev. Jeremiah Wright. Of the three. Rev. Wright is probably by far the most intelligent although he is the last to attain recognition on the national scene.
Rev. Jackson has difficulty writing, and only other strengths, his extraordinary ingenuity and perseverance enabled him to complete college and receive a degree, and overcome his impairments, which would have prevented an ordinary man from succeeding. He subsequently demonstrated his assertiveness and insight when he as someone on the periphery was nonetheless able to capitalize on his physical proximity and build a career as initially self-declared carrying on the work of Martin Luther King. Rev. Jackson's success has been transgenerational, and if his son avoids any findings of culpability for involvement in the Governor succession scandal in Illinois, the family will continue to prosper. The Rev. Jacskon expressed scorn for Jews, referring to Hymietown, and periodically making negative observations.
Rev. Al (Bullhorn)Sharpton is largely uneducated and gruff, but nevertheless has had a successful career, advancing beyond what must have been his wildest expectations by organizing and exploiting the animosities of blacks. He has taken the low road trying to exploit such episodes as the Tawana Brawley fiasco, and the Duke rape scenario, unashamedly making rash and false allegations. In the meantime as has been Rev. Jackson, Sharpton as "a black leader" (alas the depths of leadership and ability make one shirk) has been provided with grants from both government sources and foundations which have supported him in a high life style. Rev. Al has also expressed his deeply held distaste for Jews, alleging urging a Jewish business be burned down which resulted in the deaths of Latino employees, and fomenting a riot in a Jewish area in which a Jew was killed by a black mob.
Then there is Rev. Wright, the best educated and most intelligent of the three, who attended schools for gifted children (in a Jewish neighborhood), and exploited dissatisfaction of blacks focusing on hatred for America which has provided them with such bounty, and also racial hatred and anti-Semitism. Rev. Wright's expressions of vitriol seem to have been largely vocalization.
Here we have three American black Reverends, who stand as inspirations to us all as to what may be accomplished in America under the most adverse conditions.
