Al Sharpton Attacks Dean as Promoting 'Anti-Black Agenda'

Democratic presidential candidate hopeful Al Sharpton let loose on rival Howard Dean today, charging:

Howard Dean's opposition to affirmative action, his current support for the death penalty and historic support of the NRA's [National Rifle Association's] agenda amounts to an anti-black agenda that will not sell in communities of color in this country."

"Any so-called African American leader that would endorse Dean despite his anti-black record is mortgaging the future of our struggle for civil rights and social justice," Sharpton said.

We have to say we think Sharpton is exaggerating. He has a long-standing rivalry with Rev. Jesse Jackson, whose son, Rep. Jesse Jackson, Jr., endorsed Dean yesterday.
