As he has made anti Semitic comments.

But in this case it's sanders supporters who seem to think he is so great and thst Sanders supported him. And that jackson may endorse Sanders . And black people should think it's so great.

Black posters aren't following Jackson on this.

Also the ones who they keep mentioning as being so horrible in this campaign are jewish like Debbie w Schultz.

Anti semitism is a problem and it should be discussed but there is a lot of dishonesty in how that was brought up. There was a thread in this forum from a while back on it .

I got a PM asking a long list of questions from a Hillary supporter. Am I being interrogated? thereismore Feb 2016 #64

It's your "choice" to respond to the long list or not. I love "choices". Don't you? Tarheel_Dem Feb 2016 #65
