Ridiculous. Jesse Jackson is awful. He has no right to veto coaching candidates.

The problem with Jesse Jackson is that he is out of a job and out of influence if he doesn't constantly find some excuse to scream "racism." It's no longer about finding issues that will help minorities, it's about grabbing headlines. Way to go, Jesse. You provide fuel for the far right - and I'm sure you're fine with that since it cements your place in the public eye.

IMO, Jesse Jackson is a modern version of the minstrel show.... the white mainstream media love him because he represents what white racists think of blacks. He gives the whites someone to feel good about hating. He does as much as any other one person in the country to keep blacks down.
