It was great to see. I think Jesse tends to put his foot in his mouth 
on more than one occassion, and is too addicted the limelight, but I 
think overall people tend to malign him unfairly--throwing out the baby 
with the bathwater. I think that shot was worth a million, as the man 
who once stood over the body of a slain MLK could now look at this 
historic event. His issues with Obama, I've always thought, had to do 
with the fact that Jesse is an activist and Obama is a politician. But, 
all odd "nut cuttin" comments aside, the two have a long-if-not-always-
close relationship (his daughter is one of Obama's children's 
godmother), so there are certainly paternal allusions to be made. 

Can't front on dem tears.
