  • My favorite Jesse Jackson speech! Hilarious!

  • This remains one of my all-time favorite things I've ever seen on SNL.

  • The uploader appears to have a problem with the star (or lack thereof) on their belly.

  • Classic!!!

  • What's with all of this hate and talk of racism? It's Dr. Seuss, lol. Personally, I thought it was pretty funny. Lighten up people.

  • Wow, after reading some of these comments I think Dr Suess, writer of CHILDRENS BOOKS, would turn over in his grave.

  • 1991? holy shit this was like yesterday!!!

  • i remember watching this live. it was awesome

  • JESSE JACKSON!

  • what the heck a she man at the end?

  • @thatbinetkid It's a Satuday Night Light sketch...

  • lmao love him

  • Hillarious! Great sport...lol

  • wish embedding wasn't disabled

  • goddamn lie,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,you fake

  • One of the best.....EPIC

    

  • I am not sure how a chance to comment on one of the funniest things ever on TV can turn into a commentary on Racism. Laugh and move on!!

  • I hate this race-baiting bastard, but I have to admit this is a classic.

  • This sorry excuse for a man is a race-baiter and an opportunist, just like his good buddy Al "What Hypocrisy?" Sharpton. He claims that he is in touch with impoverished inner city people, and is fighting for their causes. What a joke-his only cause is to be the first person to comment on radio and t.v. programs whenever the subject of race is involved. He should stop lining his pockets and step the fuck down-douchebag.

  • So if Jesse made a lot of money off racism, it must be a really powerful entity.

    Care to name anyone else who has made money off of racism? Namely, some of those who implemented it?

  • i dont get it

  • "RACISM is a waste of time" Bill Cosby. Only stupid ignorant skin heads can talk shit about a particular race of people behind a computer but in real life/up close & personal, they act like a scared piece of shit, b/c they know they will get their skinny asses kicked!

  • @glamoursangel Why, thank you my dear.

  • I remember this from a long time ago lol.

  • @holocaustwasright76 you do realize that this was a SNL comedy skit...in addition to your mom's alcoholism and your dad's verbal/physical abuse towards you as a child, i guess being racist doesnt compare to your family's inbreeding? Meth is a powerful drug huh? YOU NEED JESUS!

  • @iL0VEwomensfeet Haha yeah my parents were abusive. At least they weren't whiney hippie, jesus loving fucks like your. Oh and they didn't leech of the government like yours, stupid welfare baby fuck!

  • @holocaustwasright76 awwhhh did i hurt your feelings?..LMAO..is your mom still fat and ugly? one tooth missing & still smoking the same type of cigarettes for 19 years walking around the trailer bare foot with yellow teeth? & is your alcoholic dad still wearing the same old flannel shirt going to a country bar picking up nasty trailer trash whores? it seems like all the 23 people in your entire inbred family needs government assistance! whats wrong you nazi reject? the truth finally hits ya!.

  • @iL0VEwomensfeet Are you still taking it up the ass like a good little bitch? Does your dad still come home drunk and molest you like the little 12 year old you are? Do you still suck that nigger cock like there's no tommorrow? I don't mind talking about the issues with you, but if you wanna throw mud and make some personal attacks, I'll come back at ya.

  • @holocaustwasright76 awwhh did i hurt ur feelings again? LMAO once more.whats wrong? u caught ur mother sleeping with a black man? I guess the truth hurts huh?..otherwise u would have totally ignored the last truthful comment i made about u & your inbred family..you're a waste of time!.ignorant fags such as yourself make me laugh..reading your retarded comments that no one cares about is just like watching sarah palin on tv..I cant help but laugh :) METH & ENVY are powerful combinations huh?

  • @iL0VEwomensfeet OMG! i loved all of your comments you made towards that racist little faggot hilter wannabe and you got him told real good. great work dude.. I'm Megan, i wanted to introduce myself. ttyl

  • @sunshinebeauty100 hi megan, its nice to meet u. wow, who would ever thought i'd meet a woman on here...how are u today? I'm david...i get on here to watch a few of my favorite music videos & old classic tv shows,etc..yeah that stupid ignorant wannabe hilter kid is just trying to get people's attention.he's one of those type of 19 yr old kids who dont have any friends nor any hope in life therefore he uses hatred as a way to lash out towards others..u see, his parents were also cousins. LMAO :)

  • @iL0VEwomensfeet Did you write this while sucking your boyfriend's cock? It was so well thought out that you had to have had some inspiration behind it. No one important cares about faggots like you. Basically when the race war comes, you'll be hung for being a traitor to your race. Then it won't be so funny will it faggot?

  • @holocaustwasright76 U again? everyone knows that you're a little19 year old bastard kid who dont have goals in life nor any hope. Faggot, go do some homework or something, get a job, go to school & stop sitting at home in your mother's bedroom typing on her old computer wasting time with your pathetic life. Are you angry at the world? or Are you still tromatized that you caught your mother on her knees giving head to all the black men in yalls neighborhoods. just like hitler, you're gay also!

  • @iL0VEwomensfeet Lol I got a job faggot. I'm not the one replying to every single comment the same fucking day cause I have a life outside the internet unlike your nerdy ass. Are you mad cause you know you'll never make it with a girl? Must suck knowing you'll be a virgin all your life huh? Probably sucks as much as you suck cock! Oh, and I probably make more money at my job than you do at your pizza job. Did mommy let you use her car to get to work today?

  • @holocaustwasright76 cleaning up the streets wearing inmate orange suits & being chained to other inmates is not a job moron, its your probation community service.LMAO.u seem like one of those wannabe wiggers trying to act hard but is a racist little fag at the same time.TYPICAL!.your drunk cigarette smoking mother cant afford to bail your trashy ass out of jail. I'm a ARCHITECT with a masters degree..I've probably designed the house you & your mother is living in. Does her throat still hurts?

  • @iL0VEwomensfeet Bullshit, you've never done shit with your life you shit talking little punk. You still live at home with mommy and daddy and wack off to anime porn or some shit. I'm most certainly not a wigger, I'm proud to be white and live the white culture. How much cock did you suck before you wrote that? I'm sure your boyfriend helped you. You're a little nerd who will never do anything with his life. You'll be killed for being a race traitor.

  • @holocaustwasright76 LMAO, you're one funny ass stupid & ignorant idiot..u remind of sarah palin..i cant help but to laugh..but unlike her, you dont have no money..lol..and as ive been saying all along, YOU'RE GAY! the written evidence is obvious..every time you've replied, it was always something related to "cock sucking"..thats tells everyone that alot of "in house" things are going on between you and your fat ugly mom and your gay father...THIS IS WHY INBREEDING IS ILLEGAL HERE IN AMERICA!.

  • @iL0VEwomensfeet I don't have no money? Lmao can't even use proper grammar you dumbfuck! If saying someone is gay makes them gay, then you must be one flaming faggot. I guess you're just pissed off cause your mom didn't cut the crust off your sandwiches huh? Go get a degree and stop being a fuckin leech!

  • @holocaustwasright76 you again? really? what type of meth have you been smoking in the last few days? DID YOU GET HIT WITH A FEW FIRE CRACKERS over the weekend? B/c you're on some serious drugs and medication. I guess your "homo" lifestyle is taking an effect on your pathetic life. Just as Ive been saying all this time, you're a scared little19 year old faggot who acts like a wannabe skinhead..BTW, hitler (your gay roll model) was also a faggot in his personal life. Racism is a waste of times!

  • @iL0VEwomensfeet For someone to call me gay, you sure do talk about it alot. Did mommy not give you any titty, is that why you're in a pissed off mood? Or maybe you're just menstruating idk. Lol go kill yourself faggot, you'll never get laid living in your parents basement, you're an embarrassment to the human race.

  • @holocaustwasright76 I shot "my" FIRE CRACKER down your mother's mouth on July 3rd & 5th while you were out with your drunk dad. I gave her mouth a rest on July 4th. You sound like a typical skinny trailer trash who would try to hang yourself again if President Obama got elected for a second term. Ive convinced your mom to vote for him again next year & to show my appreciation, i agreed to help her clean up the mess we made on the basement floor(your trashy bed room) where she puked on my dick.

  • @iL0VEwomensfeet Are you 11? Your arguement is as good as a preteen's. I mean if you wannat debate the issues like an adult that's fine, but you're arguement must really suck if all you got is some jokes about my mom. It's kinda sad that niggers come up with better arguements and comebacks than you. Guess you're just not smart enough to have an intelligent debate, you have to resort to name calling and shit talking. You're a child.

  • @holocaustwasright76 you're the fucking moron! All you've talking about is racist bullshit & "how people are going against their race" its 2011 you ignorant little faggot, nobody gives a damn about you & hilter relations. Talking about how someone cant hold a "adult debate", since when does calling racial slurs becomes a mature debate. You & your retared family is fucked up. You're dumber than those inbred "missing tooth" redknecks on Jerry Springer! Btw, ur mom is secretely dating a black man.

  • @holocaustwasright76 Are you 12? or is that the number of people in your inbred family? Country trailer park trashy! All you can do is talk shit behind a keyboard, like most ignorant racist little skinny bastards such as yourself. you call black people a racial slur but guess what..for everytime you use that slur, thats the number of black men your mother is sucking off with her mouth..just remind your pathetic brain that everytime..WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO OFFICIALLY HANG YOURSELF? you're a idiot!

  • @iL0VEwomensfeet Lol I'm the one trying to talk about the issues here, you're the one using playground names like a 5th grader. I mean damn you're the one talkin shit about me before you ever even talked to me fuckin hippie. Go kill yourself, no one will ever miss you fuckin ignorant ass lmao!

  • @holocaustwasright76 Lol seriously just stop while you're behind. Hitler lost the war because he underestimated our army for being "racially mixed". Now how did the German army lose to a bunch of what you call "niggers"? Because they thought they had the upperhand when they didn't. Oh, and if you think nazism is as conservative as it gets, you'd be wrong, anarchy is. You're basically a socialist/corporatist if you support nazism and Hitler.

  • @xtremejohnny69 Actually, Hitler lost because the jews rigged the war in the allies favor and the fuckin chinks in Japan decided to attack America, giving the allies an unfair advantage. Hitler should have just told those chink bastards to gtfo. He also should have waited to invade Russia. The world would be a better place if Hitler would have won the war.

  • @holocaustwasright76 to prove your pathetic ignorance, if it wasnt for African Americans, USA wouldnt have all of the things we have now. Such as the traffic light, the 18 wheeler truck, the ice box (the refrig.), the can opener, peanut butter, record needles , the world's first "open heart" surgery, the stove and the GAS MASK (inwhich hitler's troops used) HOW IRONIC..These were all inventions that were created by early African Americans, the same people that you call racial slurs to.HOW IRONIC

  • @holocaustwasright76

    Actually, "chink" is a racial slur for Chinese people, not Japanese. You're pretty stupid.

  • @jamborino A "chink" is the space between armor plates, or the small opening where a link of chain opens. It's an obvious slit reference. Get your shit straight.

  • @holocaustwasright76 ...You need to read a fucking history book. The nazi propaganda machine incorporated the Japanese and promoted them as an ally. And the bombing of Pearl Harbor did absolutely nothing to help the Allies. By the way, the Russians are tough. It wouldn't have mattered if Hitler had waited until right after winter ended, the Russians would have held the Nazis off until the next winter. The Nazis were geniuses when it came to warfare, but they didn't under stand culture.

  • @xtremejohnny69 ... Actually, socialism is different...

  • @holocaustwasright76 do everyone a HUGE favor & go kill yourself by overdosing on drugs like most people such as yourself typically do after a short while of non stop anger & hatred. You have a huge problem! I know 8 year old kids that acts like a human being, unlike you. As long as you are living in America (the land of freedom for EVERYONE), ethnic groups such as Indians, Asians, Italians, Native Americans, Afro Americans & HISPANICS, are always going to be around you everywhere you go!

  • @holocaustwasright76 I hope you fall in love with a black jewish gypsy...

  • @FowCowMow Me too and yes it WAS awesome. Still love it today.

  • @iL0VEwomensfeet Dude, as stupid as this guy is, he kinda has a point. You're only making people who hate nazism like myself look bad by not calling him on his shit. I mean it may be funny to say his mom's suckin your dick, but what does that prove? Not much really, just that you know how to crack a joke. Prove him wrong by making a good case against him.

  • @iL0VEwomensfeet "reading your retarded comments that no one cares about is just like watching sarah palin on tv"  -You

    All the more reason to shut the fuck up.

  • @Yieiuu = another METH addict..who obviously havent been watching all of the Meth TV commercials...TYPICAL addict fag.

    Are your parents cousins to each other? or are you just another molested little faggot who writes bullshit to others.

    Your drunk mother should have swallowed instead of taking it in her vagina while conceiving you. All the more reason to jump out in front of a moving car.

  • @iL0VEwomensfeet Still going? Feel better?

  • Comment removed

  • @iL0VEwomensfeet You're like a special new kind of retard that I haven't seen before.

  • @holocaustwasright76 all the inventions that were created by early African Americans are things that i know you & your pathetic family uses everyday..especially open heart surgery..with all of your ignorance & hatred, you'll probably be needing "open heart" surgery to fix that "evil" heart of yours. LMAO..hilter used GAS MASKS for his troops by which was invented by Garret A. Morgan "a Black man"..now see, you learned something today, I betcha you feel educated & stupid at the same time!

  • @holocaustwasright76 Woah, woah, woah, whats with all the hate dude? Do you seriously wonder why people call you racist after saying something like that?

  • That is my favorite book. From it sprung the seed of war and rebellion! :)

  • But you do.You do like green eggs and ham

  • FOR REAL SOMETIMES U JUST HAVE TO SAY " I DONT LIKE GREEN EGGS AND HAM, FUCK OFF!"

  • Why are the Blogger and FaceBook share functions deactivated?

  • These were some of the most intelligent statements he ever made.

  • @mjn76 Agreed. This is by far the most intelligent thing I've ever heard come out of this man's mouth.

  • Comment removed

  • @saucycruz Jackson is a RACISM merchant ...he NEEDS racism to make money, he USES phony claims of racism to make money.

  • Comment removed

  • @saucycruz You sincerely are not familiar with Jacksons history? Or are you just pulling my leg?

  • This was such a classic SNL moment.

    This was just after Dr. Seuss died. This was their little tribute.

  • Love Jesse in this. So funny and poignant. Say... lot of haters up in here.

  • Jesse Jackson Calls for 'Radical Reordering' of American Economy is a socialist, like Hilter. watch?v=E_vCLQnebX0

    .

    Jesse Jackson should start by giving up his $10 million (from celebrity net worth com) before asking others to give up there money. President Obama who also wants to spread the wealth has $5 million. watch?v=Sj4yIE9Dd90 & watch?v=PUvwKVvp3-o

  • @Oktoberfesting as a German, I would like to say your full of shit and stop referencing Hitler. You had your own dictators, his name was Bush.

  • @snowwolf7777 Actually Bush was for smaller governent powers.... which is detrimental to dictatorship. Genious.

  • @hooplablahblahblah really?, because increased government agency such as the NSA, TSA, he was responsible for the US government take over of the auto industry. You dictators are also for smaller government, especial the parts of government that prevent them from taking absolute power.

  • @snowwolf7777 Jokes on you smart guy. Most of that stuff wasdone by congress in Bush's second term. Or during Obama's term. If you don't know what your talking about you shouldn't say anything.

  • Just b/c you don't like this horrid reading of green eggs and ham doesn't make you a racist ........like Jesse Jackson

  • Preach on brother, preach on!!

  • lol

  • I can't stand this guy but he nailed it. Perfect delivery.

  • Dr. Seuss would have laughed, had he watched it. Please give the man some credit for having a sense of humor.

    Jesse did a great job.

  • Jessie Jackson is a corrupt asshole. It appears his son is no different.

  • I watched it live on TV and the laughter was there. Jesse is a phony and a hustler but he does have his moments, and this is definitely one of them. Just wish MLK was still around to put a stop to the racist idiots like Al Sharpton, Louis Farrakhan, and Jeremiah Wright who prey upon their own. MLK was a Republican, so was Lincoln. KABC Tim Conway Jr. "What the Hell did Jesse Jackson Say" Thurs @ 8pm.

  • Amazing!

    

  • Soooooo awesome!

  • One of my favorite SNL clips ever!

  • He read this as a tribute to Dr. Deuss's recent death. The only thing Jesse did in his life worth remembering. there I said it. RIP Seuss... and you Jim Henson!! :)))

  • @PapagenoJuan2  He had the Iranian held hostages freed...but then again that would be something actually worth remembering...

  • Jesse's new Presidential address. I love it! Run again Jesse!!!

  • is this snl?

  • this must be the first time ive ever seen jesse jackson be a person. i had always thought he was composed entirely of soap box and pulpit material, with a healthy dose of agenda.

    seems i was just a little bit wrong (but not by much).

  • NBC 5, that's inTexas.

  • I don't get what's funny about this...

  • @FunkyMunky2442 I think it has to do with how it (the joke) was delivered.

  • 1:13 I do not like them anywhiere! I DO NOT LIKE GREEN EGGS AND HAM!

  • I just watched this on the news! Lmao. So fkn funny.

  • That's hilarious.

  • The irony of all irony is you, Jessie, reading "Green Eggs and Ham."

    "How do you sleep Jessie

    asks Sam I am?"

    "I had a dream"

    Your brother King still sings

    "I have a dream"

  • This would make MLK proud........???

  • Do you remember on Saturday Night Live when Chevy Chase was the anchorman on Weekend Update? It was 1975. Do you remember how Chevy would sometimes begin to tell a story by saying the name of a person while a picture of the person was shown on the picture screen behind Chevy, and then without saying another word, Chevy Chase would switch to another story? It would only work as a joke with certain personalities.

    And Chevy Chase did do Jesse Jackson like that on that show

  • Very Holy Reverend Jackson, open your anointed mouth, if you are not busy producing another love child at the moment, and keep playing the race card until nobody on the planet listens anymore nor has any respect left for you...zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

  • that was funny...lol

  • "You let me be" - CLASSIC! Whatever you think of Rev. Jackson, and I happen to think he is one of the most important historical figures of American history, He HAS to be one of the greatest speakers in HISTORY! All of you Haters - leave the planet!

  • @sierra8186

    He's one of the most laughed at people in history.

  • TROLL

  • idiot

  • Simply a classic!

  • As much as I don't like him, this was absolutely awesome.

  • dumbasses

  • i dont understand this.. who's jesse jackson? ive heard of him. is he a comedien?

  • He is a Civil Rights Activist Leader, he was also a candidate for U.S. Presidency in the late 1980's.

  • i think he is a priest, he reads from the bible i think

  • are you kidding?

  • He is a reverend.

  • One of my favorite skits of all time. Jesse pulls it off perfectly.

  • Bloody Brilliant!

  • I love his accent when he reads!

  • I've always appreciated somebody who doesn't take themselves too seriously - especially so for someone in public office... Go Jesse!

  • These are the most intelligent words to ever cross his lips. He must have rehearsed quite a bit .

    LOL

  • This is the actual Jesse Jackson, on Weekend Update, which is an SNL sketch, I believe this was in 2000 or somewhere around there commemorating Dr. Seuss in some way

  • Haha wonderful

  • this is more moving than "i have a dream"

    *wipes tear*

    jk

  • fucking. genius.

  • AMEN BROTHER!

  • Sorry but this is frigin hilarious!

  • You are hurt. No one would post such disturbing comments unless they are hurt. Something is bothering you. You need to find someone you can talk to.

  • you just can't handle the truth, he is a shakedown artist, nothing more and pumping out children with lovers....he should be on Maury

  • Well at least he acknowledged his love child, unlike your favorite conservative Strom Thurmond. While advocating segregation, he was practicing miscegenation!!!!

  • LOL

  • One of his more thought out speeches......

  • Uhhh... This has everything to do with anything. But maybe you're asking what it has to do with the 2000 Bash. That I do not know. I do know that Green Eggs and Ham have everything to do with anything.

  • Let me guess, you're culturally ignorant, right? It has everything to do w/ Jesse Jackson's speaking approach and style. This was 1 of the most inspired skits on SNL history. It's like listening to Jesse do a campaign speech with his pulpit style. Having grown up watching him on TV news in Chicagoland since the late 60s, I caught the connection right away, as did most who will never forget this most memorable SNL moment.

  • I agree, green eggs and ham shows how people have become xenophobic and how we do not like to interact with people or objects that we find are unusual, where they are in fact fine, and they simply look different. haha.

  • I do not understand your question. By the way, end your questions with a question mark. What is "this"?

  • If you mean the video, as in the question being 'What does green eggs and ham have to do with the clip?', The answer would be the following;

    In commemoration of the death of famed children's writer Dr. Seuss, SNL invited the reverend Jessie Jackson to read Green Eggs and Ham on the Weekend Update segment of the show.

  • Awesome. I love this clip.

  • A true SNL highpoint.

  • Anyone ever notice that Jesse and Christopher Walken have the same hatred of punctuation

  • Hey,

    I don't remember any laughter in the audience after the 'I read from Sam I am' - this was in honor of Dr. Seuss's death... it was very seriously done, Kevin Nealon had a tear in his eye.....

    I seem to be the only person that vividly remembers this episode....

    and the TREMENDOUSLY respectful reading of his most famous work....

    In Memorium of Theodore Geisel... aka Dr. Seuss!

  • Wow...

    had no idea.

    Thanks!

  • you're a moron

  • Wow, that's an intelligent response to a moving video and an experienced viewpoint....

  • Comment removed

  • You remember incorrectly.

    I saw it when it originally aired too. There was plenty of laughter in the audience.

  • @unclejohn607 Enlightenment Ritual of Rev. Jesse Jackson a 33rd Degree Freemason shown that the 33rd degree secret is Tesla Earthquake No. 333 and was initiated with a predicted seismic event appearing divine at the time to an “idiot of the 33rd degree” -Mark Twain (Freemason)

  • @unclejohn607 Yeah, I don't think you're remembering this correctly. "Saturday Night Live" is a sketch comedy show.

  • @unclejohn607

    They're constantly having serious moments on SNL.

  • unclejohn607 You are, to put it bluntly, just plain wrong. I remember watching this skit quite vividly, and there was laughter. It was funny, and it was meant to be funny. Please post a version with no laughter (it doesn't exist).

    Which is more likely, that everyone else remembers this wrong, and that all the original clips with no laughter have been mysteriously destroyed, or that you are the one with the faulty memory of this? 

  • @smwas I remember watching this the night it aired. Yes, you are right, there was laughter. And there was a bunch of it coming from me as well.

  • @unclejohn607 i think you are the only person who vividly remembers this skit without laughter.

  • Too bad they didn't show Kevin Nealon's reaction while they broadcast this -- he must have been howling with the audience and everyone watching at home. Who would have thought it -- Jackson reading Seuss? Absolutely, positively one of the funniest moments in SNL's long run.
