  • This was really good interviewing. Cenk allowed Jesse to speak but challenged him to explain and justify his ideas and proposals answer potential criticisms. This is what fair and balanced should be like.

  • Fuk jesse jackson cuz it aint about race now

  • what a great argument....

  • Its all about one man getting a job. Obama continues the Reagan-Bush agenda only in Blackface with a kinder gentler approach.

  • Scandinavian countries score higher on practically all measures than America.

  • no suprise there

  • Legacy points are ridiculous. They only exist to ensure that rich people will donate money to these schools to allow their dumbass kids to go to college

  • hey jayar, jesse's mic is too hot, very annoying.

    as for jesse's past comment on obama, my take is this, jackson and others had been there when blacks were being murdered trying to vote. panic set in seeing obama's perceived concession toward racial discrimination. but as you know, the way to win elections in this era is to be centrist. bill clinton. bush ran on a phony centrist message, "the compassionate conservative".

    it was bitter sweet for jesse and many others, it always is.

  • Fuck Jackson! Micheal and Jesse fucking sellouts! Jesse said he wants to cut Obamas nuts off look it up hes a phony piece of shit and if I ever met him I'd beat the shit outta that fucking prick.

  • I think much of that comment had to do with jealousy on Jackon's part. He'd been seen as a major leader in the black community for a long time and yet suddenly Obama came along with a completely different message from Jackson and he'd already toppled him. In many ways Jackson saw his relevancy fading as Obama inched closer to becoming president.

  • Yeah, dude, why is there ever a need to defend some arbitrary group that you were BORN into?

    If someone tries to insult you because you are white you don't need to argue the MERITS of being white. You need to slap that notion down with knowledge that's far more significant than that.

  • man, is jesse hard to understand...he's got to take some diction lessons.

  • So would have a KKK grand dragon be elected to public office? Maybe even replace President Barack Hussein Obama? Come on man, the racist issue is over. Is Jesse Jackson 100 % right? No. What I'm saying is white people have been running this country since it's inception, and for the most part, we've done a terrible job. Let's try to accept some change. Live and let live.

  • Good video.

  • I'm white but I think the "reverse racism" claims are soooooooooo corny. If you go into any institution, specifically financial ones. you will get better treatment if you are white. Society is so racist that laws had to be created to prevent it, and it still occurs. This country even was founded on racism.

  • ddean :it's all about perspective;you're a second generation immigrant from Eastern Europe;you haven't participated in slavery or been part of any "power structure" that you know of ;you've gone to crappy inner city schools;you get a job as a firefighter;you need a promotion to take care of your family,so you break your ass studying for it.;you qualify and then .whoa...not enough minoriies passed.;.it gets thrown out;only upper class whites that wont ever get hurt by it support this crap.

  • People who don't understand affirmative action must have little familiarity with the south and midwest. They think every city is just as fair as theirs, and that just isn't the case. Many states in our union are still largely racist. America has a race problem...until we don't or whites become a minority, there should be some affirmative action.

  • andid:VOLUNTARY Affirmative Action:Any white person,including you,if it applies,can give up their job or opportunity for a minority;it's the ultimate opportunity for Liberals to Walk the Walk instead of just Talking the Talk. But you know Liberals;they'll give you the shirt off of SOMEONE ELSE'S back.,

  • @andid O yeah, America has a real race problem. Look at our current president, asshole

  • @FightinRebel14 O yeah, the race problems of everyone disappear when a black man becomes president

  • @andid No but its a good indication. Btw blacks are the real racists. Thats why black on white crime is 24X more frequent than vice versa but whenever a white on black crime occurs, the liberal media shrieks it from the rooftops.

  • Listen not all people are racist towards whites. And i kinda understand why people do that because so many (white) people racist towards us. I cant tell you how many white people where racist towards me. But I personally dont think if you dont agree with someone differt than your culture, your a racist. But you yourself said you are a racist so I consider you a racist, not other people who have there own opinion.

  • Actually, most black people I know (I'm black) don't actually complain about slavery and demand reparations, because that's just incredibly stupid. A lot of people just want the opportunity to prove themselves and don't want to be labeled because of the color of their skin, get it?

  • agreed

  • True, true. I hope you realize, however, that it's a perpetuated cycle, not because we're different races, but because we're STUPID humans, understand? The best thing to do is make yourself apathetic to the race issue, in my opinion.

    Had black people been the European explorers I'm sure we would have enslaved whites, too.

  • Jesse Jackson came out with some damm good ideas!

    god bless him!

  • Every caucasian should have the right to spit in a salad and force it down jackson's mouth.

  • lol so true.

  • you really need to sort out your sound quality dude, can't get half the shit he's saying,the man is (as far as i know) one of the most important african americans out there. invest in mics dude

  • yeah okee most of us did not expeirence slavery but in other parts of the world it still excists. And we blacks, latino's, asians and others still have to overcome racism. That is what we're fighting to overcome. And because your white you dont know how painfull is to be seen as something you are not.

    So stop talking about things you dont understand.

  • Kingofredloins is a stinky tomale dinner turd that burns when it comes out. He's a greasy pimple that hurts when you pinch it and watch the pus pour out. He's the kind of scum you might discover if you dug up your septic tank.

  • Are you fucking kidding me? Go kill yourself Rush Limbaugh. (or whatever racist you might be.)

  • Hi racist guilty whites!

  • Comment removed

  • Jesse Jackass Jackson the biggest racist America has ever seen

  • u nutz?

  • HammandClov :Let He Who Has never Typed in a Hurry Cast the First Stone;But it would be interesting how many class action suits demanding more fudgicle representation would arise from your scenario. Also,he's still a sleazy crook.

  • Elue Tnough.

  • Baya con Deose

  • Cicil rights movement needs a better representative than Jackson;he's corrupt;pure and simple.

  • Politics = corrupt. There is no one in politics who isn't corrupt to some extent. Thank goodness he isn't the leader of the Civil Rights movement and just the "Cicil" right movement. Popsicles, maybe? How dare they put frozen kool-aid and ice cream on us!

  • Cicil...lol

  • I had heard that black parents were a lot more discipline-oriented, but it seems odd that black kids can sneak away so often and fuck.

  • "I had heard that black parents were a lot more discipline-oriented"

    Why do you bother watching tyt you racist fuck, stick to limbaugh.

  • People still give a shit what that asshole Jesse Jackson has to say about ANYTHING?

    Well, at least Cenk didn't invite Al Sharpton on.

  • When guys like Obama tell the black community to wise up and tells black fathers to actually be there for their kids and stop being jackasses, race-baiting assholes like Jesse here say "I wanna cut his nuts off", rather than being grateful for the advice and saying "thank you. I'll take that into consideration."

    I mean, the black community has by far the highest out-of-wedlock birth rate in the country! How the hell does that happen? Why is no one preventing these kids from fucking? jeez

  • At least our sex scandles are hetrosexual. Jesse nailed the shit out of that little office whore.

  • Jesse Jackson is not the emperor of Black People!

    He said he was.

  • All of you guilty whites get your salads from jackson.

    HaHaHa!!!!

  • The reverend Jessie Jackson is a racism promoter.

  • Al Sharpton is worth mentioning.

  • People are tired of sharpton, he is nothing but an asshole.

  • Ok, sharpton is a racist asshole.

  • Donot- your played out kid. Read more and bring validity to your argument or be destined for failure. You lost all credibility the second you called me a racist. My people have been screwed by every white politician who steeped foot on our soil with promises of reparations for the land and lives destroyed, yet I harbor no ill feelings for anyone who calls themselves an American. I simply stated that this was a momentous event and that it is. I will not play your hate game for it has no winner.

  • Exactly, why do you think I mentioned him?

  • I know its youtube and you feel the need to be 10x harder then you would ever be irl but come on. The man had some interesting points and so did Cenk so there you go. Screaming racism is not helpful it is quite weak if you ask me. The fact is we have a black president and its very historic. I think it is amazing. Screaming that Jesse is a racist is another lame point. I personally would be hesitant of any race that hated my people for hundreds of years but this is the new America not 1968.

  • Yeah, it would have been historic too. I don't think anyone denies that.

  • I don't think the lamestream media would have reported a McCain victory as historic. The lamestream media would have been too busy whining about the US not electing a black man and calling everyone who did not vote for 0bama a racist. For the first time in history the lamestream media went all out to elect a president. The media died last year, they no longer have any credibility.

  • Who the fuck are you talking about? I haven't heard someone say that after the first month being elected.

    They only brought it up here to go back to the photo of Jesse Jackson crying. Get your head out of your ass.

  • I don't care about jackson's crocodile tears.

  • Just remember that we have a black president and its very historic. Don't shed any crocodile tears for McCain.

    Very historic.

  • donottake...shut the fuck up and pick up a few books on slavery and THEN may you see why its Historic. And dont even use that reverse race card, cause its SOOO played

  • You shut the fuck up, asshole. I don't give a shit about slavery. You libs do nothing but play the slavery card to drive a racist agenda. Every type of people can trace themselves to slavery. It is only the whiney blacks in the US that use slavery as a crutch for special treatment and privilege. More slavery has occured in the continent of Africa than any continent in the world. The sellers of slaves to the US were black Africans. We got ripped off! I want reparations!

  • Whiney blacks you say...haha thats funny because I dont know any. Theyt arent asking for America's sympathy, nor reparations, they simply want equal treatment as any decent human being. As far as slavery being used as a crutch...umm yeah I dont see that at all.

  • Perhaps you have your head up your ass and don't have a clue - that is evident when you think they don't want reparations. Their hands are out for every handout they can get. Their hands are also out for everything they can steal. You are also too dumb to know that tens of billions have been spent on programs for blacks. You are also too dumb to know about the racist programs for blacks such as affirmative action, set-asides, DBEs, quotas, etc.

  • well i'm black. i don't have my hand out. wow you are a hater. he won. get over it. country is better off with him. i understand that it was reagan that pushed for eic!!! if the country goes down the tube we will know and a republican will be elected. but if it continues to go the way it's going. people will start to say, "Oh Yeah!!! I remember the republicans!!! Weren't they the party that got poor white people to love rich white people, hate minorities, and gays?"

  • Messy Jesse

  • Get the marbles out of Jackson's mouth!

  • Rev Jesse Jackson is one of my big-time heroes. The Young Turks Rock!!

  • This guys washed up. He drums up fake contreversy to stay in the spotlight.

  • who cares what a racist murderer like jesse jackson thinks ? all he is now is an extortionist ....i don't know one person who likes him....why is this idiot interviewing him ? of course i couldn't listen to more than 15 seconds of this

  • Jesse Jackson is so full of shit. I once respected him but now he wants to act like Obama's victory is his own. Remember the whole "cut his nuts off" thing? How about the face you made in '04 when Barack brought the house down with his speech at the DNC? I think in a way Jesse is jealous that Obama can garner the passion that so few in human history have. To quote Eddie in the movie Barbershop "Maaaan, FUCK Jesse Jackson!"

  • I was actually hoping they would ask about the cut his nuts off thing... lol

  • those baboons and toad scums who are spewing hate just because these two people do not share their palsy pigmentation, let me offer you a mouthful of my spits

  • It shows me what kind of animal you are,I would not spit on my worst enemy.

  • ...only figuratively...

  • Do you seriously have nothing better to do than troll TYT videos?

  • Do you have nothing better to do than be a racist?

  • So true. Trolling TYT videos is the only thing donottake has in her pathetic life. Youtube comments are what this old fat loser wakes up to in the morning. She's too dumb for people to talk with in real life.

  • Somebody throw a pie in jackson's racist face, that would make my day.

  • Hey young turd, ask jackson for one of his salads! HaHaHa!!!

  • Its safe for the turd to eat one of jessies salads.Only whites get jessies secret sauce.

  • Everytime I hear about Jesse Jackson I think of Eddie Murphy, "I voted for Jesse Jackson! I voted for Jesse Jackson!....He fucking won?!"

  • Hagee,Parsley and Robertson beg for money.This bastard Jacskon demands money.Jackson belongs in jail for extortion.

  • Comment removed

  • Nigger Rage? dude ur sad....

  • the klan has blood on it's hands from the turn of the century ! sorry WhiteIGNITERS is a white civil rights movement FREE of a violent past present or future ! just confronts black on white racism sorry !

  • or young turks on white racism ect !

  • *yawn*

  • Fukk Jessie Jackson he is a coward, he aint been shyt since they killed Dr.King. He is a bitch, he came to Ellisville Mississippi & and destroyed the local park, demolished the stage that lil kids use for talent shows , took away the concrete picknick tables, but they rebuilt the B-Ball court Brand fukkin new shyt.

    Yes he is just a rasist, 'cause if that's how he shows us an example of Black Power, then he must hate us. Fukk him.

  • jesse jackson hates barack obama ! he PROBABLY thinks he is too white ! and is UPSET that barack obama dosen't put pressure on the blanks to GIFTWRAP and GIVE every black man and woman a house for reperations for SLAVERY ! in his WARPED mind he probably sees the devil in EVERY white person and is still on the LOOKOUT with his binoculars on his deck of his house looking for a WHITE person to SLIGHT a black person in any way shape or form and then blow his whistle SCREAMING WHITE DEVIL !

  • oops they can't they are dead ! mabey if they could dig themselves up THEN they could !

  • jesse jackson is a black racist who slanders white people so much and revs up his fanbase of black racists and stirs them into a FRENZY that they take to the streets and that is the REASON why black on white violence in america is 50 times higher than white on black violence ! im sure there are ALOT of white people who were sent to their graves prematurley that would like to PERSONALLY thank him !

  • how was the Klan meeting last night?

  • I like your account name.

    Seems pretty inflammatory to me.

    Look at the pot calling the kettle black.

  • It's not higher than white on white violence.

  • get over it white man.you have lost your identity.thats why you cry so much now day.

  • I really like both jesse jackson and cenk uygur.

  • What a hypocrate and a fraud. Jessie is pathetic. Only could listen to 50sec of this video

  • so in order to asses that he is a hypocrite, you don´t listen to him, makes perfect sense

  • JJ on TYT! What a great combo! This is a better interview than the one on RealNews - the interviewer there was star-struck, whereas Cenk is bringing out JJ with interesting history and important opinions of current events. His analysis of the foreclosure moratorium initiative is insightful - a foreclosed house drives down the value of neighborhood properties, lowers tax base, etc - everybody loses.

    Good job, everybody!

  • i'm so tired of seeing jesse jackson. he's a race baiter and panders to the disenfranchised to further his own political gain. he his far from the man who marched with MLK.

  • i agree mlk as the first black prez would have been awesome

  • give him a better microphone!

  • I wonder.

    Is he still paying the "Rainbow Coalitions" money to his former mistress who fathered his bastard child.

    This guy is yesterdays news.

    No, make that last decades news.

    He is a tired, pathetic, camera loving, piece of crap.

    Say goodnight Jesse.

  • al politicians are crooked. those who aren't don't stand a chance.

  • Fact: Did you know that Jessie Jackson's half brother was a member of a Chicago street gang called the Black P Stones. YouTube search Gangland (History Channel) Look for the link Gangland "Stone to the bone".

    Very interesting...................­....

    Peace.

  • And I had an ancestor who was hung as a horse thief. So what? "Facts" like this are nothing more than scurrilous noise, intended to demean Jackson's character.

  • Fact: that is just his brother and has nothing to do with him.

  • I had it with him when he moved to block the Nas Nigger album, but threatened Obamas balls on national television. He is a bigot, but his son, on the other hand...

  • who's more of a man, Jackson or Sharpton?

  • Jackson was standing next to King when he was assassinated. No brainer.

  • house ni....

  • a black and white debate on a Jackson vid what a surprise

    and both of the sides make crazy claims, sounds like the election campaign all over again

  • you best be trollin

    Sarah Palin? stop beating a dead horse

  • He's just being a douche. It's how he rolls.

  • wont you ever shut the fuck up....

  • If people can call John Hagee, Pat Robertson and Rod Parsley "Reverend" why not Jesse?

    What Jesse said is interesting, it is amazing when you think about it how many votes he got back in 1984 and 1988 having less qualifications than either Obama or Palin.

  • If people can call John Hagee, Pat Robertson and Rod Parsley "Reverend" why not Jesse? The first three beg.Jackson demands!! Thats extortion!! Jackson belongs in jail.........

  • God damn I hate that man.

  • he use to be legit but nowdays thats a fucking tom.his nuts has already been cut off.that is black americas main enemy right there.

  • i'm a black man and i feel that when jesse jackson and the king family included gays in their civil rights rainbow coalition,that did it for me.i hate that mfkr and kings children are a disgrace.

  • Um...makes sense to me that Jackson included gays in his civil rights rainbow coalition, as you call it, fenderbass.

    Obviously.....homophobia comes in all the colours of the rainbow...including yours.

  • How about go fuck yourself.That comes in many languages too.

  • Yes sure, they're disgraceful because they chose not to discriminate against a group of people.

    Don't say "I'm a black man" like you're suggesting that homphobia is the stance of the true black man. It's a shame that so many people in the black community still have these stupid bigoted views towards gay people, but it by no means equates to homophobia being a black perspective. It's a bigots perspective, which is as far from the dream of equality as you can get.

    I'm a black man.

  • Agreed. fenderbass can't come up with anything to back up his (must be a guy because women LOVE gay guys because they can actually trust them) stance, so he'll say fuck off. You just can't get through to people like that.

    Straight black man.

  • I'm not black nor do I care for Jesse Jackson, but let's be real.... without the Jesse Jacksons fighting for civil rights in the past decades, there would be no black president named Barack Obama.

  • True, but isn't it a shame that jackson and al sharpton used to fight for civil rights, but now they are reduced to ambulance chasers and fox news pawns. Now the civil rights movement is fought by industrious young people.

  • 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

  • @Angellicationify I do not think IG Farben and Krupp considered Der Fuehrer a socialist; that is a right wing myth to distance themselves from fascism. Not that the right wing has any problems with fascism but they just don't want to be associated with it.

    As for Jesse Jackson: he got old a long time ago. Question: how loyal was he even to Dr. Martin Luther King?

  • & wasted your vote.

  • I voted for Nader!

    I hate everyone!!!

  • Yeah, hating everyone makes you a good American...

  • your right i do hate everyone one who violates the constitution and breaks every campain promise they make. NADER is the best statesman that this country has. RON PAUL is a good one to. these idots who removed my comment are so brain washed by the media and political establishment that they want to spam and take away my comment by hideing it. they probably hate the 1st admendment when it doesn't work in thier favor. btw i dont hate everyone i just hate anyone who voilates the constitution.

  • I'm not American and never actually voted for nader, it's just a joke an American told me once.

    Or maybe he was mexican?

    Well he certainly had a firey latino temper.

    But he insisted he was dutch/irish.

    Which is strange because I'm dutch/irish.

    Mostly.

  • Jesse always looks like somebody shit in his easter basket.

    Smile you f**ker!

  • hes such an emotional guy

  • jessie was a badass back in the day but somewhere along the line he lost it, his obama remark was not the first he has made against a fellow black leader, ask mumia abu jamal what jessie called him off the mike, a faker is what he is, with his crocodile tears, made me wanna puke, you want a real black politician, give me the great Craig Watkins! nuff said!

  • cut obamas balls off? i can do one better. dose anyone remember when jesse jackson called a certain part of new york hymie town.

  • cut obamas nuts off lol

  • Would have been good if there were subtitles in this video

  • Big time.

  • THIS!!!

  • im not pointing out one person, im talking bout everybody

  • You call it beefin,Ilike to think of it as a friendly little chat.

  • y all ya beefin over the net, it s pointless, wat bout u take this bitchin in private, or maybe you watched the video and dont make pointless bitchin

  • you seem nep conversatives to seem ahve your mouths all in ronald reagan nuts, always comparing him to obama, there no comparsion white boy,,reagan did do shit for this country but made ur rich white father richer, ...

  • Their you go with nuts again!! You just can't keep your mind off nuts.I could give a shit about Reagan you stupid asshole.What the hell are you talking about?

  • Will somebody tell me what the idiot TACOBIVOID means by the following -nep,tomm and suciing.I need help decoding this morons gibberish.

  • wwdonalsqxx go back to watching fox news and sucking ronald reagan dick,,jesse is 1,000 times the man ronald is...you sean hannity nut sucker

  • AH whats the matter is jessie a hero of yours? you're more than likely a piece of worthless criminal shit like him.

  • You seem to have your mind on dicks and nuts.Are you some kind of angry homo?

  • This is awesome!!!

  • Good stuff but you fumbled the sound, Turks.

  • HAHA! remember when Jesse the racist got caught on mic saying he wanted to cut off Obamba's nuts? then later he said his remark was taken "out of context". HAHAHA!!! what a fukkin joke. 2 racists wearing headphones drooling over each other.

  • The so called reverend used to brag about spitting in whiteys food.Extortion is his favorite hobby.

  • When he said he wanted to cut his nuts didnt also use the word nigger ? Isnt he the guy that critized black people like rappers for using it ?

  • If racism no longer existed the rev. would have to find another hobby.

  • I know, he's just positioning himself. That goes for Sharpton as well. Its sad that people just buy into their bullshit.

  • Like the old saying goes.Theres a sucker born every minute.The thing that makes me sick is watching stupid whites kiss con man Jacksons ass.

  • Some white folks have this fascination to black people, you know the kind of people that claim not to see race. Its almost like the way Steve Carell plays Micheal in the office.

  • lol Cenk is racist? y do u say thaT?

  • Where was this interview happening Cenk!

    Yeah! Always great job!

  • what is this place? howcome they are not in their studio?

  • I kicked them out but there back there now
