Jesse Jackson has added former Chicago Democrat

Congressman Mel to Rainbow/PUSH Coalition's payroll.

Reynolds was among the 176 criminals excused

in President Clinton's last-minute forgiveness spree.

Reynolds received a commutation of his six-and-a-half-year

federal sentence for 15 convictions of wire fraud, bank fraud,

and lies to the Federal Election Commission. He is more notorious, however, for concurrently serving

five years for sleeping with an underage campaign volunteer.
