  • Simply the best speech of that convention and Mr Sharpton finest moment.

  • A great barn-burner of a speech. I remember hearing it live, and it was a very inspiring moment during those dark days of the early Bush years.

  • "...and in the speech he axed certain questions." Who can tolerate this? Of a presidential candidate? He never stood a ghost of a chance. Thank goodness for that wall of separation between church and state. *eyeroll* He should have never gotten even this close. A small shame on America.

  • Reverend? Worthy of reverence? Get fuckin real. This man built his career lying to children about eternal punishments in "hell" and rewards in heaven. That's all obvious bullshit. It's not baseless ad hominem to suggest his inadequacy as a figure to put on the television in front of impressionable morons. When did this society become so ass backward that his body of work should carry any weight and earn him this privilege? Get him out of there. fast.

  • Love Al sharpton should've been president

  • Leave it to the Dumbocrats to give a primetime speaking slot to a race-baiting bigot who was behind the Tawana Brawley Hoax, the Massacre At Freddy's Fashion Mart, defamed numerous cops who defended themselves against ghetto miscreants, attacked the Duke Lacrosse players, and defended the Jenna 6.

    Sharpton is an embarassment and has no business in the American political process. There is no excuse for welcoming a political and racial extremist who threatens others with violence.

  • A monument to oratory! Beautiful!

  • The greatest moment during that convention. Love him.

  • Most people remember then soon-to-be Senator Obama's speech on that night, but Rev. Al delivered a SOLID home run! Excellent and moving speech!

  • Sharpton knocked the ball out of the park on this one.

  • I thought this was an excellent speech. Sharpton has really made up for the Tawana Brawley debacle these past few years

  • @FreedomUSA1 I am a Socialist, Black Male Philosophy Major (I will thank you to not crack on the spelling of Genious as, well, ya know. The result of typing 25 words per minute with 30 errors) and I love this speech! I have never been more proud.
