Jackson is merely parroting the same tired tripe he has been spewing since becoming embedded in the civil rights industry, having sold out to the socialists in the Democratic Party in the 1980s. The Democrats abrogated his excellent original intent in founding the Rainbow Coalition, replacing it with his commitment to preaching welfare-statism in exchange for a promise of a taste of national power and prestige through elective or appointive office. A taste which has since been consistently denied him.
Jackson started out instilling responsibility and work ethic in young poor urban blacks. But the Democrats destroyed his message, his mantra to them -- "I am somebody!" and the boot-strap mentality he tried to instill in them -- because it conflicted with the party's own socialist state view of enslaving the blacks and the poor to their corrupt machine that was built on the promise of "free money" if the economic dregs of the socioeconomic system would just keep voting for them.
Here we are, 50 years after "The Great Society" and we have more poor than ever, more people crying for handouts instead of a hand up, more people demanding they be given something for nothing, instead of working themselves out of poverty through a realization that they, too, can share in the American dream -- the very message Jackson originally preached -- if they will just work at it, educate themselves, take initiative and responsibility. The obscenity and corruption of enslaving a people group to a message and a money mill is far greater than any imagined "corporatism" that supposedly taints the conservative side of the political spectrum, but it is largely ignored by a liberal media which is on a similar leash tying it to the socialist message.
So it isn't surprising Jackson would once again forget who he once was and spew hate and venom at someone's personal experience in the South and try to call it "racism." He's become a trained monkey. He performs, he gets his reward -- money, 15 minutes of fame, and a pat on the head from Master Democrat. He's a slave, every bit as much as his great-grandfather was, and he doesn't appear to know it. It's disgusting.
