For general discussion and debate. Possible talking point: Sharpton blasts Obama for "[grandstanding] in front of white people":
Barack Obama made a call for nonviolence in the aftermath of the Sean Bell verdict - infuriating the Rev. Al Sharpton, who accused the presidential candidate of trying to "grandstand in front of white people," sources told The Post. During what a source described as a "heated" phone call yesterday, Sharpton told Obama he was disappointed with the Illinois senator's words on Friday, when Obama said "resorting to violence to express displeasure" was "completely unacceptable and counterproductive."
Is Obama's campaign beginning to dissemble? Are we witnessing one of the biggest political collapses in years? Or, will media save Obama from himself long enough to capture the nomination?
