Farrakhan is a racist idiot. PERIOD. Anybody that supports him probably thinks the same way.
Good Grief how old is he now.? He still looks young and healthy.
When he for any reason has to retire who will take up the job he has anointed himself for.?
Interesting man that Farrakhan, he kind of reminds me of an old time union boss that was ruthless and held on to his followers by the skin of his teeth with threats and fear.
When he had a meeting in Boston a few years ago his protectors carried semiautomatics and the police closed their eyes. He blew into town like a War Lord held a huge meeting with his armed guards at the door to keep out woman and non blacks. Such a buzz went up, all papers and local TV had to tread lightly.
Seems that he has to pop up every few years to remind us that Hate is alive and well. He really fears the absorbsion of the blacks into the world, intermarriage between blacks and whites, Asians and Latinos, the growing Christian movement of the blacks in the North must keep him awake at night.
The South is a tough nut to crack, about the only followers he can get there is to recruit in prisons and when his members are released, the family's are not so willing to embrace a Muslim into their Christian family.
Just watched the Factor on FOX, what a scandal that one is for the Catholic Church, a top Catholic Priest taking to the stage to support Farrakhan. How bazaar can life get.?
BTW, I believe he has body guards to protect himself from those in his organization from those that wish to move up into his position, his money and power.
Farrakhan is slipping, his target for enrichment is becoming very well educated, and finding that his ideas are self centered, about the only people that listen to him today are the men who are thugs, and yes I put the Rev. Wright and his ilk that follow these civil rights activities who put a Rev. in front of there name if they have been ordained or not.
Sorry Thor, I am trying to put thoughts on Farrakhan into an orderly pile, but, unfortunately there is always that joker in the deck.
