Jesse Jackson is not anti-Semitic, but in politics, you always get in trouble when you try to be cute.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I have very mixed feelings about Jesse Jackson. He's very good about labor, and human and civil rights issues, but not so good on cultural issues.
Jesse Jackson is a master of the old expression that it doesn't matter what someone says about you as long as they spell your name right.
We've never been anti-Semitic.
One thing of the many things that I know about Jesse Jackson, he is persistent.
You know, Jesse Jackson is just trying to stir up a hornet's nest.
I guess it is ironical that I have a chance to say to Jesse Jackson, 'You need to be mature. You need to be positive. You need to be bigger than the folks who are trying to tear you down.'
Jesse Jackson, when I met him, he had an innocence about him which is still very much a part of him today.
Those who closely watched the campaign should not be surprised by Obama's hostility toward Israel, given his relations with pro-Palestinian, virulent critics of Israel and his voluntary membership in Reverend Wright's decidedly anti-Semitic church. Furthermore, his campaign website featured anti-Semitic posts.
I find Jesse Jackson to be religiously, progressively old fashioned.
As for me, even though I have been accused of anti-Semitism countless times, no one has ever heard me make anti-Semitic statements or engage in anti-Semitic behavior.
