World-renowned linguist and highly respected authority on racism Jesse Jackson confirms that birther language is “code word” that “calls upon ancient racial fears”
And all this time I thought it was a simple request to see an original birth certificate signed by the attending physician.
(POLITICO) — Rev. Jesse Jackson told POLITICO today that the birther movement is part of a larger pattern of rollbacks against civil rights and an attack on the legitimacy of the nation’s first African-American president — reserving special ire for developer Donald Trump and his renewed interest in the conspiracy theory.
“Any discussion of his birthplace is a code word,” said Jackson. “It calls upon ancient racial fears.”
“Trump has trumpeted this cause. For him to go down this low is a bit surprising,” Jackson said, making explicit what many black leaders have suggested. “He is now tapping into code-word fears that go far beyond a rational discourse.”
Jackson also pointed to a broader pattern of hostility towards civil rights — pointing to a number of events, including the battle over public sector unions, a transportation policy that he says disadvantages poor minority city dwellers, and a renewed interest in policies like voter ID.
“I’m saying there’s a pattern here. It’s not just name calling of Barack. We’ll win that battle,” said Jackson ‘There is a retreat — a pronounced, documented retreat on civil rights enforcement.”
“This is the most personal attacks on any president ever,” said Jackson, who pursued the Democratic nomination in 1984 and 1988 — but says the political climate has changed. “Whose personal religion has ever been challenged before? That has strong racial overtones.”

How do you say that in ‘Ebonics’?
Is Jesse in his prison uniform?
One can only wish.
Love the smug look on the racist POS.
““This is the most personal attacks on any president ever,” said Jackson,”
Are you f**king kidding me? What f**king rock were you under during the GW Bush years and the across the board Bush Derangement Syndrome displayed by every broadcast news station and every Demoncrat in this country? This is so appallingly stupid, I must call into question Jesse’s sanity.
can’t wait til the campaigning really gets in full swing.bet the race card is pulled daily
And “Jesse Jackson” is code for “poverty pimp”.
In Gibberish, it means “race baiter”.
*yawn*
Jesse again proves that there is nothing left of the horse to beat.
Next!
“It calls upon ancient racial fears.” You Bet Jessie because that dumb ass in the White House has screwed up America almost beyond repair. If this is the best your “race” can do, you better stick to sports.
*sigh*
Jessie Jackson is so paranoid. If he went to a football game, and saw the players in a huddle – he`d be convinced they were talking about him.
‘Eat shit’ is code for STFU.
Inbred
Bla bla bla Jackson………same ol same ol……..bastard has got to shut up someday …….right?………right?…………..Wrong! what the hell was I thinking…..
In every government job, local, state, federal, civilian or military, when applying , it is a requirement to show many pieces of ID. This procedure is required by law. No exceptions. Barak-Hussein-Barry-Sotero-Obama has openly defied normal operating procedure which EVERY law abiding citizen has to submit to.
Just for the record, I try not to judge anyone, lest I be judged, BUT, I sincerely doubt that the reverend Jesse will not been anywhere near the heavenly kingdom. I even have a feeling that at the last day many will be looking for this SOB for leading them down the path of doom. He is no doubt one of the vilest creatures to ever crawl out from under a rock.
Here’s hoping history harshly judges and gratefully forgets this insignificant blowhard.
Hey Jesse, your honey Crystal Mangum needs bail money.
With every day, my certainty grows that Jailable Jesse got his theology degree in the mail for a small fee with no study involved.
When is Jessie going to apologize to the Duke Lacrosse players about his racist vitriol?
I received my theology degree online. It was free. I should be addressed as the Rev. Dr. Two Dots.
“Any discussion of his birthplace is a code word,” said Jackson. “It calls upon ancient racial fears.””
Okay. What if he was born in Canada? His father was still British. Nice try, Jesse.
jesse the race baiter always trying to stir something up so he and al sharpton can do a shakedown, you know that how how a lazy ass dope head survives when he ain’t got no strange stuff to bed up with.
Gee!
I thought that “birther language” was code for, “Jessie Jackson is a stupid motherphucking asshole.”
Or maybe it’s code for, “barack HUSSEIN obama is a communist SOB, who is trying his best to destroy the American economy, who is probably a Muslim, who hates America, and has a pet goat in the basement.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“… calls upon “ancient” racial fears”
Yeah!
I think I read somewhere that Cro Magnon man really; really hated the Neanderthals.
Because they, (the Thals), were too hairy; or something. And the Neanderthals kept asking to see the chief Cro Mag’s birth certificate.
There is something wrong with this man’s head. Does anyone see a problem with the shape of his skull? Maybe the result of some ancient head banding ritual practiced by his parents at birth? JJ’s head is in a cranial class all its own.
Wow he should get a job as a code breaker !
Hay jackson can you break this one !
STFU….
Rule of thumb: if you can afford a cell phone, you can afford a photo ID.
How is the sexual harassment case going against his “down low” buddy?
Poor man is desperate for attention
“First African American President”
Soooo …. white mom + black dad = African American Baby
Hmm, does that formula happen every single time, or is it something to do with the newborn baby’s apparent shade? Is there some sort of official “shade chart” in the delivery rooms in Hawaii or Kenya or wherever that the doctors hold these screaming little tykes up against before finally handing them over to their delighted and exhausted moms? But then wouldn’t race be more or less influenced by delivery room light levels?
I wonder if these twisted new light-challenged lightbulbs we’ve had forced down our throats by the greentards are an effort to compensate for abortion race statistical inequalities. Very clever. Oh well, when the lights finally go for western civilization I guess we’ll all be black.
didn’t these assholes originally say that Obama wasn’t actually black because his father was not of American slave heritage?
“Whose personal religion has ever been challenged before? That has strong racial overtones.”
Because, …because…., because, ….wait for it! ……Because islam is a race.
WHO WOKE JESSE UP. LET THE DOG SLEEP.
“Whose personal religion has ever been challenged before? That has strong racial overtones.”
George W. Bush got attacked for his profession of his religious beliefs ALL THE TIME.
Oh yes Al..because everyone knows that only negroes don’t have birth certificates../sarc
Race baiting media whore!!
Jesse Jackson is pathetic. And I care what color is skin is . . . he would be pathetic, no matter the color of his skin.
What is “I wanna cut his nuts off” code for?
What’s 15 inches long and hangs in front of an a**hole?
Jesse Jackson’s tie
“I said over a year ago that this was going to be, this presidential race, Lawrence, was going to be the ugliest, the nastiest, the most divisive, and the most racist in the history of this Republic,” PBS host Tavis Smiley said on MSNBC.

Of course it will, Tavis Smiley. People like you and Jessie Jackson simply wouldn’t have it any other way and will do everything possible to make it so…
JJ’s time is up. If, just IF, the media would ignore anything he vomits out, JJ would fade away into the sunset….sweet!
Thug and extortionist that should be prosecuted under RICO statutes
HOW TO MAKE AN UGLY STICK:
Rub any stick on Jesse Jackson’s face. Instant ugly stick.
Buy one ugly stick, get a RACE CARD FREE!
He’s like a human halibut…his eyes are moving wider and wider apart.. Jesse, you are so fucking creepy looking…ishh….
What an ugly sucker this dog is… in fact, with all due respect to bulldogs, Jackson looks like he might be one of their offspring – and that’s all I have to say about that.
Now all the real dirty, slimy racists of dark skin are being called out to try to step up the fear and steer people away from the documents of Barrie Soetoro … hahahaha…. they think we’re afraid of them … personally, I think it’s time we threw down about the racism… the hell with these accusing, guilt mongers… I’ve had enough of them… they are stupid and they are evil, and its time we just said “you guys need to go back to the third grade and take up where you left off, so you can associate with polite society.
The hell with these racists… they have their nerve calling themselves reverend and being racists … accusing others …. they are just trying to scare people into backing off, that snarl on Jesse ‘scumbag’ Jackson’s face says it all …. ugly POS.
Inside and out.
i have seen enough of these africans ship them all back
They would defend the devil if he was black…this reverse racism is getting so old..and pulling out the “racist card” anytime anyone says anything about their “goldenboy” makes me want to puke. Sickening. Thank God that the great people of this country are seeing through all this garbage. Jesse Jackson and all of his ilk are dinosaurs (sorry, no offense intended to dinosaurs) and they are watching the comet comin’ roarin’ in…this should be good.
“i have seen enough of these africans ship them all back”
To Greenville, South Carolina? What good will that do? Jackson can get on a plane and bother us again anywhere in the US.

@lonestar
Hahaa…I was thinking the same thing.
Seperated at birth…….Jesse Jackson and the deformed brother from the movie The Goonies. lmao.
What’s wrong with his head?
“Whose personal religion has ever been challenged before? That has strong racial overtones.”
I wonder if Jackson has ever heard of Mitt Romney or John F. Kennedy?
What a Jack ASS!
Or Richard Nixon.
All were challenged on the basis of their religion. And all were white….
