Fat Albert has raised over $592,000 with $400,000 on hand. He is giving new meaning to running scared because he clearly is terrified. She is burning money at a fairly good clip and that

  and one notch below that of blackface minstrelsy. It's enough to make Mr. Harold a black kingmaker and possibly the father of the first black President of the United States. Stopping Tennessee's crown prince of deception should be the first priority of black progressives everywhere. However, with his engagement to Snow White on tap, he

  teenage R. Kelly. A real black man or woman would know and understand that and conduct themselves accordingly. His two black colleagues on the court certainly did. Unfortunately, Harold Melton is not a real black man. He's nothing more than a Clarence Thomas clone and a colored confederate faking the funk and fighting on the wrong side.
