What really gets lost here is that in 2013 someone still needs to mention someone's race along with his accomplishments. it's not 1965 Dell, this happens all the time.

Please tell Jesse Sr. & Co.

Of course his kid is in jail and he's a baby daddy at 70. Far from accomplished.

Dell aka "Strawman king" my brother used to use the "He's doing it why can't I" defense. The only difference was he was 6 at the time. and you are not.
