I was just informed that Al Sharpton had some connection to James Brown

He was his road manager for some years, or something like that. If this is true, would that make him the funkiest president we've ever had?

Because this makes me want to vote for him so bad.

Why not skip the middleman and just vote for James Brown? You can write him in.

They recorded a single together in 1980 or so: "God Has Smiled On Me."

Isn't James Brown (seriously) already the Undersecretary of Funk or something? Didn't we have a thread about this?

They've been close friends since the early 70s. Great story in Rolling Stone about the two of them meeting with Reagan.
