Jesse Jackson: LeBron No 'Runaway Slave'

Jesee Jackson is never one to shy away from an issue.  Jesse Jackson recently defended James against a harsh statement by Cleveland Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert by saying that Gilbert thinks LeBron is a “runaway slave.” "He speaks as an owner of LeBron and not the owner of the Cleveland Cavaliers," James said in a statement. "His feelings of betrayal personify a slave master mentality. He sees LeBron as a runaway slave. This is an owner employee relationship—between business partners—and LeBron honored his contract."

I don't know that I would go as far as Mr. Jackson but I wrote the other day about how I thought Mr. Gilbert should just Get A Life.  I bet Jesse Jackson would agree with that.
