He was referring to the healthcare reform bill Democrats voted for earlier this year (and are conveniently not mentioning in any of their reelection advertisements….hmmmmm)

The Rev. Jesse Jackson on Wednesday night criticized Rep. Artur Davis (D-Ala.) for voting against the Democrats’ signature healthcare bill.
“We even have blacks voting against the healthcare bill from Alabama,” Jackson said at a reception Wednesday night. “You can’t vote against healthcare and call yourself a black man.”
The remark stirred a murmur at the reception, held by the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) Foundation as part of a series of events revolving around the 25th anniversary of Jackson’s run for president. Several CBC members were in attendance, including Chairwoman Barbara Lee (D-Calif.), who’d introduced Jackson.
Dems run away from health care

At least five of the 34 House Democrats who voted against their party’s health care reform bill are highlighting their “no” votes in ads back home. By contrast, party officials in Washington can’t identify a single House member who’s running an ad boasting of a “yes” vote — despite the fact that 219 House Democrats voted in favor of final passage in March.

Do you really have to ask? He’s an idiot.
It is interesting how Blacks want other Blacks to be subservient slaves and follow the leaders.
sounds like tribalism to me and he thinks he’s the chief
Jackson and Sharpton have used that sort of strategy on the blacks for decades and guess what? Sadly, it works!
Jesse Jackson is a corrupt, incompetent thug.
The last gasp of and old race baiter who desperately wants to become relevant again… Guess hanging onto MLK’s coattails could only get him so far.
A typical modern day racist!
You can vote against health care and still be a man.
