More quotes by Jesse Jackson
I preach nonviolence because it's the better alternative.
Jesse Jackson
Conservatives and liberals can find common ground.
Jesse Jackson
It is a historical error for those who were not there to just refer to August 28th as 'I Have a Dream' speech day. That is a real disservice to those who were there. It was a sad day. It was not a celebration environment.
Jesse Jackson
There was a direct jobs program from the Rooselvelt administration in the 1930s. The Justice Department has set up a task force to investigate the banks and the mortgage crisis but that's a little too late. Whenever they report they will report the obvious. It will be too late to impact the people who need the help the most.
Jesse Jackson
I know how to run a nationally paced campaign.
Jesse Jackson
You must never stop dreaming. Face reality, yes. But don't stop with the way things are dream of things as they ought to be. Dream of peace. Peace is rational and reasonable. War is irrational in this age and unwinnable.
Jesse Jackson
Race designation is a political designation.
Jesse Jackson
Our premise is that inclusion leads to growth. So for those who are locked out, they lose development, and those who are in power lose market and growth.
Jesse Jackson
Iraq will drive American agenda for a long time because Iraq policy has so damaged America in the Middle East region, left us isolated. We are there now by brute strength, we are not there because we are desired.
Jesse Jackson
The laws are stacked for the wealthy.
Jesse Jackson
The interest right now is taking resources back to the state and allowing the minority to have tyranny over the minority. It's an ideological power grab. It's like in this Congressional rebellion they are willing to sink the ship to destroy the captain.
Jesse Jackson
There have been more people disenfranchised in Washington than there have been in Kuwait.
Jesse Jackson
When blacks are unemployed, they are considered lazy and apathetic. When whites are unemployed, it's considered a depression.
Jesse Jackson
The charges that I am anti-Semitic are simply erroneous, felonious, and unceremonious. In fact, when I need a doctor, I always look for one with a Jewish name.
Jesse Jackson
Inclusion is not a matter of political correctness. It is the key to growth.
Jesse Jackson
Music of all arts should be expansive and inclusive.
Jesse Jackson
What we have to be judged by is the work we try to do. It's public service, not perfect service.
Jesse Jackson
[Donald Trump] says if he wins, he`ll accept the outcome. If he lose, he will not accept the outcome. That is playing by two set of rules that is not very fair.
Jesse Jackson
Peace is the alternative to war, and nonviolence should be seen as the antidote to violence, not simply as its opposite. Nonviolence is more concerned with saving life than with saving face.
Jesse Jackson
[Donald Trump] can`t reach out and push off at the same time when he says - he says we want the ban on assault weapons, because they`re so very dangerous, and background checks on guns, given the level of violence in the country, he says he wants more guns to make us more secure.
