Jesse Jackson Retires

Dear Neighbors:

John Mercurio of the Washington Times reports today that Jesse Jackson will not seek reelection as one of the District's two "shadow" senators. In a line I wish I wrote, Mercurio says, "The Rev. Jesse Jackson, a nationally know preacher with no church, will soon become a politician with no office."

I'm preparing a "context" article for publication and am requesting your help answering two (slightly loaded) questions.

These are essay questions. Evidence counts. No # 2 pencil necessary.

Happy 4th of July,

Jeffrey Itell
