I always wonder how he gets income. He doesn't have a profession or a radio show.

He's on TV nearly every day. He gets paid for those appearances.

I think he does have a radio show, but it's a local New York one. I don't believe he's on satellite radio.

He does have a radio show.

Besides, why does it matter? Should he worry about how you make your living?

He specializes in being black. Markets himself as really black. Then talks alot and gets people fired up - about being black, and then is able to direct attention to himself, for being black.

Shakin' down whitey and donations from blacks and liberals.

Racism is the best thing to ever happen to Al Sharpton.

Yup. He's a rabble-rouser and professional activist and he'll keep doing it as long as people pay attention to him. It's not a bad living, he gets to send his kids to private schools.

Rev. Sharpton serves an incredibly important purpose in our society: fighting for equal rights for black people. Frankly, this is far more important than the continuing existence of the Republican party.

Therefore, his appearances, lectures, and any other activities that he participates in are worth a great deal of value.
