Black democractic althlete-politicians
Have any star black athletes won major elective office as democrats? I am thinking
of Lynn Swann running for governor in Penna., JT Watts as a rep. from OK. Charles
Barkley suggesting a few years ago that he would run for gov. of Alabama.
The white athletes have not done well either. Macmillan was a rep. from Maryland &
we all know Bill Bradley. On the other side, we have coach Tom Osborne, Jim Bunning,
... and even in an earlier time Vinegar Bend Mizell. Steve Largent was pretty right
wing. Oh yes, Gerald Ford was an all american football player.
