Pigglet, you and I are close to each other in this.
The only thing you wrote that I think differently about is linking Sharpton's civil rights persona to inclusiveness. In fact, I don't know that I'd even characterize his work as civil rights work, although he rather loudly claims to be operating under that auspice. He's more of a...factional promoter. His interest is in the advancement of one group, good bad, or indifferent to other groups.
I guess should say that personally, I find his comment to be bullheaded and ill-advised, though supportable and consistent with his other stated positions. I wouldn't have said it in so many words, but I'm not surprised he did.
