The liberal civil rights activist and MSNBC host has met with a flurry of possible 2020 contenders in recent weeks, including Sens. Kamala Harris (D., Calif.), Cory Booker (D., N.J.), and Kirsten Gillibrand (D., N.Y.), and he's planning to speak soon with former Rep. Beto O'Rourke (D., Texas), the Atlantic reported.
Sharpton has become a mainstream figure in the Democratic Party, in sharp contrast to his early days as a fiery, jumpsuit-wearing racial antagonist, known for his invective against Jews and thepolice.
Gillibrand will speak at a Martin Luther King, Jr. Day celebration put on by the National Action Network, a non-profit organization founded by Sharpton, next Monday. Former Vice President Joe Biden and former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg will join Sharpton in Washington for a NAN event that same day.
Sharpton said he is open to supporting Biden and Bloomberg, who have rankled some progressives due to their respective support for a 1990s crime bill blamed for high incarceration rates of African Americans and the "stop-and-frisk" policy in New York City.

Oh, please!😕
The DNC realizes that they didn't get much of the 'black' vote in '16 (What does the old white b**** going to do for me?), so they are preempting this time.
GTFOH. This POS has no chance. AMERICA isn't ready for a RACIST, BIGOT and convict yet.
Only libtards would want the endorsement of a tax evading, racist, bigot....LMAO
is this the best they have to offer???
Anyone who would even consider voting for someone endorsed by sharpton is as foul and as immoral as he is. He's a liar who manufactures racial issues. God will not be good to him or anyone who even approves of him. He is as evil as they come. Hitler had nothing over sharpton. At least Hitler didn't try to hide his evil ugly heart.
say it aint so
His endorsement will tell me to vote for another
waste!
Headline is all I read to get a good laugh...thanks
Oh hell no!
Good then they can start with his tax returns correct?
Dave T: Courted for what? This clown couldn't lead a three car funeral. He's not even fit to hold a mop.
Has he paid his $4+ million dollars in back taxes?
is this after he pays his back taxes? what a pos! then again,he fits right in with the rest of the faces of the dumocrat party!
sorry, can't stop laughing.
These Democ-rats nowadays are so Unhinged and Desperate that they need an "Endorsement" from Tax Evading Loud Mouth Clown? WOW, Pathetic, Sad & Funny at the same time. Al Sharpton - champion of the Poor Sheeple, who been poor for 50 years and cheering, SMH.
ROFLMAO. Thanks, Joe. I needed that!
Biggest racist crook that ever existed. A very large, ugly POS.
Are people still cuddling up to this Civil Rights scam artist? Shows Democrats are dumber than they look.
Still hasn't paid taxes in years.
he needs to wait for the bidding war to commence before he can see who will pay him the most for his endorsement...
This man should be in jail for tax evasion and raced baiting. He should not be a person to ask backing!
Is Chuck Cook going to rag on him about his back taxes and his tax records like he does Mitt Romney and President Trump?
