So I was over on Fox Sports and came across and
article about Charles Barkley running for Governor of Alabama. It is not a big deal that he wants to run for governor. He mentioned this fact a long time ago in Playboy magazine. What is funny about it this go around is he stated that he does NOT want endorsements from Jessie Jackson and Al Shapton. Barkley stated, "I don't believe in them, they always play the race card, and you can't always play the race card."
Barkley was known for speaking his mind while he was an NBA star. Being very blunt was his claim to fame.
