Al Sharpton Calls For US Post Office to Issue a Michael Jackson Stamp: Quick Before the Ugly Side of Jackson is Remembered

Al Sharpton hasn’t had this much attention in years. He’s starting to look like the Colonel Tom Parker of the Michael Jackson death, ready to make a quick profit much like Parker did with Elvis.

Sharpton has called on the US Post Office to immediate issue a Michael Jackson postage stamp. Traditionally it takes five years after someone dies before the post office honors someone. So what’s the rush Reverend Sharpton? Could it be you are trying to beat the coming stories that will cloud Jackson’s memory in the coming months while shamelessly promoting yourself once again?

This is nuts, I guess we knew this was coming, Jackson will be now the black Elvis and his image polished and repainted.

Took a decade for Elvis to be considered and it's their rush to crown kings, ie: Obama statues already everywhere.

I don't much like him on them either

don't think Jackson belongs on a stamp but then, if the Simpsons can be on em....

These comments are good! Maybe they could make the stamp authentic Michael and use the stamp's adhesive to keep the nose on.

I am thinking Al Sharpton opened a can of worms today.

I can't wait for Al to have his own stamp. It'll have the "That's racist" kid gif.
