The Reverend Jesse Jackson will travel to Dallas today in support of Ebola patient Thomas Eric Duncan and his family, he announced on Twitter Monday.

Jackson, the civil rights leader who worked with Martin Luther King Jr., said he wants to “bring comfort” to Duncan’s family, and ensure that Duncan is properly being cared for.

He said Duncan’s family asked him to come to Dallas.

On @TJMShow #Prayers for #ThomasEricDuncan&Family. #Ebola #Dallas #Protest to save his life. He should not be shunned. Retweet if you agree.

1. I'm glad he's doing this -

I was afraid they might not even try experimental meds but thankfully someone came through with that as well.

2. If the family asked him to come that's fine but why is it news?

Is Rev. Jackson a doctor?

And I agree that he should not be shunned, but I have to question how "protest" is going to save his life.

3. Does he want to meet with the patient himself?

4. good for jesse

would guess it is news because his dis tractors want to comment on every time he farts
so anything he does is covered by someone
sharpton gets the same treatment
