ticipaied in the political process, he said.
"After the flood, there would be a sign," Jackson told <
the standing-room-only audience that spilled into the /
Convention Center's upper and lower lobbies. "It would i
be a rainbow, a covenant between God and His people.
That's our salvation. That's our way out. It's hard to i
organize a rainbow. Pulling us together for the first time i
is a great challenge. t
"The Rainbow Coalition must make room for all the
locked-out ... we must make room for everybody." s
To critics and many political analysts, Jackson's cam- I
paign was a hopeless cause from the start. Jackson, they <
say, cannot win the nomination. But Jackson said
Wednesday thai he and his Rainbow Coalition are <
^ I i
aireauy winners. I
"When we begin to win congressional districts across
this state, we are winning," he said. "When young peo- !
pie are voting for the first time, we are winning .... When
we put hope in their brains and not dope in their veins, we
are winning. The genius of Moses was not that he got - i
there, but that he moved in the right direction."
Though he didn't profess to be Moses, Jackson said he
is the man who holds the master plan for change, one I
who can pull together a Rainbow Coalition for the first
time.
Then he addressed his opponents.
"Neither Hart nor Mondale have ever sat down on the
power of their minds and negotiated a contract. I have
been doing it for 20 years," Jackson said. "There was a
strike in St. Louis that lasted for six weeks. I solved it in
three days. There was fireman's strike that lasted for 22
days, with 21 lives lost. I solved it in 48 hours. Those folk
(the other candidates) are advocates. I'm a man of action c
.... They hoped Lt. (Robert) Goodman would come back
home from Syria "
Jackson never finished that sentence. The audience *
jumped to its feet with handclapping and cries of "Win,
I :
jc>>c, win:
"Hart, you don't know and Mondale you know too
well," Jackson said. "Here am I. Send me!"
During several of Jackson's stops in the Triad on
Wednesday, he denounced a federal jury's acquittal of
nine Klansmen and Nazis involved in a Greensboro
shootout that left five communists dead on Nov. 3, 1979.

and "it just happens we think they both should be
elected."...
Gubernatorial hopeful Lauch Faircloth announced
that the Rev. John R. Manley of Chapel Hill, immediate
past president of the General Baptist State Convention,
has joined his campaign team as the co-chairman of his
Orange County organization.
Manley, pastor of First Baptist Church in Chapel Hill
and Hickory Grove Church, is a former member of the
C h a pel ~ FTTT1 -C arrboroSchool" B oar cf "and the NXT
Employment Security Board. ...
Democratic gubernatorial candidate Eddie Knox has
called for increased law enforcement in the state. Knox
said in a recent press release that the state and its agencies
should "provide support for effective and efficient law
enforcement programs and to develop creative and innovative
uses of our resources to fight crime in North
Carolina."...

"Political and civil rights were violated," Jackson told
ilmost 300 students at his alma mater, North Carolina
\&T State University, which stands little more than a
rtile from the site of the bloodbath.
"It's a mockery of the justice system. We can't gi\e
jp. We must keep appealing until justice comes. We can't
est until we are able to make the Klan ... come out of
heir sheets."
When asked at a news conference to comment on a
?tatement by Louis Farrakhan, head of the Nation of
Islam, that black Washington Post reporter Milton Col;man
should be ostracized by other blacks and that,
"One day soon we will punish vou (ColemarO with
death," Jackson threw up his hands and said, "No comment."
Coleman provided information for a Post article that
first reported Jackson's private reference to Jews as
"Hymies" and New York as "Hymietown."
But not all of Jackson's Triad visit was spent addressng
the issues. In part, it was a homecoming of sorts, as
Jackson shared the podium at A&T with Capt. William
Jackson, a retired member of the Greensboro Police
Department.
During Jackson's days as a political activist at A&T, it
vas none other than Capt. Jackson who arrested him,
)ut in an unusual manner.
After finishing a political rally at a nearby church,
lackson said he was greeted by Capt. Jackson, who told
tim he had come to arrest him, handed him a pair of
tandcuffs and asked him to put them on.
Said Jackson of Capt. Jackson: "He represents the
:hange of things to come."
Jackson, who came to A&T for a board of trustees
neeting, also lobbied on behalf of one of A&T's few
)lack engineering professors who has been denied tenure.
"The issue with Dr. (Wesley) Clark," Jackson said,
'will be resolved hv Mav
So, indeed, will North Carolina's presidential primary.
