Next Monday hell chop it up with, Michael Bloomberg who will join Joe Biden at the Martin Luther King Jr. Day celebration in Washington, D.C., held by Sharptons advocacy organization, the National Action Network, The Atlantic writes.

I dont think were looking for someone without flaws. Im looking for someone who can work on an agenda going forward, Sharpton said in an interview on Monday. He plans to hold off for at least a year before making an official endorsement. No one has won him over completely yet.

Ive been in this too long to be swayed by charisma. I want to hear policy, Sharpton said. Im hearing some good things, some incomplete.

Meanwhile, Rev. Al has suggested how Americans should spend the upcoming Martin Luther King holiday weekend, saying: America has a way of distorting holidays but we should not forget the reason for the Martin Luther King Holiday. Its about fighting for justice and freedom, its not about having a day off from school and work. This year let us fight to make things fair. There are 800,000 employees not getting paid, there are people being treated unfairly so lets fight for justice. Monday is a Justice day, a fairness day, this is not a day to make you feel good.
