Don't follow the crowd do what you feel is right in your heart and soul. 80% of black people voted for Democrat John Kennedy, but baseball great Jackie Robinson didn't follow the crowd he endorsed and supported Republican Richard Nixon for president.   Jackie Robinson was a great man.

Great athletes, but know as two of the greatest uncle toms. Athletes aren't generally regarded as being intellectually astute. Look at the athletes today....

Jackie Robinson and Jesse Owens were real man, they didn't allow other people to tell them how to think.
