Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr.’s mother, Jacqueline Jackson, told a Rainbow/PUSH conference Friday that her son has suffered years of “enormous disappointment.”
“I’m not ashamed to say … he thought he was going to be a senator. He thought he was going to have a chance to run for mayor. And young people don’t bounce back from disappointment like me and my husband,” she said.
In the wake of this bizarre excuse for her son’s behavior, Mrs. Jackson has claimed that she was “tricked” into speaking out at the luncheon. The luncheon was organized by her husband’s own organization.

Monterey Bay Forum:  The main stream ABC story listed above about Jesse Jackson, Jr. having a “mood disorder” cites a possible genetic predisposition per opinion of Dr. Harold G. Koenig with Duke University Medical Center.Â
Ah, another highly educated MD at a prestigious medical school dabbling in long distance medical diagnosis. Do you feel in good hands with diagnosis from afar? I don’t.
As to Democrat Rep. Jesse Jackson, Jr.’s voting record, he Did Not Vote on the Ryan Budget, The Domestic Engagement and Jobs Act nor on the Conservatism and Economic Growth bill. Why not?  Rep. Jesse Jackson, Jr. finished theological school so he must think about what’s required of a prophetic voice — which is not silence on important issues such as the Ryan Budget. For straight up information on those who represent us, go to :  http://votesmart.org/candidate/key-votes/72/
