One would think that as a Reverend Al Sharpton should be able to demonstrate a bit more understanding and tolerance of other religions. Mitt Romney is an intelligent, caring, tolerant, and fine man; evidently moreso than Mr. Sharpton. It's unfortunate that anyone who touts himself as a religious leader can't seem to demonstrate the same sensitivity and tolerance.
