1. He's a hoot, isn't he?
I met him when both Sharpton and Wes Clark came to speak at our Truman Day Dinner in 2003 - a few days before Clark announced he was going to run.

He's as gregarious in person as on television.

6. Just the color, maybe - not the sentiment.

7. kook? Remind him of this incident!
http://snltranscripts.jt.org/03/03gsushi.phtml

Fade in on videotaped footage of fish being caught with a net and pulled onto a boat. Dissolve into shot of Rev. Al Sharpton, dressed as a pirate, looking into a telescope]

Rev. Al Sharpton: <à la a pirate> Ahoy, mateys! The seas look right as rain! : Hi, I’m the Reverend Al Sharpton. Everyone knows I love fish: fried catfish sandwiches, grilled shrimp salad, salmon stir fry. Yum, I love me some fish - cooked fish, that is! But some goofy son-of-a beestings like to eat that stuff raw. Yes, raw. People paying top dollar for food that ain’t cooked. That’s why I opened up Al Sharpton’s Casa De Sushi.

9. Good question
I didn't see him smoking so I don't know.
