As passionate as Shannon was regarding #BlackLivesMatter, he is passionate about his country and our election process and respect for the institution.
Former NFL great, Shannon Sharpe is rarely shy about giving his opinion on anything. Check out what he had to say when asked about the presidential election.
“The people voted, he didn’t elect himself; the people spoke. I look at the presidency as an institution and I will have the same respect for him as I have for Obama.”
When asked about the racial lines…
“The division has been there; the only thing that social media has done for race relationships in America is highlighting it. The biggest mistake that people thought was that once we elected a black president, that racism was going away. Racism never went away.”
