19. Barkley's a...
funny guy. He's always said he's an independant, but he had good things to say about Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton, with regards to how they relate to African Americans.

I found him amusing on Hardball and Bill Maher's show. He seemed to dislike the amount of power corporations have and generally sounded pretty liberal on most issues...He also espoused tolerance for gays, whick is impressive for someone who was in sports.

Good for Edwards. Barkley may have been an obnoxious ass hole in the past (I don't know much about it), but from what I've seen, I agree with his politics.
