The entire remaining field of major Democratic candidates for president has agreed to participate in Sunday's presidential debate, originating from Milwaukee.

Democratic debate in Milwaukee on Feb. 15

Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry, the front-runner, on Wednesday became the fifth and final invited candidate to commit to be on hand. He didn't decide sooner because of scheduling concerns, said Bill Burton, Kerry's spokesman.

The other candidates who will participate are: former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean, North Carolina Sen. John Edwards, Ohio Rep. Dennis Kucinich and activist Al Sharpton.

The debate will be held at Marquette University's Alumni Memorial Union. Public admission is by ticket only and all have been distributed by a lottery. More information on the debate is available at www.wisconsindebate.com.

The 90-minute debate, sponsored by the Journal Sentinel, WTMJ-TV (Channel 4) and Journal Communications, will start at 5:30 p.m. and will air live on WTMJ-TV locally and nationally on MSNBC. The debate also can be viewed on a live Webcast at www.wisconsindebate.com.

7. So now Sharpton is just an "activist" and not a

REVEREND? Anyone like this dismissal of his title? Think maybe that they don't want to highlight Christians behaving to take care of the poor, the hungry, the widows and orphans?

Am I overreacting? I think NOT.
