Jesse Jackson's house divided: Jacqueline supports Clinton
'Hillary is ready to lead,' says Jacqueline, whose activist husband, congressman son favor Obama
NEW YORK --

As Barack Obama stumped in Harlem on Thursday, Jacqueline Jackson endorsed Hillary Clinton, with the family of the Rev. Jesse Jackson divided over the two Democratic front-runners.

"Hillary is ready to lead on her first day in the White House and immediately begin delivering the change this country needs," Jacqueline Jackson told the Chicago Sun-Times.

Another son who lives in Chicago, Yusef, is a major Clinton fund-raiser who has bundled together at
least $100,000 in contributions.

Now his mother is also siding with Clinton and may go on the road to stump for her. If she goes to South Carolina -- where Jackson Sr. was born and where he won the 1988 presidential primary -- she will find herself having to dilute the impact of radio ads her son Jesse Jr. has made for Obama.
