Did Jesse Jackson have a stroke?

Or has he come down with Bell's Palsy? Look at his face, the left side of his mouth in particular...

1. kicking for comments

Did anyone notice how he was sounding weird and his face was VERY asymmetrical?

2. I had just thought that as well

plus his left cheek looked a bit rough as well. His left eyelid looked ok, so I cant tell for sure.

5. I thought he sounded funny

and when I started looking closely at his face, I noticed that his upper lip on the left side seemed to be "hanging", fotr want of a better term. My late mom had both Bell's Palsy and several strokes and I know that sound and look when I see it. Whether or not it was reported, it looks like he had something neurological incident.

6. Yes, I noticed......

It was pretty evident that the left side of his mouth was drooping. I had a conversation with myself about this in fact!
