Where did Sharpton get this number? If the US has 300 million people, and 11% of them are supposedly African-Americans... and supposedly many of this group are among the poor in America....How could this group as identified by Sharpton possibly spend $738 BILLION a year. $738,000,000,000.00 is a LOT of money.

A businessman who hired Sharpton as a consultant says the flamboyant leader skillfully persuades CEOs by wielding the statistic that African-Americans spend $738 billion a year.
