If the revend J$cks$n were white, the media would be as interested in him as a trash truck driver with Parkinson's.

Interesting that concussions or other brain injuries aren't listed as possible causes. When Ali was diagnosed, I assumed it was the result of the many blows to the head he sustained as a boxer. Apparently, in Jackson's case, his was hereditary.
