Using excellent scholarship, political scientist Henry presents a thorough analysis of Jackson's involvement in the two most recent presidential campaigns, focusing on his messages in the context of the black political experience.

He discusses the black preacher genre, offers comparisons of the King and Jackson philosophies, examines the successes and failures of the 1984 and 1988 campaigns, analyzes the role of the media in black politics, explores the development of the Rainbow Coalition, and gives a somewhat optimistic assessment of the potential for a Jackson nomination by the Democrats in 1992.
