If I were Rev. Jeremiah Wright

Whether pro or con, politicians spend millions to get the sort of publicity that Dr. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr., a 66 year old Marine and recipient of eight honorary doctorates, the former pastor of the Trinity United Church of Christ has lost the very thing that he’s worked for nearly 37 years and loved the most, his ministry. So what alternatives are there and given the current political turmoil he appears to still be in, it's not that all complicated to advise him on what his next endeavor should be. Well, let's see. What did we learn from Don Imus, Martha Stewart and Britney Spears' fiascoes? The more stories out in the media , especially negative, the smart and resilient tend to bounce back bigger than ever. Take Imus, he got $20 million from CBS after outbursts from perennial protester Al Sharpton and within a few months after of being yanked off the airwaves, he was soon hired and back on the airwaves by a New York radio station. In the case of Ms. Stewart, she is now richer than she had ever dreamt before she did the roughly 18 months in prison. As for the case of Ms. Spears, the first time I ever heard of her, my soon to be 15 year old mentioned her name a couple of years ago and I've heard it everywhere since. Even actor Wesley Snipes in a couple of years, assuming he'll actually do time from his recent IRS tax conviction, after he gets out of the slamma, he'll command $10 million more per film than before his conviction. What does this all mean? Victims of constant negative public attacks are often sitting in the catbird seat and don't even know it. Rev. Wright should simply capitalize on his new found persona; speaking tours, write a fifth book, paid public and private appearances, the WWF, his own cartoon series, an appearance on Dancing with the Stars and American Idol.
