With all due respect slang, that doesn't necessarily mean anything. Baltimore (pop. 635,000) is 64% black, yet they have a white mayor. San Francisco's population (770,000) is only 8% black, yet they have a black mayor.
If someone is charismatic enough, intelligent enough, can raise enough money, etc., then they certainly have a shot at making the presidency, no matter what their skin color. I don't think Sharpton can actually do this, but there is bound to be someone, sometime that can.
