WASHINGTON -- Democratic presidential candidate Al Sharpton, in a solo show of solidarity today, marched from a Washington area hotel to a nearby Denny’s restaurant to protest the serving of quiche. Sharpton, who made the eight mile trek alone insisted that this was not a publicity stunt designed to reinvigorate his hopes for becoming the 2004 Democratic Presidential nominee.

“ Corporate America must learn. If Black people don’t like quiche, Denny’s has no business trying to serve it to them”, Sharpton said.

Quiche has long been believed to be the secret food that has prevented Blacks from making their way up the corporate ladder, a kryptonite of sorts, says Sharpton. “ It’s green, has a light, flaky crust and tastes terrible when topped with ice cream. This is nothing more than a way to trick folks into thinking they were eating pie, Sharpton said. “It’s a conspiracy and I plan to stop it”!

After more than nine and a half hours of marching, the Reverend finally completed his journey. However, instead of walking up to the counter to confront the manager, an exhausted Sharpton kicked his shoes off, propped his feet up on a table and decided to take a nap in one of the booths.

Denny’s officials declined to comment.
