"Reverend" Jackson?

I admit that I do not know the Bible as well as I should. I've been working on correcting that with a Bible study course called Crossways that my church is giving.

That said I couldn't help but laugh when I read a story at NewsMAX about Reverend Jesse Jackson saying that if Jesus were to be born today he would be born under policies " that left Jesus and Mary and Joseph, in a sense, homeless ". Correct me if I'm wrong but weren't Mary and Joseph traveling to Bethlehem to take part in a census? There weren't living there. They were in a manger because the inn was full.

I find it scary that people support Jackson in any manner. He does nothing but stir up trouble where none exists in order to keep himself in the news.
