If MLK was alive 7 years ago he would have been brought to tears as his dream came to fruition with the election of a black man as president

If he was alive today he would have been brought to tears for how badly he has squandered that opportunity.

We haven't been this divided in a long, long time. I know contribute to it as much as anyone. But there's no denying what you said.

MLK would have despised Rev Wright's "church", Obama sat there for 20 years, and only left when it was politically necessary for him to do so. MLK would have despised Bill Ayers' use of violence, yet Ayers was a political mentor to Obama.
