"As Reverend King's niece, Dr. Alveda King, has rightly stated: "Abortion and racism are evil twins, born of the same lie." The lie that there is no inherent worth in humanity. The lie that some people do not deserve the chance to become the next musicians, scientists, architects, leaders, and service members. The lie that not every life is equally valuable to our Creator."

Ted Cruz is NOT eligible, and will be disqualified by an Establishment judge. He was born in Canada. Plus he had a duel citizenship up to 15 months ago.

You are making a collisial mistake puttin all your eggs in one basket.

Well said, sir.

There is a lot to say negative about King; commie, sure. Ignored Planned Parenthood and Sanger - yep. Adulterer, yep.

Martin Luther - Jew hater. But great man.

Lincoln - flawed. Plus, butt ugly wife (couldn’t resist)

Jefferson - liked young girls, rationalized his relationship with Hemmings.

Columbus - likely flawed.

Ghandi - likely flawed.

My point - and flame on, I don’t care - is no matter how great they were, they were human, and thus flawed, sinful, etc. I would also add because King was black, doesn’t mean we don’t have to honor him, too. His niece, BTW, kicks butt and is great to listen to.

"The Supreme Court ruled that unborn children have no right to life. That decision defied the very essence of freedom - without life, there is no liberty. Without life, there is no pursuit of happiness. Yet, since Roe v. Wade, that right has been snatched away from 56 million unborn children."

If you are willing to look at the "good aspects" of Planned Parenthood murder mills rather than defund and prosecute them, you have the blood of innocents on your hands.

It’s sad to see how every American politician, even the most allegedly conservative, obediently kneels at the altar of St. Martin Luther King. Cruz the legal scholar should know better than to praise a man who plagiarized his doctoral thesis, and Cruz the conservative should know better than the venerate a Communist sympathizer and fellow-traveler.

A brief look at the unorthodox theology of Martin Luther King, Jr.

http://hereiblog.com/considering-la-shawn-barber-theological-beliefs-martin-luther-king-jr/

"The conclusion reached from reading King’s works is that he denied three essential tenants about Jesus Christ: 1) his virgin birth 2) his bodily resurrection, and 3) his deity."

Truth can be stated by imperfect people. The statement that “all men are created equal and are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights. . .” That is truth, even though spoken and penned by a flawed human being, even though some acted in ways that violated the principles stated in the Declaration.

Dr. King’s contention that America should be a place where we “judge people, not by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character” is absolutely true. I don’t know if all the accusations against King’s character are true, but he did say some truth that we needed to heard at the time.

In fact, much of what he stood for, like equality before the law without preferential treatment or disadvantage based on race, non-violent change and working within the law, that America simply abide by the principles espoused in our founding documents - all these things are disregarded by today’s so-called civil rights advocates.

So, is King a saint? Certainly not. Did he speak some truth that needed to be said? Absolutely. I honor that part of his memory.

MLK Day is probably our first politically correct holiday. How I hate it.

What will it take to get Washington’s and Lincoln’s birthdays back as nation holidays and bag this PC crap?

Cruz speaks of justice, Trump on the size of his crowd. One is a serious candidate with ideas of liberty the other can’t stop talking about himself.

Yet another example of Cruz being discernment-challenged.
