If party affiliation is that important to him, remind him MLK was a republican.

him MLK was a republican.
So was the great emancipator Lincoln. Frederick Douglass, Harriet Tubman and Sojourner Truth, were also Republicans. Republicans started the NAACP. In 1964, the chief opponents of the Civil Rights Act were Democrat Senators Sam Ervin, Albert Gore, Sr. and Robert Byrd. These overlooked facts have always confused me. Now I am not saying I love Republicans because I am pretty much discouraged by both parties at this juncture...we'll have to see what 2010 brings.

No he wasn’t. That’s been debunked here umpteen times.
