I believe we have achieved King's dream.

There is no office that any member of any race can not achieve in the US.

King told a half-truth, that, somehow, all the blessings of 'pursuit of happiness' would rain down on everyone, to some extent.

But life is not like that.

Life is hard for everyone, but for those who work, sacrifice, believe in God, and save, and act wisely, MAYBE, life will be a little easier.

But maybe not.

Likewise, maybe it will be easier for those who do none of the right things.

It is not for us to say or begrudge... that is the deadly sin of envy.

Envy is a vice for us, but it is a sacrament for Marx, King and all the leftists who follow him.

Nothing is more repulsive in a human than the supposition that someone else is responsible for one's happiness or prosperity.

We should preserve FREEDOM for ourselves and our posterity, and guarantee NOTHING ELSE.
