Remember these words?

" I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. "

What a shame the so-called Black Leaders preach just the opposite of MLK, seeking preferences and handouts based not character but race. ...what a shame.

I wonder if sometimes having the famous name damages the child in some way. (Jesse Jackson, Jr., Frank Sinatra, Jr.
Ron Reagan etc.)

The black homicide rate is high, he said, "because we've been taught to hate ourselves."
I know, I know it is all my fault.
BUT, you haven't read your Bible much have you?
Eph 5:29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:

"... In the United States of America, with billions of dollars, we gotta find a way to reprogram some of those dollars."

I just can't imagine what he's thinking, here....

MLK did preach that in the 60s, but had he lived, he would have been just another (perhaps more accomplished) collectivist that call for income redistribution to solve all the world's problems. He would have likely supported Affirmative Action and withdrawing from Iraq.

Most people don't realize just how close MLK was to Russian Communists and his socialist views.
