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.

We've come a long way, baby!

BACKWARDS....

"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."

"We've come a long way, baby! BACKWARDS..." Your words that I completely agree with.

Amazing how blacks and guilt-driven whites forget those beautiful words. MLK had his foibles, but I still recognize him as a good man who just wanted ALL citizens to have equal standing in America.

Obama had such a great opportunity to bring the races together. He could have celebrated his black ancestry and all they've done, while acknowledging the accomplishments of his white ancestry. Instead, he divided us more with his stupid rhetoric, "the cops acted stupidly" and "if I had a son, he would look like Martin Treyvon", and other inane comments.

I guess that's what we get from a groomed community organizer, rather than a true Statesman. What a waste of opportunity. He could have soothed the soul of inter-racial disharmony. If he had spoken out against the riots in Fergueson, Baltimore, etc. what a powerful message that would have been to bring the races under the fold of Americanism. Just one more reason I despise this man, and the list is long...
