The power of his words.. All you have to do is replace Vietnam with "war on terror" and it would sum up our current situation. The time to break the silence is now. Obama is getting us more and more involved in an endless nation building genocide, He claimed as candidate the first thing he would do was bring our troops home. He ran on false slogans and misleading propaganda. Obama has betrayed us we must demand him to end the war, instead of giving us excuses. We have to take our country back.
This is my favorite speech he did. I like it more than the "I have a dream" speech. He is talking about the truth of war. Why we need to speak out. Whether it is a democrat or a republican president responsible. That is the civic duty of every american.
i am going to meditate every day and BEG the universe to send us back the energy that was Dr. Martin Luther King. I don't know anyone (including myself) even worthy to say his name. Our government MURDERS third world peoples en masse in three countries based on FALSE pretext, and we just sit around sloppin' hamburgers and feelin' good about the fact that we elected a black president, and everything is ok. EVERYTHING IS NOT OK, and we are complicit. OUR SILENCE IS BETRAYAL!!
@3l3vans Hell to the yes. Ty. You are not alone. There are many that speek agianst the government. and we are the freedom fighters. You are one of us. Keep speeking and dont let anyone tell you you are wrong.
Obama continues the wars of his predecessor and if Martin was alive today he would be speaking out against them as he did about the Vietnam war! Just because someone has the same skin color as you does not make him your friend! This is about class not race!
The Riverside Church, April 4, 1967, one year to the day Dr. Kings voice was silenced. The Words he used in his sermen that night could stand on it's own today. Dr. King also had is famous " I Have A Dream " speach; . Today, 40 years later Barack Obama is two steps away from winning the Presidency of the United States!!! A dream come true!!!
This speech represents the "shift" that began in this country. It's time we stood up and demanded that our voices be heard by the powers that be. It's time for the poor and working poor take back our country and declare to the haves and to big government, "Not this time!"
It's incredible that, at the time of this comment, this post has only 143 views. Maybe it may only take 143 people to make a change. Principle will not die. There are dark forces that wish to destroy this world, they are determined. Father King is truly a godsent. Although his exploits are generations before my time, his words seem to still resonate an innate strength that only the righteous have.
Check out the new MLK song "FULL JUSTICE" now on Youtube. Get ready to be inspired. Watch it now!!

This is the greatest speech he ever gave. I wish Obama had 1/10 the courage that Dr King had. Maybe one day he will.

Dept of Defense says Dr. King would support their wars today. Guess they need to go back and listen and read.
