So was Eisenhower a founding father then? LOL

She is sadly a member of the King family - though the niece of Martin Luther King and obviously a woman who does not know her history

It's like stupid contest - just amazing how arrogant these religious types are.

Alveda King is a hero from a family of heros. She knows truth and does not fear. These people are the haters of Martin Luther King, Jr. She sought the truth and had to fight to tell the truth, just like her Uncle Martin Luther King, Jr., and her father, his brother. She is their true descendent. God Bless Her.

This is not a theocracy.

"god" was placed as a propaganda tool..doing everything to make the founders' fears of centuries to come true

fascism has finally reached america, wrapped in a national flag and a cross

@bluegrassbach The idea of placing "In God We Trust" on the currency as a way to fight the supposed godless communism of the Soviet Union is the most important thing to remember. It was placed there as cold-war era propaganda, not to encourage the idea of the US as a christian nation.

Context matters!

So not only were there black founding fathers, but they owned slaves..... Surprisingly, on her last history exam in college, she only got 3/5th of the questions right. ...

[bluegrassbach]

First of all, whether the founding fathers placed this motto on our currency has nothing to do with whether they believed in God or not.

The more important question is, "Does the motto, "In God We Trust," now appear on our coins and bills?" Let me see...yes there it is on the change in my pocket and....well look at that one dollar bill! For an interesting read on how the motto got there go to an unbiased source. It was the work of congress throughout history and supported by the supreme court.

i missed that part of history who were the black founding fathers?

in those days blacks couldnt own land are any thing,,,

this uncle tom says anything beck tells her to say what a sick bitch

[Corduroy66]

Tell the gamblers and investors to trust God and not the slot machines or stock market.

[Poochalot]

I fucking hate this hateful HOMPPHOBIC piece of SHIT! She keeps dragging MLK into her hate and makes it sound like MLK is talking. He believed in equality for ALL, not just based on skin color like this fat hateful bitch is doing. I really wish I had a dartboard with her face on it!

I love how everyone thinks that just because she is Kings niece it must mean that she speaks for king from beyond the grave.
