Entry #722 - Watching History Again

This video was made January 27th, 2008, but locked for fear of misunderstanding. I wrote about it here:

Two years later I re-uploaded it and made it public for the first time. I write about why here:

MLK was a good and decent man, he was genuine. He didn't seem to have the same aspirations... he just wanted what was right!

[Adam4tvs]

Completely different time. MLK helped make the aspiration of a black man being president even plausible.

never compare Obama, the war mongering, backstabbing, big bank boosting, snake in the grass to the illustrious and revolutionary MLK. You see history repeat then why not stop it from repeating and hit the streets, rather than sin about it and watch it happen again!

[Adam4tvs]

You do realize that MLK said the same things that Reverand Wright said about "damning America" for their wars, right? So many people have such a sanitized idea of MLK.. he said some pretty intense things against this country (which I love about him) and "the right" seem to ignore all of that...

Obama differs from Kennedy in that Obama's secret service detail won't slow his limousine when the shots ring out.

[OpenInsanity]

These buffoons are definately playing with fire.

I like it, should keep it up, definitely sends a strong message.

I'm so glad you put this video back up. The song is great, and the message is important.

I'm so proud of that man. I'm so proud to be able to say that the first president I voted for was Barack Obama. And no one will ever be able to take that away from me.

And I hope that no one will take him away from us. He is what this country needs. It may be a while before everyone realizes that, but it's true. History will prove it.
