Moms Mabley sings a beautiful rendition of the Dion classic: Abraham, Martin & John. With a legacy of hope President Obama takes office. IMPORTANT: This was created during those magic months right before the election. I felt the legacy of peoples' hopes might finally be realized with the election of Senator Obama. Peoples' issues from the '60s & '70s have been ignored since Reagan. In NO way did I intend to imply some worry or premonition of ill toward President Obama. I does kinda feel like that post-election, though. It's purely a representation of decades of pent-up hope for many people joyous at the upcoming election of Barack Obama.

I was in high school when the Civil Rights movement took place. I feel previleged to have lived among the times of these Great Americans.looking at the photos I'm surprised at how young John, Martin and Bobby were. These men were True Americans in every sense of the word. Barack Obama is the inheritor of this great struggle. God Bless America.

We forget how much hatred these giants provoked in their own time. So too, great leaders (perhaps Obama too) seem subject to much unjustified criticism, hostility, distortions -- till after they are gone. Only then do we begin to appreciate how great they truly were.

Have anybody here seen my old friend Abrahan
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed a lot of people...
But it seems a good die young
I just look around when he's gone. ((Am I right with what I wrote here?))
After all I'm learning the language...

The price for peace and freedom from violence for all of us in the United States can be had for the small price of just giving up hatred, fear and ignorance,and not believing everything that you hear uttered by dunces with microphones.Take care ADonovan43

Just to set the record straight, John Kennedy didn't set anybody free, he needed to be re-elected in 1964 and didn't want to piss off the southern whites so as usual Robert delicately tried to intercede....AFTER 1963 Bob Kennedy became a changed man due to the grief and pain of the death of his brother(who he devoted his career to) and began to think for himself changed his position on Civil Rights,Poverty, Vietnam and became this incredible human being....

@ 2:00, MLK must have been looking at LBJ and thinking "This is the DUMBEST M***HER F***KER i've EVER spoken to. The CIA killed Kennedy and left this RETARD in power??" Kennedy was our last hope in America....... They're going to collapse the economy by the end of this yr. We're in BIG trouble America
