Dr. King predicted a black President within 25 years or less (in 1968). At least his prediction, if late, came true.

A video of his prediction, and a discussion of a future black President can be found here - http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/programmes/world_news_america/default.stm

Too bad the rest of his vision hasn't come true.


"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."

But don't you think Obama WASelected for the content of his character and not the color of his skin? I don't think of him as a "black" man. He isn't any way. His mother was white. He is multiracial. Even though some voted for him because of his color, the majority voted for him on the content of his character. THAT speaks volumes.
