Happy Dr. Martin Luther King Jr Day

Martin Luther King - I Have A Dream @ Yahoo! Video

Do you think it is ironic that the Inaugration Day is right after Dr. Martin Luther King Jr Day? Do you think that Congress did it on purpose when they voted on the 20th amendment?
I believe that it is a wonderful thing because Barack Obama can speak on this monday and honor the person that protested for civil rights. He can also say how important Dr. King's speech is and how it has affected our lives today. It was not long after his I had a dream speech that congress passed the Civil Rights Amendment to the constitution. Without that amendment, I do not think Obama would be able to run for president.
Thank you Dr. King. You watch America's progress from the heavens. You can see how much America has grown to understand equality and civil rights. You can see that Caucasian Americans have changed by voting for a half African American for president. Thank you.
