Part of why Obama became president was timing. He ran at a time in which the majority of the voters were excited about voting for a black man.Who are you directing this too? It seems as though it would not be Joe, yet I do not see where you have directed it to anyone else.You say that it would have been unlikely that he could become president? Was that as unlikely as Obama's rise to the presidency? No one saw that coming either.
By making such a statement, you are saying that those you have tagged as "liberal thinkers" did not exist during the Civil Right's era. You are implying that social conservatism dominated most political thought of the day regardless of party affiliation. Please expound on that!
Ref post #7:
Had he lived, it would be very unlikely that he would have become president. Also, we have no way of knowing if he would have been a good one.
Please read the posts and stop making me work so hard.... I don't need the extra work of repeating myself.
Could MLK have become president? Of course he could have. But since he was murdered, all we can do us speculate about what might have been.
