Gradually degenerating into ignorance and complacency.

not King

I saw a little blurb comparing Obama to Dr. Martin Luther King. Failing to think of another analogy, an American Bald Eagle (King) can't be compared to a cowbird by many means. Obama is not King by any measure. Dr. Martin Luther King was a unifier who sought the equality of all persons. I don't remember him ending speeches with, "looking forward to your vote this fall" or the use of "change" as an article like "the". It would help if Obama mentioned what his plans are, rather than the typical ...

I have plans
We need change
I am not like Hillary
I'm Black and I'm proud

What I won't remind you is that I'm new to all of this, have made some poor relationships along the way with butting heads, so if I were to "win" the Presidency, I would indeed be ostracized for a number of reasons, some of which are the course of me pushing away people abruptly. I am not a uniter, and I don't walk the talk and don't walk the walk.
