The Dream after King’s Dream

Happy Martin Luther King, Jr. Day!

All Americans should celebrate the life of this great American and the minders of the Georgia State House located just blocks from the place of his birth in Atlanta, should find a more prominent place for his portrait, but I digress.

Below is my first Charlotte Observer column published January 16, 2007. So important have race relations been in my life that I made it the subject of my dead tree main stream media debut.

Let me add some context, two years on. Much of MLK’s dream has been realized, and tomorrows Inauguration of the first President of known partial African descent is just the latest and most visible.

Palin approval rating rebounding

According to the results of a Fox News opinion poll released yesterday, former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin’s national approval rating is now 49 percent, an improvement of four points since early November. The results contradict claims made by Democrats and some in the media that Gov. Palin would fade from the national scene after the election.

Among Republicans, the Alaska governor’s approval rating is an overwhelming 85 percent, eclipsing Vice President-elect Joe Biden’s approval rating among Democrats by 10 percent. Among independents, a segment of the population the media has often portrayed as being completely turned off by Palin, she nevertheless has an approval rating of 46 percent.
