Barack Obama

Dr. King is here and smiling. Hand in hand.
also don't forget President Johnson, who spent his capital to get it done.
While others talked about helping Dr. King, LBJ was the one to actually do it, and do it sooner than it might have happened.
Amazing that it took another 50 years for Barack Obama to become President.

Rev. Jesse Jackson, (who was there that fateful day in Memphis), almost did it. But racism and a smear did not allow it.
(this was my favorite non President Obama picture from 2008)

and the one singular person in the media, that has never waivered, never cutten run,the only one after that first debate who got the rope-a-dope correct

President Obama's amazing use of Ali's rope-a-dope left those who didn't quite believe,and the republican party, solidly knocked out.
