The Dream Came True!!! --Thoughts by KK


In 1963, Dr. Martin Luther King had one of the most famous speeches on “I Have a Dream.” During the 1960s, the reputation for black politicians was disgraced. However, in 2008 November 4th, Martin Luther King’s dream came true as candidate Obama won the election. In 1870s, there were two black senators were elected and one black governor of state; however they could not influence politics. Before candidate Obama ran, there were 6 people who ran for the presidential election, yet they had failed. Because of the less than happy endings that people came to expect from the black politicians, candidate Obama had suffered it, but it turned out to be the infinite challenge and broke the prejudice of race. President Obama is now proving that what Martin Luther King Jr. was dreaming turned out true by becoming the new president of United States of America. I have a dream
