Cornel West: Our Beloved President is A Fulfillment of King's Dream, Not THE Fulfillment of King's Dream
Here's more of Tavis Smiley's panel segment that I posted this portion of yesterday. Cornel West reminds us of what the spirit of Martin Luther King Jr. might be saying to President Obama and that the media's caricature of of President Obama as the fulfillment of Dr. King's dream is not true. He is A fulfillment, not THE fulfillment.
As West mentioned, King's real dream was the elimination of poverty and war.
