Yep, I would vote for him in a second and I'm an Atheist, oh and I live on the other side of the world.

I would have to say no. But, the only way I would say no is if he was able to stay in the time period where he had a dream of equality and could look into the future to see what is happening today. Today, people have a choice to be equal and that path is disapointing because it leads to the long and narrow path that Christianity speaks of. I honestly beleive that Martin Luther King Jr. did not want an advantage for his people; he wanted equality for his people. Today, laws are against discrimination and business are for equal oportunity any vialation of such can be protested in court for a judgement of violated rights. In Martin Luther King Jr. time that was unspeakable. If you look at the jails, crime(in which black on black is the highest),and poverty levels African Americans rank the highest. I am positive that would be disapointing and create disatisfaction for Martin Luther King Jr.

George Washington is a good one and also Martin Luther King Jr. He was fighting for a better America in very hard times.

America is ready for a President of any color or gender.  The question is, will American's vote for such a person?  If the right candidate presents him or her self, I think they can get elected.  Right now, though, nobody appears to be this person.  Jesse Jackson?  Yeah, right.  Way too radical, even for some African Americans.  Condoleeza Rice?  No way - she has too much of Bush's dirt on her hands.  Colin Powell?  A possibility, but he has the Bush problem as well, and besides, he has said he doesn't want to run for political office.  Maybe in 2012 a guy like Barak Obama from Illinois can run and win.  I think its more likely that we will see a female President first, like Hillary Clinton.  She is probably going to be the Democratic nominee in 2008, and the Republicans will be hard pressed to find a competitive candidate after all that Bush has done as President.  The country is tired of Republican policy, and are looking for a change.

In popular history, no one around has ever heard of the "Poor Peoples' March on Washington" which MLK, Jr. started.  It is just quietly swept under the rug, so to speak.  MLK, Jr. wasn't just fighting for the rights of black Americans, he was fighting for the rights of all poor Americans!

Martin Luther King, Jr. (January 15, 1929 – April 4, 1968) was a Baptist minister and American political activist who was the most famous leader of the American civil rights movement. King won the Nobel Peace Prize [1] before being assassinated in 1968. In 1977, King was posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, by Jimmy Carter. For his promotion of non-violence and racial equality, King is considered a peacemaker and martyr by many people around the world. Martin Luther King Day was established in his honor.

I would actually love to see both a Black man and a woman run for office at the same time, since this has never happened in the history of the us presidential elections, I think we all need to be open minded and think that both a woman or a black man are perfectly capable of runiing this country.  I also think this could happen as early as the 2008 elections with Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama on the ticket.

I think the American people are ready for a woman president. I wouldn't VOTE for Hiliary Clinton but I would vote for Condelezza Rice. I think she would make a great president. She would also make a milstone for the United States becasue she would be the first woman president and the first african american president. I hope she runs for office.
