The Legacy of Martin Luther King Jr.

Event Date: 
January 15, 2018 (All day)

As Oprah ponders a run for the Presidency as a Democrat, she might pause and reflect on the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. today honoring a great Republican. Dr. King chose to be a registered Republican because he knew, as does anyone who knows civil rights history, that the Democrats were the party of; slavery, the KKK, Jim Crow, and builders of Confederate war memorial monuments honoring slave owners. Few people remember that it was the Republican President Eisenhower who used federal troops to desegregate schools in Bill Clinton’s state of Arkansas and that famous white Republicans like Charlton Heston marched with Dr. King to demand civil rights for all Americans.

Oprah does not wish to know that one of the largest owners of slaves was black and that he bred black families to be sold as slaves. Oprah does not likely accept the truth that there were many black slave owners in the South nor that the slave trade in Africa was conducted exclusively by tribes of her black ancestors. While it may be fun to pretend that ancestors of slaves were all kings and queens in Africa, the simple truth is that it was the tribal tyranny by their own race that sold them as slaves just as tribal tyranny still keeps Africans trapped within prisons of their own ignorance. Oprah’s relatives came to America because they were sold by the tribe as unpopular politically incorrect outcasts. Oprah probably doesn’t know; that half the African people in the South were free at the start of the Civil War, that less than five percent of people in the South ever owned slaves, and that it was politically incorrect abolitionists who elected Lincoln to end slavery as the party of Lincoln - which founded; the Grand Old Party, or the GOP, and the Republican Party of which Dr. King was proud to be a voting member. Oprah doesn’t remember that the Democrats did not allow the name of Lincoln on the ballet in the South and (like Trump) won against all odds by the Republican votes by those who would end all forms of slavery.

So called black studies at our universities omit and revise our history to promote the national socialist Democrat propaganda to perpetuate divide and conquer racism that preys on black and white ignorance manufacturing white guilt from revised history to help create more socialist slaves who mindlessly follow their politically correct socialist slave owners like Hillary and Obama. Oprah does not acknowledge that it was millions of white Republican men who died fighting for African freedom here in America. Indeed, America did not invent slavery which has existed for all of human history. However, it was American Republicans who ended slavery within our nation and around the the world by defeating socialist, communist, and Islamic forms of slavery. National socialist Democrat dictators (like Obama and the Clinton’s) wish to create more equal slaves throughout the world while attacking Republicans like Presidents Reagan and Trump who have opposed tyrannies of regressive slavery by many names. As she embraces the National Socialist Democrats, Oprah probably doesn’t care to remember that ‘Nazi’ is a German contraction for national socialist nor that the USSR is a contraction for Union of Soviet Socialists which were both socialist slave states destroyed by America.

Today, the Democrats are still the party of slavery, as newspeak progressives, who impose the Marxist economic slavery of socialism for all Americans (through Obamacare and confiscatory taxation). As Von Mises said; the only difference between socialism and communism (or Fascism) is an argument about the economic class of the dictator (i.e. slave owner). Indeed the socialist argument against Trump appears to be that he doesn’t come from the politically correct socialist slave owner class. Dr. King’s legacy was that he non-violently opposed the Jim Crow Democrats and won civil rights for his people as a good Republican rather than capitulating to Democrats as another socialist black slave owner like Obama. Now President Trump would win back the economic freedoms for all Americans by restoring the free enterprise system that was corrupted during eight years of Obama’s socialist reign. As Lincoln said; “As I refuse to be a slave, so then would I refuse to be a slave owner.” Dr. King’s politically incorrect Republican legacy is that slavery, even economic slavery by any other name, is still slavery (even when it’s called progressive by socialists). President Trump, as one of many politically incorrect Republicans, continues that heritage of freedom and liberty and joins Dr. King who (opposing Obama’s Reverend Wright) said; “God bless America!”
