Mommyrant on MLK Day

I have a dream:
That our nation's President would not identify himself as a relative to a teenage gang member.
That our nation's President would identify with an Australian native gunned down in gang violence. 
That our President's largest political donors would not have made their money by selling drugs and making rap music that promotes misogyny, rape, gang violence, gun violence and racism. 
That our President's largest political donors would not make money by using words like "Nigger" in their song lyrics.
That our President's social programs would not continue to enslave our downtrodden and underserved.
That our President's international policies would not continue to enslave our nation to Middle Eastern vagaries and Middle Eastern oil.
That our President's treatment of our white Ambassador and our white servicemen killed in Libya would garner a moment's notice---but the death of a black teenaged gang member would not made the nightly news for months in a row.
That our President's response to the death of a 88 year old white man WWII veteran killed by black man in Washington would not be silence.
That the legacy of our first 'black' President would be one of skyrocketing debt, drone strikes, major metropolitan areas being abandoned, the exclusion of his family and our federal elected officials from his nationalized social medicine program and the spying on and bigotry against some of our country's own citizens.
I have a dream.
Go on, President Obama, go to the Monument and make today all about you.
This was not Martin Luther King Jr's Dream.
This would have been his nightmare.
