   they both were muslims who claimed to be Chistians.
   They both speak in that obnoxious preachy manner.
   they both hate America.
   They both are communists.

   similarities – they used their African American ancestory to win a lot of votes and hearts. differences – MLK had a dream, that many people believed in and followed and help get us where we are today. Obama wanted to be president, he made up these great ideas and solutions but have failed to come through when we need them.

   Like has nothing to do with it. Judge the person on his accomplishments. MLK website is:

   Listen to his “I have a Dream Speech” it is awesome.
   http://www.whitehouse.gov/administration/president-obama is a decent Obama site as is http://www.whitehouse.gov/
   Look for their cries for ‘change’ for making America more than what she is…

   i had the same thing for an essay contest thing that my whole English class had to do…

   similarities: they both had a large support groups, they targeted the young and many of different races and ages

   differences: martin luther king didn’t do it by himself, he had people like rosa parks, freedom riders- he was just a spokes person…. and obama used money to support himself
