Happy Martin Luther King Day!
While I'm not certain that King rates his own day compared to one lump day for all U.S. presidents past, his ideal of a colorblind society resonates and is worthy goal that benefits from an annual reminder.
I'm not that crazy about Dr. Martin Luther King Jr's politics (he leaned to the left once you get past his advocacy of colorblindness), and he certainly had some significant personal failings (which are just as well forgotten on the day chosen to commemorate the man), but such is common to the great and significant men (and women) of history.
Here's to MLK.
