To the poster who denied MLK Jr ever denounced Reagan:

As I already said, Reagan wasn't born in 1980. He was a national figure well known in the 60s for his opposition to the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

You won't believe my sources.

Well how about this right-wing source?

There is probably no greater sacred cow in America than Martin Luther King Jr. The slightest criticism of him or even suggesting that he isn’t deserving of a national holiday leads to the usual accusations of racist, fascism, and the rest of the usual left-wing epithets not only from liberals, but also from many ostensible conservatives and libertarians.

This is amazing because during the 50s and 60s, the Right almost unanimously opposed the civil rights movement. Contrary to the claims of many neocons, the opposition was not limited to the John Birch Society and southern conservatives. It was made by politicians like Ronald Reagan and Barry Goldwater, and in the pages of Modern Age, Human Events...

King said of Reagan, "When a Hollywood performer, lacking distinction even as an actor, can become a leading war hawk candidate for the presidency, only the irrationalities induced by war psychosis can explain such a turn of events."

My point is that MLK died in early 68, Reagan was barely governor by then and didnt get into a presidential race until years after MLK was dead.
So how could have MLK said he was a leading presidential candidate?
