MLK Jr. Praised the U.S. Constitution

Leftists show their contempt for the Constitution in many ways: insulting the Founding Fathers, calling the Constitution a “living document” (as if the words in the Constitution have no meaning), etc. These socialists could learn something from Martin Luther King Jr., who praised the Constitution numerous times. For example, during King’s magnificent “I Have a Dream” speech on August 28, 1963, he noted that “the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence.” He also rightfully praised the Founders for placing legalized slavery on the path to extinction: “they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir. This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the ‘unalienable Rights’ of ‘Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.’” King changed the country for the better, in part because he recognized the inherent goodness of the American people, and America in general. How different from the “blame America first” leftists of today.
