Martin Luther King, Jr.



Martin Luther King, Jr. is a black-rights activist who is currently in a coma following an assassination attempt in 1968. His great strides forward in civil liberties in later life are seen by historians as a counterbalance to his unfortunate contributions to the development of Lutheranism by being founder Martin Luther King's son.

Mr. Jr. is a Republican.

Stephen Colbert proudly attended the ground-breaking ceremony for the King Memorial on the Mall in Washington as a guest of patrotic American designer Tommy Hilfiger. President George W. Bush, who has done much to advance associations of colored peoples across this nation, was also in attendance.
