From Barack Obama's website:

Here is the video of Barack's remarks from this morning, commemorating the 40th anniversary of the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Barack spoke in Fort Wayne, Indiana, in front of a crowd of 2800 people.

I keep thinking how history would have been different if Martin Luther King had not been assassinated in Memphis 40 years ago (and Robert Kennedy on June 5, 1968).  I also scratch my head in wonder at a person like this who had no clue, no opinion about Martin Luther King, even though he was 32 years old the day King was murdered, and 47 years old when he voted against the Martin Luther King Day holiday.  It's mind boggling.
