He didnt come to my state of the union speeches. And thats okay. Thats his right. And again, nobody has done more for black americans than i have. I understand he should have come. I think he made a big mistake. But taking your relationship with him out of it, do you find his story impressive, what hes done for this country . He was a person that devoted a lot of energy and a lot of heart to civil rights, but there were many others also.
