MARTIN LUTHER KING JR., conservative. But in his way, Dr. King did a lot to preserve, protect and defend the best of our principles and values. “There is something wrong with our world, something fundamentally and basically wrong,” he told a Detroit congregation in 1954. But Dr. King showed that it was the kind of language that can also lead a nation to better itself, to renew its attention to the ideals on which it was founded, to proceed, however unevenly, toward equal justice under the law. .”Spoken like a true conservative, and a truly great one.
