There may be some Republican politicians somewhere who are supporting him, but if there are, I haven't heard anything about it. Republicans as a whole no longer raise opposition to affirmative action, one more issue they have conceded to the Democrats. They would like to do the same thing with illegal immigration. I don't think the Republican Party is beyond repair yet, but it is getting close. Connerly is doing a tremendous job, & it is not only the LA Times that is opposing him.

MLK was most certainly not. He was a socialist and campaigned openly against Goldwater in '64. He was also closely allied to JFK in '60 due to Kennedy's role in releasing him from a Georgia prison.
