Now recognition of all presidents is lumped together into one day.
And the big events of the day are Presidents Day sales at car dealers, furniture stores and discount mattress peddlers.
But Michael King Jr. (MLK Jr.’s real birth name and legal name) gets a full legal holiday because he is Oh-so much more important than all the presidents lumped together.

IMHO MLK Jr. doesn’t amount to a pimple on the butt of Gerorge Washinton’s horse.
It is disgusting that all presidents are honored with a day.
Many do not deserve honoring.
Few are of the caliber of Washington.
The honoring was back then, a remembering of the history.
that has been lost.
