Talk:I Have a Dream

From Conservapedia

In my opinion, the most important American speech of the 20th century. Karajou 23:00, 5 April 2007 (EDT)

I heartily agree: it expressed "a dream rooted in the American dream." --Ed Poor 11:38, 6 April 2007 (EDT)
We have a lot to be proud of though; Reagan in Berlin, Lincoln in Gettysburg, Wilson's fourteen Points, Roosevelts New Deal, John F' Kennedy's 'ask now what your country can do for you' etc. etc. Though not all in the 20th century. My vote would have to go to Reagan in Berlin, even if I don't agree entirely with his methods of fighting the Cold War (The Iran Contra Affair for one) In terms of sheer heart-beating-electrification, he beats them all.

Copyright?

What is the copyright status of this page? It does not identify its source or copyright, in violation of Conservapedia:Commandments rule #1. The USA State Department appears to have a partial licence to copy the text, provided a message is included.[1] I don't know if that is where this copy comes from, or whether it is available by other means under a different licence, but this suggests not. Note that Wikisource has deleted it due to copyright issues.[2] --Scott 11:20, 6 April 2007 (EDT)

One would think that the copyright would be in the hands of the King estate? I believe copyright is for the lifetime of the author +50 years, renewable. Crackertalk 11:27, 6 April 2007 (EDT)
Anyway, I deleted it. --Ed Poor 11:28, 6 April 2007 (EDT)
I think the copyright issue has been the subject of litigation. Perhaps a link to the official site for Rev. King would be the best approach here.--Aschlafly 11:31, 6 April 2007 (EDT)

Thankyou - sorry to be the bearer of bad news. My "this" link above should have been to http://www.stanford.edu/group/King/publications/copyright.htm - I didn't notice it was in an HTML frame. The correct link does say to contact the King estate. --Scott 11:36, 6 April 2007 (EDT)
