King's "dream" fulfilled?

I came across this poll in The Washington Post this morning (full story can be found here) and thoughts the results were so interesting. According to this poll, 56 percent of African Americans believe his dream has not been fulfilled and 57 percent of whites think the dream has not been fulfilled. Interesting, no? Although, I admit, I am thinking of this mostly as it relates to race, while the individuals polled may be interpreting King’s dream in more broad terms. I thought this poll was part surprising and part well,duh (the spike in yes answers in early 2009) but overall just extremely interesting. What’s your take? Also check the open-ended responses to the most important black leader in America. Thoughts?
My living situation leaves ALOT to be desired this year, but instead of focusing on the negatives (like the fact that I flinch every time I walk into the room), I’m trying to focus on the little things about my space that make me happy.
