Hillary Clinton is being criticized for her comments about Martin Luther King and civil rights. People seem to have overlooked her slander of Eisenhower at the same time. She said Eisenhower (she didn't mention his name, just referred to the President before JFK) had done nothing in the field of civil rights. That was untrue. He was behind the civil rights law of 1957, which was the first one since the post-civil war era. The 1957 law was less than what Eisenhower had called for in his State of the Union address. The reason for that was that it was sabotaged by Senator Russell and Senator Lyndon Johnson, the guy given credit for the laws in the 1960's. The ignorance of the MSM about the recent past is appalling.
