Don't see an Uncle Tom anywhere. I do see a man who is mixed up in his facts and reasoning.

It seems as if he wants to be a republican because republicans have been historically linked to the increase in equality of African Americans. As true as that is, the Republican Party today is not what it was 60 years ago. He also attempts to link his version of modern American liberalism with the Democratic Party. And as for his last misjudgment, Dr. King was never ever linked with any political party. He may share some of the same principles or ideals, but he was never a republican. That is a false analogy.
