Were you aware that there is a statue in D.C. of Rev. Martin Luther King in white granite? I don't recall any commentary whatsoever on the relationship between his skin color and the color of the stone.

Yes I know of the statue and yes............many people did have a problem about the way it looked.

Really? Where?
Look, your thread premise is stupid and you know it. I voted for Obama, but I think even the most ardent of his supporters don't think he should be put on Mt. Rushmore.
Some day there will probably be a statue of him in Washington DC or elsewhere, and that will be enough.
We don't have to worry about such a possibility though.
Only adequately competent presidents who have actually accomplished something during their terms of office should even be considered for additional disturbing of that rock.
Would using blackface be an appropriate action in this case?
Nah, that would extend the time needed for an Environmental Impact Review.
