McCain admits opposing MLK day was a ‘mistake’
“We can be slow as well to give greatness its due, a mistake I made myself long ago when I voted against a federal holiday in memory of Dr. King. I was wrong and eventually realized that, in time to give full support for a state holiday in Arizona.”
John McCain then added “at the time I was not running for President.”
