    Was Dunkin' Donuts wrong for the way they advertise their new donut, the charcoal donut, in the train in Bangkok, Thailand? I honest and truly think that it isn't racist. They made it look more interesting to taste and try. I would love to try it due to it advertising. Dunkin' Donut is very popular around the world. I am sure they would not have made this advertisement if they knew it would be look at as the world famous donut business being racist.

   Dr. King have made a different in the world. Thousands gathered on the National Mall Wednesday to mark the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington and Martin Luther King Jr.’s famous “I Have a Dream” speech. Why is that Ray Myrie is the only one holding up the flag of United States of America? Why is there only one flag in this picture? Shouldn't there be more flags in the background of this picture.

   The majority of Miley Cyrus fans are the young children and teenagers around the world. So for her to present herself like that in national television, she is not setting an examples. When you are considers an idol to those who are very much easy influence, you have to be alert and cautious in whatever you do, how you do it and what you're doing. Miley Cyrus bending over on Robin Thicke, a married man, with her tongue out and only a bra and pantie on and have a bottom cheeks out is not appropriate and nothing I think she should have done.
