"I'm not at all sure this holiday will survive as time goes on. I certainly hope it does. But as a national holiday...I mean, the fact that a President of the United States ostensibly ignored it - he put out some statement - but he didn't pay service to it. I think going forward to keep it to being a true national holiday is going to require a continued struggle. I hope I'm wrong about that." (Dan Rather on MSNBC)
