"Muhammad Ali was The Greatest," Obama said. "Period."
"I am America,'" Obama wrote, quoting Ali, "'I am the part you won't recognize. But get used to me – black, confident, cocky; my name, not yours; my religion, not yours; my goals, my own. Get used to me.'"
Obama noted that Ali supported the struggles of Martin Luther King Jr. and Nelson Mandela, and that he "spoke out when others wouldn't."




He shook up the world, and the world's better for it. Rest in peace, Champ.
