ABC News' Jake Tapper on "who won the showdown in Selma?" LINK

On his "Political Punch" blog, Tapper writes that Sen. Obama "credited the 'Bloody Sunday' civil rights marchers of 1965 with the fact that his parents — a black African father, and white Kansas mother — were empowered to fall in love and get married."LINK

"Um," writes Tapper, "Obama was born in 1961; the Selma march was four years later."
