  Berry Tramel, I thought you were trained as a historian. You, of all people, should know better. You're playing along with the farce to characterize Cassius Clay's name change to Muhammad Ali as a religious-motivated. Historians are trained to "cut through the crap" and document reality. Everybody knows Clay converted ("discovered?") his religion to avoid being drafted to serve his country in Vietnam. The liberal media's worship of Ali is sickening. Revisionism at its worst. Clay/Ali: more Coward than Hero.
