I think Elvis is treated unfairly to some extent. I mean everything Ray said was true, but Elvis acknowledged it all. Elvis never called himself the King of Rock and Roll. He always admitted that he learned his music and way of performing by sneaking off to black clubs in Memphis and hanging out with black artists when he was coming up. That's why you see a lot of the artists like James Brown and others from that time defend Elvis.
Elvis' existence just shows are weirdly racist white American culture really is. The fact is they love everything about black people, but they hate black people. Food, clothes, music, style, you name it. If you get a white person that does any of those things he way black people do it, that person almost always winds up as one of the most popular people in that area.
