Thread Name: BS: history of USA Presidential elections...
Subject: RE: BS: history of USA Presidential elections...
Exactly...
I believe that the 3 most influential men of the 60's who represented the "movement" were all killed by folks whoes motives were very suspect: Malcom X, Dr, King and Bobby Kennedy...
... and I think they were killed by folks who were set up by the CIA who was taking it's orders from Boss Hog hisself... I mean, how else could these assasinations happen by folks who really didn't have much a bone to pick with these folks???
I understand John Hinkley... Well, not really... But at l;east he was a certified nutball who thought he was shooting Reagan for a movie star...
But these other assasins??? No logic other than they were well paid or...
...something...
I don't even put JFK assasination intio the mix but maybe I should... He just never seemed like as big a threat to Boss Hog and the corporate thugs as the other three... But maybe I should which would make 4 assasination by folks with no apparent motives...
Hey, not that I am advocating assaination as a way to control one's government but seein' as we have speculated on post War Between the States scenerios, hey...
What if the progressives had pulled a page out of the right wingers play book during Reagan's administration. or even the current administration, I wonder who would have been assainiated and how that might change the direction of the country...
The 60's certainly posed a threat to the military/industrial complex and it "was handled"...
What about the converse???
Like I said, I am not advocating anything here... I do not believe that violence solves anything even though it stopped a "movement" in it's tracks...
Just food for thought???
Cheney/Wolfowitz/Pearle???
Bush/Rove/Rice???
Reagan/Richardson/Kirkpatrick???
The combinations are endless...
Like I said, just food for thought when we discuss events that could have changed history...
(Now please don't bust down my door, Micheal Chertoff... This is a discussion... Not a suggestion...)
