Is there a historical development in America, where visionary leaders are systematically killed?
Take, for example, Abraham Lincoln, who stood for a united America, which opposes the idea, you know what they did .... then advance a few hundred years, what we get yet another visionary, JFK, I need to say more. His brother, in an attempt to spread his legacy has decided to run President of the United States and then, Oh Nooo! This phenomenon is not confined to America, Mahatma Gandhi in India, presented a certain way more radical changes and freedom, which have been adapted by Martin Luther King. These people are the pillars of engineering modern social, whose ideas have survived and have therefore come to accept as prophets of today. Martin Luther King in a speech he talked about not reach the "promised land", a self-inflicted tragic prophecy was fulfilled. Barrack Obama in his campaign speeches, he said would have a running mate who would "take care of things, if something should happen to him. This is shocking.
I think it's certainly on the track. I also think that the problem goes much further and deeper than the tragic murder of Peace celebrates the history and progressive thinkers. The status policy change in the super rich, the masters of business corporations owned and operated "liberal" media in our curriculum in public schools, any critical thinking or visionary actively opposed and eliminated. Our case could and should have been operating under a centuries structure much more healthy and human, social and economic, however, capitalism, competition and personal wealth still revered and adored While terms like liberal, socialists and ecologists are regularly vilified. I still hear no sound, logical reasons for tolerance, generosity, concern for the health of our societies, species and global environmental issues are worthy of our attention.
