"So perhaps one truth that emerges from the Kennedy assassination is how societies place unreasonable expectations on individual politicians to save us, as though running a complicated democracy were as easy as contriving the heroic climax of a movie"

For several thousands of years, the hero who saved us, has been a staple of stories we tell each other................politicians are probably the weirdest hero's we have imagined. I gave up on politicians 40 years ago as I lobbied Florida's for fisherman in the Key's and realized they never mean what they say, are only looking to leverage idea's for votes.
