scared. fearful. I'm scared of the news, of an alert. I think of inspirational public figures, of instigators of change, of charismatic speech givers. and I think of their public deaths, their assassinations. I think of JFK. I think of MLK. I think of Ghandi. Not that Obama is of that ilk now, but maybe he might be, and someone might strike him down, that the fringes of society might view him as the Anti Christ, a smooth talker arisen to destroy all that makes America great. I get scared that someone I will tell my kids where I was when it happened. Because I wasn't scared of this before with Bush, with Clinton. But now, now I am. And it makes me scared.
