It seems like our long span of not many political assassinations has come to an end. I think the recent deranged behavior coming out of our ‘leaders’ can be attributed to threat of being rubbed out.

Am I the only one who thinks this?

I will agree to this extent: they are to the point now where they want to cross a line of no return, a line that makes clear, even to the low-information voters, that we are no longer a constitutional republic, that the old rules don't apply. They have been moving this way in fits and starts, but now, the total control of the press, and the creation of a populace where 50 percent will vote for their own slavery and not understand it for what it is, allows them to make the final push. There are a few items of business to take care of first, though. One is guns. Two is a conservative military. Three is one big state, Texas, that could stand up to the feds on its own and coalesce the opposition in neighboring small states to its side. They are now working overtime on neutralizing all three of these sources of resistance. When they are ready, they will make that final push, and then squash the inevitable opposition, which will be disunited and weak.

I think that there will either have to be an uprising before that day comes, or else there never will be one.

I don't think it matters who is nominally in charge of the White House. Obama is not smart enough to put together these strategies, he is just a rote follower of Alinsky and Marx. Someone else has the game plan, and if any key Democrat were not in the picture, they would be replaced by someone else who the media would tell us is the smartest person in the world, and who would become the focus of a cult of personality. Hell, they have even made most Democrat voters think that Joe Biden is a wise and intelligent person, experienced in foreign affairs and financial policy. He is a bumbling dimwit. It doesn't matter.

So, in a sense, you are right about the elites fear of the masses as being a concern of theirs. However, I don't think it's due to a fear of assassination (they stay well guarded in their bubbles). I think it's due to the fear of the people rising up en masse. They need to tamp that sucker down while this end game plays out, then they can pull the tablecloth out and say "voila. Here is your new world."
