Would you take a bullet for an historical figure?
If you could (cue "The Twilight Zone" theme), would you sacrifice your life so that a slain historical figure would live?

I know I'd take the bullet(s) for RFK or Rev. King--the political and spiritual leaders of the Left, respectively, would have given us our best chance to peacefully end the American Empire. I'd die for that.

1. RFK. He would have set this country up for generations of peace,
prosperity, progress and tolerance.
Why do think they whacked him???

3. No, but I would like to give a bullet to more than a few.

4. RFK? Yeah, I think so
This isn't a poll, of course, but he'd get my vote.

On the other hand, if I did take a bullet for him, I think I'd still be pissed off at getting shot at all.
