So powerful? Yes.

Lot of judgment, Dave.  Did he make you tingle a little bit, too? 
I dunno, I didn't get worked up over the Obama thing either.

The assassination was the edge-event between an era of innocence and everything since. It's hard to even describe that time between WWII and the assassination because it was so different in so many ways. Take it at face value or not.
