After his (arranged) death, lobbies take over control of USA. Increase the national debt ,reduce all kinds of freedoms ...in the name of peace and freedom.
I'm not an American, although I recognize in his face the last one true and wise American president .

Again, no pressure."

The late Olof Palme have always been one of my idols when it comes to speech and rethoric. During his time as prime minister he delivered some of the strongest political speeches I've heard. Usually short, consice and to the point and not at all afraid of being controversial. His scathing critisism of the Hanoi christmas bombings is probably my favourite. Other great ones are "Why I'm a socialist and democrat" and "The creatures of Dictatorships"

Palme speaks about Hanoi

Guernica, Oradour, Babij Jar, KatyÅ, Lidice, Sharpeville, Treblinka. in these places, violence triumphed. But the judgement of following generations fell heavily on those who were responsible. Now another name is added to the row: Hanoi, Christmas 1972

Also a honourable mention to Jens Stoltenberg, who handled the Norway attacks 2011 well and also managed to give some great respectful, yet stern speeches.
