Does this part of Gore's speech leave any doubt who was behind
the assassination of MLK?
"The FBI privately called King the "most dangerous and effective negro leader in the country" and vowed to "take him off his pedestal". The government even attempted to destroy his marriage and blackmail him into committing suicide. This campaign continued until Dr. King's murder.
Often you hear people talking about Dr. King's death, but the use of the word "murder" hit me immediately. A very deliberate syntax choice on his part.
