Second, the stock market jumped 120 points soon after the polls opened, not when he was elected. In fact, the following day when it was confirmed he had won the...

    If you didnt think Stone was a Kook before.....

    While I do think Hitler is someone to be despised. Stone has point, he was someone that could be assassinated, Grhongring(spelling?) his second in command and Himmler were worse. Assassinating him would have done nothing.
