Game of Thrones final season [spoilers]

[Amarok]

1. As I explained a segment of white(often conservative ) America viewed him as subversive 

2. Again though none of them were Hendrix or as radical as Hendrix 

3. Because his lyrics and sound  freaked them out the same other styles freaked people out like Kiss did  during their time or Marilyn Manson not to long ago .

4 . Yes I know the counter culture did that my point he was perceived as a threat to status que  as were a lot of things during the 60s

So, 'they' sent in Elvis to save the day?  The man they wouldn't televise from the waist down because his movements were too provocative.  

Doesn't make a lot of sense.

'They' should have called on Pat Boone.

By comparison I suppose they thought he was he lesser of two imagined evils . But your right it was a bad plan as most plans based on fear are .
