What is the difference between assassination and just plain murder?
Q. Some people say that assassination is the murder of an important person. But then, who decides whether you're important enough to be assassinated. Is there some sort of set way or scale to measure one's importance and to differentiate between assassination and murder?

A. Assassination "is the intentional killing of a specified victim or group of victims, perpetrated for a reason related to his (her, their) public prominence and undertaken with a political purpose in view." If the person who was murdered was a public figure, and the killing was politically motivated, it was an assassination.

Who was the person arrested for planning an assassination attempt on Barack Obama ?
Q. I read a brief article on one of the internet news services, a week or so ago, indicating that someone was arrested for planning an assassination attempt on Barack Obama. I don't know if the arrest was made by Homeland Security or the FBI, or some other law enforcement agency. I am curious to learn who would be crazy enough to attempt to do this.

How important do you haft to be for your death to be considered an assassination?
Q. What is the differance between an assassination and a murder? Attemped murder or Attempted assassination? Is it only a matter of your social status? Is the law different for one than it is for the other? I know this is an odd question, but while listening to a news program I expected them to say one thing and they said the other. Just wondering what makes the difference?

A. An assassination is a politically-motivated murder. It's not about social status -- it's about whether you're a political leader of some kind. MLK was assassinated. Tupac was murdered.

A. Assassination generally refers to the killing of a public figure for political, military or religious reasons. Murder (which can be premeditated and often is - the poster above is incorrect) is the crime of killing someone. The difference between the two terms appears to be steeped primarily in motive, not the actual act.

Was Abraham Lincoln's assassination a long term cause to the failure of Reconstruction?
Q. After Lincoln's assassination, why did Reconstruction fail? I was thinking it was because of the weak leadership after Lincoln. I'm also looking for long term causes to the failure of Reconstruction.

A. Largely, yes. While Andrew Johnson tried to implement Lincoln's plan for reconstruction, he wasn't Lincoln, who had been considered a hero for being the President during the Civil War. Distrust of Johnson by the Congress, and the inability of Johnson to inspire any support insured that the government would be split over how to do reconstruction and insured that the south would be resentful of everything. If Lincoln had survived, it would have been unlikely that the Congress could have become as "radical" as it did. Lincoln would have been able to persuade them to accept his plan, probably because Lincoln would have likely supported giving basic civil rights to the emancipated slaves.

The dominant political party after the war was the Republican party, the Radical Republicans.

Also, Union troops were stationed in the South to keep order.

A. As others have said, it is better on Wikipedia. However, two points: 1. Contrary to popular belief, he was not killed in the Senate House. By the time of his death the Senate House had been burned down and was being rebuilt. He was stabbed in the temporary Senate House, which I think was some theatre - don't quote me which building it was though. 2. Mark Antony tried to warn Caesar before he was killed, as he had learned on the plot. He gave Caesar a letter about the plot, which Caesar held whilst walking to the temporary Senate House and whilst signing the false contract (which I am sure you know about). He never actually read the letter - he was planning on doing so after the meeting. A bit ironic really.
