The irony of naming this Cicero is not lost on this student. A few more relevant details on Marcus Tullius Cicero: He was decapitated by Marc Antony's soldiers at age 63 for opposing the Second Triumvirate, sorta (that period of Roman history is very complicated). He was a noted orator and loved by the people, but loved his own speeches and voice more. His words fill all classical students with a mix of awe and dread for their complexity and length. The tricks and skills he invented in oratory are still used today. Any Obama speech is littered with the tropes Cicero is credited to have invented nearly 2000 years ago. That FB is claiming that Cicero was at any time a man that cared for the plebs and did not use them for his own gains is laughable. None of the Romans cared truly for the plebs, not even the plebeians themselves, I think. It's pronounced 'Ki-Ker-o', not 'Sis-er-o', by the by.
