What do you think the leaders of the United States would say about Socrates ideas

Socrates' idea of Government is a perfect republic that is led by a philosopher.

The United States Civil Rights Act of 1964, named in English Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Congressional Law 88-352, 78 United States Statutes at Large 241, enacted on July 2, 1964) is a historic civil and labor law for that country, which was a key piece to prohibit racial discrimination and racial segregation. The Law established a series of mandatory rules for voter registration in the states of the Union, in order to guarantee the right to vote of all citizens and avoid the arbitrariness that in some southern states were used to prevent the vote of The African American population. It also established mandatory rules throughout the country, so that no owner of public access establishments or services (parks, theaters, restaurants, public transport, stadiums, hotels, etc.) could discriminate against people or segregate them on the grounds of "race, color, religion or national origin ", considering that such actions constituted a criminal offense. In education, the law established a procedure to" desegregate "public education and ensure that ethnic differences do not affect equal educational opportunities.1 In labor matters, the law established that it would be considered "illegal employment", any hiring, dismissal or treatment in employment, which implies a discrimination based on "race, color, religion, sex, or national origin" (years later it would be added age over 40 years), establishing a summary procedure to punish the offense and restore the affected worker in the position of work from which he was excluded. Finally, the law created the Commission for Equal Employment Opportunities (EEOC).
