I also believe that people who support liberty are greater men then thoose who don't.
Well, again, Caesar was not a detractor of individual liberties.

I wouldn't doubt it. The Romans hated the idea of Rome as a Kingdom (remember they had several kings before the Republic). So Caeser of course did not want to label himself King. I'm sure I'll be corrected if I am wrong on this.
Caesar himself said "Caesarem se, non regem esse" (My name is Caesar, not king)
