Of course he is concerned that any ideologies that may oppose his can become mainstream or widely known. Fifty years ago it was difficult for all viewpoints to come to a national/global stage due to the much slower and innaccessible methods of data distribution. I am sure he hates having to confront or address all the dissenters who disagree with his policies or question things like the validity of his citizenship amongst other points of contention.
