Re: Kathleen Kennedy to step down from Lucasfilm?
Again it's all audience perspective, Luke taught himself to use telekinesis in the Wampa cave, we clearly see him concentrating on the attempt. I didn't get any sense that any outside influence was making him do it. Anakin made all his own choices in the PT, I can see how Palpatine was manipulating him with clever suggestion but none of it even required mind tricks. Anakin was a really unsympathetic character for me, he comes off as a whiny brat without much depth. That's likely a combination of poor writing, acting and directing though. It's why I don't pay much attention to the PT except as fan fiction. The continuity issues with the OT make it hard to line the stories up.
So you think that he leaned telepathy from Obi-Wan explaining mind trick? Interesting, it might be possible. But for telekinesis, the first time he used it was in the Wampa cave. Who taught him that? The Force probably. Also Anakin is good example of the Force guiding someone without them be aware of it.
