It was a put up job to prove to the people that Caesar did not want to be a king. This meant that Caesar, as dictator-for-life, could have and exercise all the powers of a king, and the people of Rome (who had a history of anti-monarchism since the days of Tarquin) would not think of him as a king.

As we see from later scenes with the Roman mob, they are indeed thick enough to fall for this kind of Propaganda, and it is only a few (like Brutus and Cassius) who can see through it. Unfortunately, this kind of political machination is as effective now as it was then.
