55 years since 11/22/63 and we still don?t know all that much about the events that led to the assassination of President Kennedy.

Oh yes we do know, all about the event that led to his death,, racist bigot, protestants killed him because he was catholic and wanted to bring about change with civil rights for African Americans etc etc etc

[Anthony Clayden]

Michael O'Brian,

JFK was not a huge advocate for civil rights, I know it is hard to believe now, but the Kennedy's needed to carry southern democrats, who were not at all in favour of civil rights. Nixon had a better record on civil rights then JFK, up to the election.

Fair point but you have to acknowledge that in 1963 he began to become more outspoken on Civil Rights.

Also, the Civil Rights Act was being worked on by Kennedy?s aids before he was killed. Johnson got it passed but the planning began under Kennedy.

[Anthony Clayden]

I just wanted to make it clear that being catholic had nothing mush to do with civil rights support, if you look at the record on the actual voting record of civil rights, there was a greater percentage support from Republicans then Democrats but it has more to do that the Democrats were much more supported in the south...

?There may have been a conspiracy to kill JFK but I can?t prove it nor can anybody else?.

55 years later and the conspiracy crowd, as demonstrated by this threads comments still revel in speculation, conjecture and pure BS.

Thanks to the internet, I think we know an awful lot about what was going on.  Kennedy may have seen the corruption of his own father.    Maybe he was actually trying to clean house and restore the constitutional requirement that requires government to be accountable to the people that elect them?  Something that hasn't been seen in many many years. 
The firing of Allan Dulles and his promise to destroy the CIA was not a good starting point!  He said  he would end corruption and restore the constitution to its original intent of hold government elected officials accountable to those people that elected them.     The Constitution stated that currency in no circumstance should be based on only  gold or silver like instructed - certainly not paper that is exploding at an alarming rate as debt ceilings get raised yearly!
Organizations in the government that won't answer to the elected representatives are sometimes referred to as shadow governments or the deep state.  These organizations operate above the law and operate alongside of the elected houses.   Like Kennedy, President Trump is facing an unwinnable battle now.  Kennedy was a warning shot by those in power who felt uncomfortable with him at the helm.   Do not rock the boat or face the consequence!

Study a little bit of history and there is a list of events that can fit the pieces together - understand why 80% of people don't trust the MSM now and what has been going on for a very long long time.   Journalists, not news reporters that report facts are the norm now.

Operation Mockingbird:  (see what happened to Nixon!)

There was many reasons why an LNer just happened to be at the right place and the right time, ending up dead as well.    Dead men tell no lies!

Wow.  Talk about speculation and conjecture.  You?ve repeated the same mantra heard repeatedly over the past 55 years.  Unfortunately, not one piece, not one piece of hard nor credible evidence to support one thing you?ve repeated. It?s never ending isn?t it?
