For all his faults,he served his country as a sailor,and as a statesmen. No good deed goes unpunished. The Warren Commission, Evil to the core.

In the last months of his life JFK was received like a rock star almost every where he went. And it was the same in Texas. Almost a million people came to see JFK on the day he was murdered. Kennedy won Texas in 1960, and he needed to win it again in 1964 if he wanted to be elected.

I wonder what legacy JFK would have left if God's Providence would have let him live for a successive, second-tern presidency. He more than likely would have pulled the US forces out of Vietnam around 1963-64 and initiated historical civil rights legislation that would not need to have waited for later enactment as in the case of Lyndon Johnson. Possibly he would have carried on a more pragmatic realpolitik with the then Soviet Administration under Kruschev while never compromising on the security of the US or it's European allies. I suppose this is just speculation from the 'What If' school of history but it is interesting to project possible trajectories for US domestic and foreign policies if JFK had been spared the assassin's bullet.

"I shouted out: Who killed the Kennedys?
Well, after all, it was you and me."

Anyone with a brain could predict this one.
Back then knowing little of politics but reading
of the hatred that abounded in America and in Texas
in particular. I'm saying to my myself and to others,
why go there - don't go there JFK but go he went and
met with what I deemed enevitable. Stupid beyond belief.

I suppose he had a lot of death threats during his presidency. There were so many jealous of his authentic power, God love him.

President Kennedy also said "If anyone really wants to assassinate the President,.." there is nothing anybody can do about it..." I don't know which book it's in and I am not going to go looking through my Library. If I come across it, I'll let you know....."
