I realize that delving into the world of assassination research and a belief in a conspiracy will lead some to brand me as an extremist or a nut, but the facts I have uncovered are so compelling that I must make the case that Lyndon Baines Johnson had John Fitzgerald Kennedy murdered in Dallas to become president himself and to avert the precipitous political and legal fall that was about to beset him.

When Lodge was in his eighties, he served vigorously as the chairman of Ronald Reagan’s campaign for President in Connecticut, a post I had recruited him for as the Northeast regional director.
Lodge had done Kennedy’s dirty work coordinating a campaign with the CIA to assassinate Catholic Vietnamese President Diem. I couldn’t resist asking John Lodge about his brother. “Did you ever ask your brother who really killed Kennedy?” I said.

His lips spread in a tight grin. “Cabot said it was the Agency boys, some Mafiosi,” he looked me in the eye . . . “and Lyndon.”
“Did your brother know in advance?” I asked.
Lodge took a sip of his Manhattan.“He knew Kennedy wouldn’t be around to fire him. LBJ kept him at his post so he could serve his country.”

I have thought that Johnson was behind the assassination for years.
that rings a Bell but it is whirling in my head like a helicopter
Ancient astronaut theorists believe that aliens killed JFK with a crystal skull that they brought from Stonehenge at the time when Nostradamus was building a nuclear reactor with Leonardo da Vinci and some aliens who were whizzing past Roswell New Mexico on their way to Area 51 where that guy with the weird hair was learning for the very first time what barbers did for a living. Just sayin, cuz the New World Order uses that as a cover story for the real truth which is ...
I was only three years old and can’t remember killing Kennedy but I will take your word for it.
Didn't they try to find some good for you and me?
it was preordained
I think that LBJ was in on it, but I think the Democrat party was also in on it. We find out now that JFK had a drug problem. He was having an affair with a communist agent. He was very sexually active and becoming indiscreet. LBJ was in on it, but the Democrat party tightened up the JFK loose end. And without the Vietnam War, everything might have turned out just fine for the Democrats.
But could you have fired 3 shots in six seconds hitting the target twice?
You might have something there.
LBJ: “Who can we get to do the job?”
Conspirator #2: “We’ve got a guy just back from the USSR. His name is Oswald. Everyone will think he’s a nut, but he can do it. We’ll put another shooter in a second location to make sure.”
Right. Having seen the conspiracy nonsense with the 9/11 “Truther” movement, I’d put this in the same category.
I heard that a couple days after the assasination.
I just did not know what to think, I hope it is false.
I’d say its not impossible. I’ll tell you this, actually visiting the book depository building made plain to me two things. Dealy Plaza is a very small space, just an intersection of city streets really. Second, the shots were not long shots by any means. A practiced Marine rifleman could have made those shots most of the time, IMHO.
The problem with these theories is figuring out who with power to preserve DIDN’T want John Kennedy murdered.
