Total BS. If LBJ as VP nomniee was so power hungry to be president, why didn't he have Kennedy killed during the 1960 election? If he was so power mad, why didn't he kill Walter Cronkite before Cronkite killed his prospects for reelection?

These conspiracy BS theories are just that --- all BS.

One man killed JFK. That was a crazy little Commie loser named Lee Harvey Oswald. Just like a crazy loser named Hinkley almost killed Reagan with the cameras rolling all in full sight. And before that, a couple of other crazies tried to kill Ford out on San Fransisco.

Crazies do crazy things. Sane people can't understand their motives.

There was no conspiracy. Not sexy. No money to be made from that fact. But it is a fact none the less.

See my link above.

I believed LHO was the sole shooter too but the reality of the second shooter is obvious to me after seeing the wound develop in slow motion. The trajectory of the final headshot does not look to be from behind but from the left. I'm beginning to think the "Grassy Knoll" theory is BS.

“One man killed JFK....a crazy little Commie loser named Lee Harvey Oswald....There was no conspiracy. Not sexy.”

Agreed, end of discussion. May have been those who wanted JFK dead, but only Oswald pulled the trigger. Fifty years later, it’s time to put it to rest.

FWIW, I remember where I was that day when the news came.

“Sane people can’t understand their motives.”

I agree with that, although of all you mention Oswald might have had the most sensible motive, him being a Commie and JFK and anti-Commie and all.

Do you think that the MSM’s refusal to blame Kennedy’s murder on a COMMUNIST and COMMUNISM and instead trying to pin in on conservative Americans who opposed Kennedy led to
these conspiracy theories?

Or was it that Oswald himself was immediately murdered? (By a person who was either in on one or another of the myriad conspiracies or just another loose cannon.)

Or is it just a continuation of the Kennedy mystique?

> no conspiracy

Proof of conspiracy is Jack Ruby’s immediate murder of Oswald.

We’ve got to remember buddy, the House Select Committee on Assassination even delved into this issue:

“(2) CIA personnel abroad.—Turning to particular allegations, the committee investigated the statement of former CIA employee James Wilcott, who testified in executive session that shortly after the assassination of President Kennedy he was advised by fellow employees at a CIA post abroad that Oswald was a CIA agent who had received financial disbursements under an assigned cryptonym. Wilcott explained that he had been employed by the CIA as a finance officer from 1957 until his resignation in 1966. In this capacity, he served as a fiscal account assistant on the support staff at a post abroad from June 1960 to June 1964…On the day after President Kennedy’s assassination, Wilcott claimed he was informed by a CIA case officer that Oswald WAS AN AGENT. He further testified he was told that Oswald had been assigned a cryptonym and that Wilcott himself had unknowingly dispursed payments for Oswald’s PROJECT. (HSCAR, pp. 198-199) (Emphasis added)”
