One theory is that, JFK having received the presidency in 1960 from the hand of Sam "Momo" Giancana of the Chicago Mob, when he and RFK damaged the Cosa Nostra with the Joseph Valachi papers and testimony, "Momo" and the boys sent Lee Harvey Oswald to repossess it.
My own theory is that it was LBJ; other people like Nikita Khruschev. I can't wait for the day that that affair is finally elucidated -- all I know is that the LBJ and his Warren Commission have pissed on our heads for 45 years and told us it's raining.

These are enormous questions of power and right. Let's listen to people who are warning us about electoral fraud.
Not to worry, a bunch of freepers have assured us that despite being a Massachuttes Democrat elected by mobsters and the same Chicago machine that produced Obama, JFK was "more conservative than today's Republicans".
So once elcted, JFK's support for the Nuclear Test Ban Treaty, opposition to Israel creating nuclear weapons, massive new federal funding for education, federally provided medical care for the elderly, economic aid to rural regions, government intervention to halt the recession, abolishing the mandatory death sentence for first degree murder, and producing the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 that caused an explosion in third world immigrants with no skills (written by his brother Ted on JFK's request) was all far more "conservative" than anything you'd get from Michele Bachmann or Paul Ryan.

And these are the same "conservatives" who constantly accuse the GOP of being nancy staters while applauding JFK's legacy.
