Didn’t Richard M. Nixon go to Palm Beach to pay homage to JFK about this time too 48 years ago?

Nixon met with Kennedy but it sure wasn’t to pay homage. Kennedy was begging him to back off and not challenge the election results “for the good of the country”.

politics have strange bedfellows.

don’t forget nixon and democrat john connally (the texas gov. that got shot with JFK). nixon wanted connally to be president after nixon’s second term.

After Washington (the only true great president because he didn’t want the job), Politicians have used the constitution as a foundation for their own cravings for power. And it didn’t matter how they got there. And no current party is un-stained. And the military has been abused as a tool for their ego building.

Nixon and Kennedy were friends in the House of Representatives
