Some here may not know the Kennedy “Camelot” legend (?) was fabricated After his death. http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2013/11/12/how-jackie-kennedy-invented-the-camelot-legend-after-jfk-s-death.html

Here's something I just found out, that makes me think that Lyndon Johnson was responsible for Kennedy's assassination:

-Johnson found out three days before that he was getting dumped from the 1964 ticket for Terry Sanford of North Carolina. From the wikipedia bio of Terry Sanford:

Governor Sanford was a close political ally of President John F. Kennedy, a fact that disturbed some North Carolina Democrats who were suspicious of Kennedy's Catholicism.[15] According to President Kennedy's personal secretary Evelyn Lincoln, Sanford would have been Kennedy's choice for vice president on the 1964 Democratic ticket, had Kennedy lived. In her 1968 book Kennedy and Johnson she reported that President Kennedy told her that Lyndon B. Johnson would be replaced as Vice President. Lincoln wrote of that November 19, 1963, conversation just three days before Kennedy's assassination:[6][16]

As Mr. Kennedy sat in the rocker in my office, his head resting on its back he placed his left leg across his right knee. He rocked slightly as he talked. In a slow pensive voice he said to me, 'You know if I am re-elected in sixty-four, I am going to spend more and more time toward making government service an honorable career. I would like to tailor the executive and legislative branches of government so that they can keep up with the tremendous strides and progress being made in other fields ... I am going to advocate changing some of the outmoded rules and regulations in the Congress, such as the seniority rule. To do this I will need as a running mate in sixty-four a man who believes as I do.' ... I was fascinated by this conversation and wrote it down verbatim in my diary. Now I asked, ... 'Who is your choice as a running-mate?' He looked straight ahead, and without hesitating he replied, 'At this time I am thinking about Governor Terry Sanford of North Carolina. But it will not be Lyndon.'

-Under the pretext of uniting different factions of the Democrat Party, Johnson lured Kennedy into the Kill Zone.

I never heard this part before. I believe it was LBJ and Bush, but it is nothing more than my own personal suspicion.

JFK went to Dallas, that day, because even with LBJ's great voter FRAUD machine, they were going to lose Texas, in the next election and THAT is part of why JFK went there.

Hell, even the N.Y. Times was against JFK and had nasty, anti-Kennedy pieces on the front page.
