“Some here may not know the Kennedy “Camelot” legend was fabricated after his death”
Probably most don’t realize that the Camelot theme began after his assassination.
The idea of Camelot was on the public mind at the time because of the hit Broadway show that ran during the Kennedy administration. And it was a favorite of Jackie Kennedy’s.
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.'
IIRC....Ask not what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country....was plagiarism. Hope my memory is right on this.
I hated the Kennedys and the entire Camelot thing was a PR stunt.
The Trumps are NOTHING like the Kennedys.
