Imagine the world today if he was never assassinated in Dallas on Nov 22, 1963. Please share your thoughts about former President John Fitzgerald Kennedy.

JFK is an overrated hack due to the revered status of martyrdom in American culture and gently caress the personality cult that follows the Kennedy family around and gently caress dynastic politics in general. HTH.

It was 52 years ago today that President Kennedy finally got it through his head that the people of Dallas didn't like him.

JFK represents the pivotal moment in american history where a democracy was subverted and replaced with an authoritarian regime.

LBJ was a good president, and so was Nixon, so I'm guessing there'd have been minimal effect on history had he not not been assassinated. If anything, things might've turned out worse.

Not to get all serious here but

Why do we focus on WHO killed kennedy and not why?

If oswald did it (he did) and was heard saying 'i'm a patsy' why don't we try to figure that out

the one thing i don't understand is that the subversive element had nitpicked the actual logistics behind the shooting to death. (lol)

no one every talks about WHY it happened. At this point the HOW is kind of irrelevant

Yeah, actually, gamers in the house forever,
maybe a civil rights activist killed kennedy knowing that the only way to get civil rights legislation through was if notorious rear end in a top hat and dick-shower LBJ made it his agenda and invoked the wishes of a fallen president to ram it through

im surprised i never hear this conspiracy angle because frankly it makes more sense than the mafia or whatever

either oswald was just nuts and a lone actor

or conservatives did it and ushered in 40 years of neocon religious right fuckwittery that has brought us to this mock late USSR state where our awesome new jets explode on the runway and our bridges are collapsing. you could even say JFK whetted their appetites and that's why every black leader was subsequently assassinated but hey.



just look at the results and see who benefits. I'm not saying it is the latter theory but IF oswald was a patsy then that's the most logical alternative. if you're a conspiracy nut then I assume you've already concluded option 1 is bunk so therefore it must be option 2 and what 'why' is there to investigate?
