JFK Jr. was the love child of Gianni Agnelli. His mom slept with him in early 1960 and JFK Jr. was the result of that incident. I wish more people cared about stuff like this because we've all been lied to and played for saps.
in 1959 my grandfather had to pick up a politiian in bloomington illinois to take him to a political event in springfield . half way to springfield he said he was hungry , and asked if they could stop to get something to eat. grandpa said they stopped at a elkhart restaurant and went inside. grandpa said the odd thing was that nobody in the place even knew who he was. three years later, he was shot dead in dallas , and people were crying in the streets.
I think it's funny as hell how so many people get so mad at the comments on YouTube. Don't they have sense enough to know that the people who post outrageous comments absolutely THRIVE on people responding to them. If somebody says JFK was a dumbass or that he was the best president ever, just ignore them and get on with your life. You're not going to change their mind anyway.
I love how people on YouTube can get so upset over comments made by other users. If I said that JFK was the best president we ever had, somebody would launch into a raging diatribe about how he was a dumbass. If I said Kennedy was a do-nothing moron, somebody else would jump all over it. Granted, most folks have sense enough/enough of a life to ignore outrageous comments. After all, the people posting them thrive on the responses they get.
Also in this current election cycle we have Maxine Waters and Charlie Rangel being investigated for inproperly spending tax payer funds and Pelosi refuses to call them before the full house for a verdict. By the way have you heard that all the charges against Tom Delay have been dropped or thrown out. Couple that with the fact that Durbin, Dodd, Reid, Boxer were all in bed with abramoff as well. It wasn't just Republican. Learn your facts!!!
@thebig1 FYI, Facts: Dems were proven clean. No indictments. Yet the Abramoff scandal convicted WH officials, J.S. Griles & D. Safavian, Rep. Bob Nev + 9 lobbyists & Congressional aides – all GOP. Abramoff’s key coconspirators were ex-CRNC members he had schemed with since being its chairman & extended to the WH after being a member of Bush's ‘01 Transition Advisory Team. Abramoff's records & e-mails listed 485 lobbying contacts with WH officials over 3 ys, including 10 with Rove. Corruption!
Reagan was an atrocious president who bankrupted America, turning it from the largest creditor nation to the largest debtor nation within about 6 years. More personal & small business bankruptcies were filed under Reagan's stewardship than ever before in history. If all deficits from Washigton thru Carter were added up they still would not match that which Ronnie managed to build during his tenure in office. He violated the law in the Iran-Contra/BCCI scandal as well, disgracing the office.
Sorry buddy your thinking of Jiummy Carter not Reagan. America had more money than it ever had before under Reagan. It is true though that Bush 41 and Clinton because of a GOP CONGRESS had an actual surplus though.
Sorry, but you're a Big Zero when it comes to history. America did NOT have "more money" under Reagan - just some among those in the top 1% richest, much to the dismay of the other 99% of us, owing to Ronnie's MASSIVE defiict spending that bankrupted the U.S. economy after his Trillion-dollar carte-blanche giveaway to military industrialists. Real income for middle Americans declined under Reagan. More personal & small business bankruptceis were filed in his term than ever before. He stunk.
You are sick and with no knowledge of history. Reagans deficits in the 80's ended communism and the Soviet threat, alowing for peace and prosperity and surpluses in the 90's. He ranks as one of the greatest presidents in history and a great man too.
Reagan was a fiscal disaster who bankrupted the economy with vast military contractual giveaways in a reckless trillion-dollar carte blanche run on the public treasury. A genial, affable old fart with Alzheimer's already evident, he presided over a vast array of corrupt underlings that produced a huge division between the top 1% whose wealth & power grew exponentially & the rest of us who filed personal & small biz bankruptcies in record numbers. I liked Ron's personality, hated his presidency.
Bigjoetube: Unable to hold your own in any factual debate, you irrationally lash out with false unfounded accusations & then cravenly run & hide to live our your fantasy world of Ronald Reagan's presidency, safely in denial. Ron Reagan was a Hollywood prop, a smiling, albeit befuddled old coot who could read his lines & not much more, while those he fronted for destroyed America's economy & social services security net, while violating international law in the BCCI / Iran / Contra scandal.
@WALRU11 Ouch...you're hurting St. Ronnie's memory with all those pesky facts! Yes, Reagan's voodoo economic policies were the beginning of the long downward spiral for America's middle-class. From which we may never recover.
True. Since JFKs death the U.S. workers real wage has fallen, family income has stagnated, the gap between rich & poor has widened, & productivity growth (the engine for economic progress) has fallen to less than 1/2 its historic ave. Under Reagan deficits soared to record heights, the natl debt doubled as a % of the economy, the 80s had the slowest growth of any post-WW II decade, most of the nation's income gains went to the top 1% of HHs & his policies caused massive damage internationally
Peace?! Reagan altered IMF & World Bank policy to usher in "structural adjustment" that decimated Latin Am causing per person income to shrink for a decade. With the Cold War as a pretext for intervention, he funded & supported horrific violence against Central Am civilians: Guatemalan genocide by Reagan's ally, Gen. Rios Montt, mass murder of Salvadorans by Reagan-funded death squads & the attempted coup in Nicaragua via illegal funding of the Contras via proceeds of illegal arms sales to Iran.
@WALRU11 LOL Under Reagan We had the highest economic growth ever seen up to his presidency. He used the exact supply side economic policy as Kennedy. You obviously dont know history. Lol you probably voted for Obummer too ROFL.
@ltkhokie1 You are grossly in error. Reagan BANKRUPTED the U.S. economy with supply-side "voo-doo" economics, deregulation., & more deficit spending than all prior administrations COMBINED. JFK's cuts stipulated industry investment in r&d & re-tooling rather than cuts to enrich C-level execs ala Ron, + JFK's cuts aided the middle-class to stimulate economy. HE had the economic growth, not Ron whose false #s came from a trillion-dollar giveaway to military contractors in his1st 5 yrs.
@WALRU11 Lol thank you for the "history" lesson. He didnt bankrupt the country, as real history shows. Reagan did run up the debt to out compete the soviet union whom collapsed after reagan. There was record job growth under reagan and record "bull rush stock market boom. And please dont throw out b.s. non factual statements like "false numbers that came from a trillion dollar giveaway to military contractors"
@ltkhokie1 Reagan did indeed bankrupt America, turning it from the largest creditor to largest debtor nation within 6 yrs. More bankruptcies were filed under his rule than ever before. He broke the law in the Iran-Contra/BCCI scandal, disgracing the office. The USSR did not collapse from Ron's arms race. JFK predicted its demise in 1961 owing to its disastrous centralized farm policies & systemic flaws. Gorby ended communism, not befuddled old Ron who read his script & rode out the role.
@ltkhokie1 FYI: When Ron left office, he had bloated the military budget to a staggering 43% increase over the total expenditure during the height of the Vietnam War, thus tripling the natl debt. In his 1rst 5 yrs weapons funding surpassed a trillion dollars. In real terms, DOD budget authority for weapons procurement increased 95% during the 1980-85 FY period. This insanity almost led to nuclear war in Nov. 1983. Who ended the Cold War? Not Reagan, but Soviet reformist Mikhail Gorbachev.
@WALRU11 Reagan forced Gorbachev into concessions he didn't want to make time and time again. Fact is in 1983 the Soviets saw their military advantage slipping and knew that Reagan meant what he said so they tried various things including attack afganistan and messing with Poland. Your just spewing liberal talking points that have no place in reality.
@thebig1 Reagan upped weapons procurement by 95% with severe economic repercussions - for us. When he left office the U.S. natl debt was $3 trillion. If Ron’s anti-Red rhetoric & policies were so powerful, why did they fail to end communism in countries like China, Cuba, & North Korea? Answer: because, Gorbachev unilaterally ended the Cold War - stating the USSR would no longer interfere in the domestic policies of Eastern Europe, underscored by his withdrawing Soviet forces from Afghanistan.
I agree but if he had more time Kennedy may also have been a great President, both should be credited with the demise of Soviet Communism, a major achievement we did not end up in a nuclear war.
@thebig1 JFK saved the world from near certain nuclear annihilation, built sustained economic growth, launched our space program, established aid for the mentally retarded, initiated the Peace Corps, set the groundwork for passage of the CIvil Rights Act, maintained the peace (refusing to commit U.S. soldiers to combat roles In Vietnam while ordering their withdrawal. Reagan racked up massive deficits, launched covert illegal arms dealings, invasion of foreign countries, & bankrupted the U.S.
@WALRU11 You really have a distorted view of history my friend. Would you like another history lesson? I'll give you two Kennedy was good friends with Richard Nixon and JFK was Center/Right in his political dealings if you go back and truely study his history. As for Reagan he won the Cold War, Created over 21 million new jobs, because of him we have missile defense, under Reagan we had the longest period of peacetime economic growth. These are documented facts not lies like you just spit out.
@thebig1 FACTS: Under Ron, the U.S. economy & productivity grew much more slowly than under JFK, less than even the postwar ave. annual rate of +3.6%. Job growth rate in the 80s was lower than in the 60s. Unemployment rates: under RR 5.2%; JFK/LBJ 3.5%. Under JFK worker’s earnings & corporate profits reached their highest levels in history. Under RR, median family purchasing power was paltry compared to what JFK's 60s earned them, & real weekly wages for non-supervisory workers rapidly declined.
@thebig1 More facts: At the end of Ron's 2 terms the poverty rate remained @ almost 13%. Under JFK's boom it was almost halved. Ron’s tax cuts never came close to matching his supply-side rhetoric. In fact they busted the fed budget. The deficit soared from 2.7% of GDP in '80 to 6% of GDP in 83- history's largest peacetime deficit & was still 5% of GDP in 86. FYI: JFK was civil to Nixon, who came to loath his '60 victor. JFK ran center/right in '60 & elected, implemented progresive policies.
@thebig1 Ron lied. His tax cuts did not "encourage work effort, savings, & investment." Unemployment rose, net investment declined & savings withered. His '80s real investment biz cycle annual increase was 2.5%. Clinton’s: 5.9%. As Ron boosted payroll taxes the bottom 40% of HH’s paid more of their income in taxes in ‘88 than they had in '80, while the top 1%, saw their tax rate drop 5%. Programs for the poor: cut 54%. Housing aid: - 80.7%; job training - 68.3%; aid for sr. housing: -47.1%
@thebig1 The alleged "facts" you claim to be "documented" are out of some fantasyland fairytale right wing revisionist playbook. Your recitation of "facts" in fact only renders huge belly laughs. Reagan's record, as you & the revisionist Right, portray it, is a total fabrication. What I have produced for you are the true numbers as cited by the Brookings Institute, mainstream economists like Barry Bosworth & Gary Burtless, & econ prof. John Miller of Wheaton College. Reagan was a disaster.
@WALRU11 Notice if you will those are LIBERAL INSTITUTIONS who have ever reason to ruin the reputation of Reagon. Thiose are not credible sources clown. Try again.
@thebig1 Re-Load, you right wing pot-shot hack. Cheap slurs cannot negate the statistical facts which I have related to you. Reagan's legacy is disastrous economic inequity unprcedented in U.S. history until his "vood-doo economics" spawn, Bush & Cheney, escalated U.S. indebtedness into the trillions. Facts, not your fantasies have ruined Reagan's reputation. He was an affable old buffoon who read his scripted lines, napped often, & smiled broadly, while daily lapsing deeper into Alzheimer's.
@WALRU11 Your a funny little boy arent you. Here's a fact for you a president I'm sure you like Osama Obama has spent more in under 2 years then all the other presidents combined. Also you talk about Reagan reading Scripted lines HA HA its a fact known by all that Reagan wrote over 80% of his speeches while president. By the the tell me who is the current president using a TELE PROMPTER FOR EVERY SPEECH HE DOES? Thats right its your boy OBAMA!!!!
@thebig1 Losing the argument decisively, you sidestep by attacking Obama, who is trying to clean up the Bush-Cheney meltdown. Look, economically, with his military spending spree, Ron did more to destroy capitalism in this country than he did to hurt Soviet communism - & his recruiting Osama bin Laden for a global gathering of terrorists to destabilize the oil-rich Muslim-dominant southern Soviet republics did more to destroy security here at home & abroad than any threat during the Cold War.
@WALRU11 I'm not losing the argument at all. Your " facts " on Reagan are baseless. Also one cannot deny the damage Obama has done. Everything he has done has cost working americans there jobs, has severly hurt there retirment, and with the take over of banks, car companies, the student loan program, the healthcare and much more he seeks to make make government God and people don't want that. Get ready for massive losses in the house and senate.
@thebig1 My facts are not baseless. I sourced them to award-winning economists, while yours are pulled out of the rightwing revisionist fantasy playbook. You lose. If you want to discuss damage, the facts are: Bush increased the U.S. national debt 85.6%, from $5.7 trillion to a whopping $10.6 trillion, & increased our trade deficit 105%. Wall Street's malfeasance & meltdown was the culmination of the most scandal-ridden administration in history. Obama has huge clean-up to complete.
@WALRU11 Not only did it cost Bush 40,000 votes in the panhandle but later on Gore and his Democratic Lawyers had 41,000 absentee military ballots thrown out. Your a hypocrite!!! Need I remind you that the florida supreme court tried 3 times to hand the election to Gore when it was clear all the votes for Gore had been counted. Finally Obama did inherit a deficit but so did Bush in 2001. Furthuremore Obama's spending as I said has tripled the deficit and over 4 million have lost their jobs.
@thebig1 I'm no defender of Obama because like Hoover's Reconstruction Finance Corporation in '36, he bailed out Wall St. w/o attendant oversight & regulations. But the meltdown - estimated by insiders to be between $20-to-30 trillion - will take decades to repair thanks to bank & corporate malfeasance permitted under the complicit, corrupt Bush administration. The Republican record since Reagan has been one of scandal, deficits, govt intrusiveness, war, Am. job losses. & class inequity.
@WALRU11 All those things you mentioned at the end are things Democrats are doing RIGHT NOW. By the way what party always plays the race card? What party said in 2000 if you elect Bush black churches will be burned down? What party truely wants giovernment interaction in our lives? Thats right THE DEMOCRATS. Dud you are nothing more than a political hack for the Democrats!!!!
@thebig1 "What party always plays the race card?" Republicans. To defeat Dukakis, Bush Sr enacted an egregiously racist campaign exploiting William Horton (changing his name to "Wille" & running his mug shot with the claim, "every suburban mother's greatest fear." Bush jr. smeared McCain in S. Carolina, hiring workers to make race-baiting phone calls asserting McCain had a “black child.” Reagan launched his pres. campaign in Miss. touting "states rights" - a euphemism for white supremacy.
@WALRU11 States rights means states rights ok. Reagan did alot to help minorities by providing them job training and job placement. I know thats not the kind help YOU PEOPLE want but its the the help that will turn you into productive citizins and not leaches.
@thebig1 FYI, you arrogant, impudent know-nothing. "States rights" in 80s MS meant resistance to fed enforcement of black civil rights. Reagan chose Philadelphia MS to launch his campaign & proclaim "states rights" as an implicit message to segregationists. It was there that townsmen had murdered 3 civil rights workers – Chaney, Schwerner, & Goodman. Reagan "did a lot to help minorities?" Please! In 8 yrs he met with the CBC once, gutted the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights & cut EEOC staff.
@WALRU11 First off the CBC is a bunch of Liberal racist hacks. Also its people like you who choose to live in the past that irk me and other forward thinking conservatives. This isnt the 1960's and only a few stupid ignorant people still wear white sheats over their head. Much has been to wrong the ills of slavery but if we are to to as you want we would be on all fours crawling around picking cotton with our teeth. I'm not going to grab the ankles for anyone especialy racist blacks like you!!!
@thebig1 You're rabid almost completely incoherent rant is both racist & pathetic. So the Congressional Black Caucus are "racist hacks," huh? And I'm a "racist black?" You're sick. FYI, you pathetic moron. I'm white. And unlike you & your party of elitist racist neo-Nazis, I support equal opportunity for people of all races, relgions - yes, even black Musliims - colors & creeds. Reagan's record on civil rights stunk, & Bush (father & Son) have a long history of racist behavior.
@thebig1 You hypocrite Repubs have no memory. To remind you of your recent past: rigged elections (proven in court), Enron, Abramoff, criminal neglect during 9-11-01, Dusty Foggo, Duke Cuningham, Mark Foley, outing Valerie Plame, firing U.S. attorneys, patient neglect at Walter Reed, FEMA failures during Katrina, NSA’s warrantless wiretaps, Bush lying about WMD’s in Iraq, SWIFT surveillance, the subprime mortgage bubble collapse engendered by govt collusion, & an 85.6% increase in the natl debt
@WALRU11 Valerie was outed by Richard Armaitage not by Rove and not by Libby. The special prosecuter proved it was Armitage and that Colin Powell knew it was Armitage all along. U.S, Attorneys serve at the President's will...I'll point you to the fact THAT BILL CLINTON FIRED SOME OF HIS WHEN HE WAS PRESIDENT. Florida was not rigged by the GOP but by the Democrats. The networks in 2000 called Florida for Gore before the REPUBLICAN PANHANDLE was even included. That calling cost Bush 40,000 votes.
@thebig1 Plame was outed in as payback against Ambassador Joe Wilson who charged that the White House manipulated intelligence to make a case for invasion. Libby testified that Cheney advised him that Bush had authorized him to disclose the relevant portions of the NIE to Judith Miller." Libby was convicted, taking the fall for Cheney & Bush. Bush commuted his sentence. The U.S. Attorneys were fired by Bush for political reasons to halt their investigations into G.O.P. corruption.
@WALRU11 PLame was outed by Armitage go look it up. Colin Powell knew Armitage outed Plame and kept his mouth shut while Libby and Cheney got the unjustied blame. The U.S. Attorneys again since your liberal bias over looked it SERVE AT THE WILL OF THAT PRESIDENT IN OFFICE. Clinton fired a number of U.S. Attorneys that had served under Bush 41. Bush 43 fired those Attorneys that had served under Clinton. The Attorneys Bush 43 fired were liberal hacks going after a Republican president!!!
@thebig1 They work at Pres discretion, but, these Rove-engineered firings were a Nixon "Sat. Night Massacre" as the Attorneys came from swing states or were investigating / prosecuting corrupt GOP figures. Lam (S. CA), nailed Duke Cunningham & indicted ex#3 CIA honcho Dusty Foggo. Charlton (AZ), was closing in on GOP Rep. Renzi. Cummins (E. Ark), replaced by Rove aide Tim Griffin, was after MO’s corrupt Gov. McKay, (W. WA), refused to falsely allege fraud when the GOP gov lost in 04. Etceera.
@thebig1 What fantasyland are you inhabiting? "Libbey & Cheney got the unjustified blame?" Please! They ran Armitage who is old-school CIA & GOP & (like Shackley, Secord, Singlaub, & North) has run dirty ops for GHW Bush for decades including drug & gun trafficking, assassination, terrorism, money laundering, etc. Plame's outing was a Bush/Cheney/Rove vengeance scheme. They exposed a CIA agent to possible assassination when her husband exposed Bush's lies about WMDs. Hint: they wanted oil.
@thebig1 No one buys your pathetic attempt to scapegoat Armitage as some rogue agent. Armitage, who ran ops for the Bush CIA regime since the 1960s did not do this independently. The notion is ludicrous. He did it at Bush's command as payback against Joe Wilson because Plame's husband exposed the administration's lies alleging WMDs in Iraq. Bush-Cheney, both Big Oil, had means, motive, opportunity, & a pattern of vicious vengeance against political enemies. They wanted Iraq's oil. Wise up.
@WALRU11 They wanted Iraq's oil? Give me a break pal. If the object was to get the oil why didn't we get it? I'll tell you why because that was never the objective. Furthuremore the Democrats would have alerted the media and that would have been it. Armitage was never a bush favorite AT ALL he was a liberal thaty worked under Powell. Powell knew he did it but Powell let the spec Pros believe Libby and Cheney did it. Thosae are the facts go look them up clown.
@thebig1 FYI: Hussein's overthrow prompted rewriting the Iraqi constitution to permit 70% of its petro deposits to be owned & marketed by Big Oil. Cheney as CEO of Haliburton, negoitiated for purchase of DSN ASA, to make Halliburton the leading firm to route out Iraq's estimated $30 trillion in future oil & gas profits. The reason for Bush-Cheny's war on Afghanistan is that this nation holds the world's richest deposits of lithium, trillions of dollars in profits for U.S. new energy makers.
@WALRU11 Tell me then where is the relief at the pump if all of a sudden we own 70% of Iraq's oil? If your statment was true we would have gasoline under a dollar but its still over 3.50 in some parts of the country. If your statment was true and the government owned 70% of it we could easily pay down our dept in a year maybe sooner. The fact is we don't own 70% and no such contract/deal was ever put together by the Bush administration. Again quit lieing please!!!!
@thebig1 The 11/03 US-crafted interim constitution, the “Transitional Administrative Law,” included 100 orders to privatize & sell Iraq’s economy & natural resources, & was called by the Centre for Research on Globalization “the main motive behind the US invasion, occupation, & colonization of Iraq.” The ‘05 constitution lets the govt manage only oil “extracted from present fields” (2000 wells. By contrast Texas has over a million.) thus leaving the restl open to IOCs via commercial contracts.
@thebig1 You're an ignoramus if you believe that supply & demand dictates gas prices at the pump. BP, Chevron, Conoco Phillips, ExxonMobil, & Shell collude in maintaining artificially inflated prices in order to sustain record profits: $656 billion during Bush's term of office. My statements are factual. You hysterically cry "lies" & cravenly choose to live in denial as reality demands a 2nd American Revolution to take back our lives from these trans-natl corporations & their govt toadies.
@thebig1 FYI: Jeb Bush, FL AG K. Harris & Diebold's CEO swung the election to G. Bush by alterting votes via Diebold's GEMS central tally & TSx (DRE) systems – proven in court by BBV founder Bev Harris & software engineers, who won their case, exposing 12 sets of covert commands that switched votes to Bush in FL, UT, PA, CA, & other stares + counterfeit audit records given by GOP officials (many with criminal records) who tried to cover up the fraud with originals found buried in trash bins.
@thebig1 Your last post only evidences the immature nature of your pathetic brain-washed little mind. First, FYI: you assume I like Obama. I do not. But I will concede that he is indisputably Reagan’s superior intellectually & in terms of quality of literary output. Ron's rhetoric was both regrettable & forgettable. “Evil Empire” & “Tear down that wall” are his most memorable statements & both are typical of hack Hollywood B-movie lines, ala this 2nd-rate actor’s career before a microphone.
i live in hyannis now, and its changed so much, i dont even know if this armory still exists?! but we still get all of you kennedy fans every summer, long live jfk!
Priceless history! JFK was such an eloquent & gracious speaker. I enjoy seeing the all the family together on the podium at the end there; what a triumphant moment for them and all of them looking so happy.
JFK is one of my all time favorite Presidents. Tip O'niel mentions in his book that business's would have signs in store windows stating "Irish Need not apply " before the Irish were elected to public office. All nationalities need to be involved in the democratic process and defend their civil liberties, for those who do not will lose it, or even worse their children will have less then they did, for their parents did nothing.
Let us stop looking over our shoulders. We must look straight ahead instead as we move towards a new administration. Tighten your harness', fasten your seat belts for the "One World Order" is right around the corner.
we must all know that there are things that happen in this country that we will never know about. The secret service and those involved will be the only ones. There is also the murder/ suicide (which i doubt) of Marylin Monroe. Many ppl point their fingers at the Kennedy family. Were they involved? Who knows...this is an example of events that the public will just never find out.
Still living, still riggin elections, and still waging war on the innocent, furthering their always insatiable agenda for world government and nazi domination of the global, starting right at home, in the long conquered America, in the white house, with a black heart. Since they were never brought to justice, and the warren report still goes as the official line, justice has not been done, the perpetrators not revealed, they continue to do their dirty work unimpeded - it's all a continuation.
I LOVE this video! I LOVE the Kennedy's, all of them, flaws and all and everything they stand for, I find them all completely fascinating! It's rather difficult to believe that most of this wonderful family is gone, it's so very sad. I find it very difficult to think that now, when our nation needs strong leaders most, there will never be another family quite like the Kennedy's.
Yes, he was the best - despite his brief time in office, a scant thousand days. Review his speech before the Newspaper Guild in April 1961 denouncing secret societies, as well as his June 1963 address at American University opening detante & promoting diversity, plus his speech at Amherst University in Aug. '63 in which he defined the values he sought to realize for all: A world safe not only for democrcy & diversity, but for personal distinction. He was a visionary leader & true statesman.
Walru11- What a load of bullshit! JFK worshipping fools like you need to wipe the stardust from your eyes and start seeing just what a total waste of space your 'hero' really was. You call yourself a liberal and yet you conveniently overlook the macho posturing over the Cuban missile crisis; the total failure to carry out civil rights reform for fear of antagonising racist Dixiecrats; the use of right-wing nuts and Mafia scum in the Bay Of Pigs fiasco, plus the corruption of the 1960 election.
"Macho posturing?" JFK's seeking a diplomatic solution rather than acquiescing to relentless military/CIA demands to bomb Cuba, saved your sorry ass & the rest of the world from annihilation. 6/11/63 he delivered the strongest presidential pro-civil rights declaration since Lincoln, & on Oct. 29, won House Judiciary approval of the Civil Rights act that became law after his death. The Bay of Pigs was set-up by Ike, Nixon, Dulles, & Bush who hired mobsters. The 1960 election was fairly won.
Truly a great man, he will be ever missed. Why can't our presidents of today be so committed and aeriodite as these men that went befor them. Roosevelt, Truman, Ike and Jack!! I think we would be living in a safer and more sound world if Jack had been permitted to accomplish his goals. See you in heaven Jack!

young americans should study their history more carefully jfk won the popular vote and the electoral college therefore won the election fair and square! by the way the illinois results made no difference check your history books regards to a country i greatly admire...... jd ireland
Awesome video! I'm glad to have found such a rare footage on Youtube and watch and listen to a wonderful man speak. Love Jackie and all the Kennedys,too.
And even without Illinois Kennedy would have still win. He got 303 electoral votes. Without Illinois 25 he would have still had 278 electoral votes. It takes 270 to be elected.
Americans have an ability to find hope, and face pain, truthfully, creating new and better systems that enable men to remain free, and improve their lives. Those aren't just spin words JFK speaks, he means it.
Yes. Well, America was murdered on November 22, 1963. Kennedy was the last president who tried to represent the people. Which is why the ruling class killed him of course.
You, my friend, are correct. Grandson of Irish immigrants, JFK suffered from Addison's Disease - a double blow when one lived among WASP eugenicists in Boston like anti-immigration advocate Sen. Henry Cabot Lodge. JFK fought for minorities, writing the book, "A Nation of Immigrants" & placed the moral authority of the presidency behind his call for egalitarian democracy & civil rights. He championed peace, detante & diversity - & yes, that is why the ruling white warmonger elite killed him.
Walru11-what a steaming pile of crap! All of you JFK worshippers ignore some inconvenient facts: his failure to push through civil rights reform for fear of antagonising racist Dixiecrats; his macho posturing during the Cuban missile crisis; his resort to using right-wing lunatics and Mafia scumbags for the illegal Bay Of Pigs fiasco; and his close personal and political relationship with McCarthy. He was little more than a spoilt playboy who couldn't keep his dick to himself.
You historical revisionists with your rightwing screeds fool no one. Your baseless lies are nothing more than posthumous assassination unsupported by impartial historical analysis. Everything you posted is completely false, wothout a shred of truth to it. NONE! 6/11/63 JFK delivered a resounding message for civil rights & on 10/29 won 1st passage of his civil rights bill. He removed Khrushchev's missiles from Cuba without a war. Nixon, NOT JFK hired Rosselli & Giancana. He denounced McCarthy.
I am a black conservative, who grew up as a JFK democrat. I totally agree with everything you said in your post. Except McCarthy, Jack Kennedy was out sick when the vote for censure went down and at the time McCarthy dated Jack's Sister Jean. McCarthy was a great friend to the Kennedys. But overrall, you are on point my friend. Those who killed Jack Kennedy MAY THEY BURN IN HELL! THE KEY WORDS THOSE(MORE THAN ONE NUT)
Despite the Boston Irish backlash, JFK would have (reluctantly) voted to censure McCarthy because "Tailgunner Joe's" excesses had brought about his demise, even tho McCarthy had intially been a family friend. Those who killed JFK (including Hoover, the JCOS, & CIA) also murdered MLKJ & RFK owing to their support of civil rights & opposition to the war in Vietnam. Dr. King's eloquent anti-war address is one of the finest ever rendered regarding that obscene conflict, but it sealed his doom.
I truly believe the CIA had a more greater roll. I think E. Howard Hunt (convicted watergate burgular) was right. LBJ recruited Cord Meyer, Jr. from the CIA to devise a plan to execute the 35th President. E. Howard Hunt had nothing to lose to say that, and it's a known fact that he worked for the CIA in the 60's. FBI knew but had no direct involvement except to cover up the mess. Bobby Kennedy had a big problem with McCarthy chief aide(his name escapes me) but he quit working for McCarthy
Unraveling & tracing back the causes of JFK's murder to its core is an object historical lesson in the steady perversion & ultimate poisoning of American democracy. It is a harrowing study few of us are willing to face, hence the decision to live in denial & accept the obscene consequences rather than demand full disclosure. It was not a simple matter of convergent amoral or illegal para-political interests, but that the system itself has assumed the mask of a cancerous democratic imposter.
You are right.....what bothers me is the people who expoused more men are now saying it was only Oswald. That ticks me off to the point where anytime they are on the disc or hist channels, I turn the tv. Any idiot can see the last shot hit in the right side of the Presdient's temper just missing his right eye. I would like to ask those fools....Did the parkland doctors lied about his wounds? Did that doctor lie about Lyndon Johnson calling Parkland when Oswald was shot?
so I believe you are alluding to Bobby Kennedy's dissatisfation. But alot liberals lost trust in Jack Kennedy because they say he was a coward in not making that vote. Many Liberals didn't trust Jack Kennedy (known historical fact) Jack Kennedy didn't particular like liberals, thats the reason why he lost out on the VP position for the Dem party of 1956. Jack Kennedy was a great pragmatist, thats what made him sooo great and loved.
JFK was right to dislike the type of comfortable 50's liberals who waited until it was opportune to censure McCarthy. Kennedy wished to appear a pragmatist when in fact he was closer to being a revolutionary in the tradition of Jefferson & Madison - which is, of course, why he was assassinated. He battled the Eugenicists, big corporations, CIA, militarists, & social engineering S-R forces perpetuating the establishment of an emerging neo-fascist hegemony over liberated thought and free choice.
your a dumbass he failed to push civil rights through congress because they wouldn't pass a bill. not to mention he was only in office 2 years 10 months, if he would have lived he would have gotten it done.
and btw if you were president what would you have done about the castro situation? it was illegal for castro to take over cuba idiot, we had to do something. oh yea and spoilt isn't a word douchebag! educate yourself then try to debate.. trick

You, Davmor are little more than a sheep. Stupid. Brainwashed. Everything you said about this man was wrong. He saved our asses during the CMC. The Bay of Pigs was planned by Eisenhower/Nixon. Joe McCarthy was 100% RIGHT. After his murder, his killers have resorted to smearing his reputation- thus birthed all the lies about his "womanizing"- in reality, he loved his wife, his kids, was a good human being. Those are the facts. I hope that someday God will show you how big you really are.
Excellent record, very interresting not only for students of America history, but for all the people in the world at that time, who remembers today the magic new period of Kennedy administration and really loved this new president an dhis family.
He did not lose Texas. Lyndon Johnson being his Vice Presidential Nominee assured that, although they only won by 50,000. President Kennedy was elected President fair and square. And no- it never can be proven and it has not been proven and he was elected. If they thought there was fraud they would have investigated. It was not up to Nixon. He could have challenged the vote, but if there was wrongdoing it wouldn't matter what Nixon thought-they would have investigated.
That's true. Nixon could have challenged, but I guess he didn't seem to have problem with JFK winning. Afterall, there would always be another time for him to run and win-which is the exact thing years later.
Never can be proven. Texas was won by 50 thousand votes or so. Illinois was speculation. Nixon did not challenge the results because he knew nothing would come of it and he might want to run for Governor or President someday.
Nixon really won the 1960 election. Voting fraud was found to have occured in both Texas and Illinios. Nixon conceded to allow the nation to heal. Yeah Nixon was really a bad man wasn't he.
1960 and 2000 are different times. Today, honestly, it looks so much more easier to be able to obstruct the voting system and committ vote fraud. The electronic vote is so damn easy to manipulate, which is why I won't be voting electronically come next election.
I agree. I have a hard time believing that nobody within the government would pass up the opportunity. Out of so many money-fueled leaders, I'm sure that someone is getting away with it to protect their own interests. Our economy is geared toward predominately personal (as opposed to community) gain and interests, which goes along with the concept and mentality of individualism..
Gore won the election by 545,000 votes & FL by huge margins - nullified by Katherine Harris' goons double-puncheing tens of thousands of Gore ballots to invalidate them. & in a California Court Bev Harris & engineers proved that Diebold Systems' electronic voting machines had 12 separate sets of hidden software commands that transformed Democratic votes to George Bush & if the voter protested the machine erased the vote. In 1963 democracy was overthrown by bullets; in 2k & 2004, by fake ballots.
Right out of the rightwing revisionist history books, eh? No, you misguided brown shirt, Gore won FL decisively, adding to his 543,816 margin in the national popular vote. FL Guv Jeb Bush & GOP Chairperson & FL sec. of State K. Harris invalidated Gore votes while their minions double-punched & nullified tens of thousands of pro-Gore ballots (among other election crimes), & still Gore was winning in a legitimate recount - until the Republican Supreme Court majority appointed Bush president.
Typical liberal memory of other aspects of the story. Florida Democratic workers and All Gore Lawyers had almost 50,000 Bush military votes thrown out and the networks called Florida before the Pan Handle had stopped voting which according to newspaper recounts and interviews with Pan Handle voters combined with cable network news research also cost Bush over 40,000 votes out in that part of Florida. With that added to Bush's total there never is a question of recount or who really won.
Nixon lost in '60. The GOP stole more votes in non-Cook County Illinois than those Daley stole for the Dems. Texas was won fairly. Nixon's absentee ballots in California were fraudulently inflated to tip the state to him. Nixon opposed a recount because it would have revealed too much of his own party's tampering. As for "allowing the nation to heal?" Please! The s.o.b. conspired to assassinate Kennedy and gain the presidency he insanely coveted. Nixon was a traitor & murderer.
Would it be too much to expect that you put forward something called evidence to support your lunatic conspiracy theories. Yes, Nixon was a traitor and a murderer, but not in relation to the Kennedy assassination. And while we're on the subject, it's funny you never mention your golden boy's responsibility for the murder of Diem in 1963. He was no liberal; he was as much a cold warrior as his close family friend, Joe McCarthy.
JFK had NOTHING to do with Diem's death, which is why your boy Nixon asked E. Howard Hunt in 1971 to alter 1963 State Dept. cables to falsely implicate Kennedy. JFK, in fact, offered Diem safe passage out. But Lodge & Landsdale, working with CIA assets & Vietnamese generals had Diem & his brother-in-law murdered. Aides reported JFK was shocked & visibly upset @ Diem's death. You obvioulsy have NO grasp of history beyond the rightwing revisionist lies you gullibly embrace without fact-checking.
The CIA's Vic Marchetti fingered Hunt as the payoff man in the JFK murder, a jury in 1992 rendered a verdict against Hunt, judging him guilty, & Hunt confessed to it before he died. In 1972, John Dean told Nixon, Hunt demanded $2 million in hush money & Nixon agreed to pay it, saying, "Hunt knows things that can bury us all & " "Tell Ehrlichman this whole group of (Hunt's) Cubans is tied to the Bay of Pigs. " Haldeman said Nixon's "Bay of Pigs" remark was his coded reference to the JFK killing.
davmor1973 - stick to your own British history rather than mucking up ours. Your love of the Nixon era, evident in your chosen moniker "1973" exposes your hideous bias for "Tricky Dick" Nixon, one of the sorriest losers in U.S. history - owned by the mob since 1938, a liar & crook who ordered the assassinations of Mossadeq & Onassis in '54, plotted the killing of Castro in '59 & '60 using mobsters, was complicit in JFK's & RFK's deaths, & when his cover was blown in 1974, resigned in disgrace.
JFK Jr. was the love child of Gianni Agnelli. His mom slept with him in early 1960 and JFK Jr. was the result of that incident. I wish more people cared about stuff like this because we've all been lied to and played for saps.

Reagan was an atrocious president who bankrupted America, turning it from the largest creditor nation to the largest debtor nation within about 6 years. More personal & small business bankruptcies were filed under Reagan's stewardship than ever before in history. If all deficits from Washigton thru Carter were added up they still would not match that which Ronnie managed to build during his tenure in office. He violated the law in the Iran-Contra/BCCI scandal as well, disgracing the office.

Sorry buddy your thinking of Jiummy Carter not Reagan. America had more money than it ever had before under Reagan. It is true though that Bush 41 and Clinton because of a GOP CONGRESS had an actual surplus though.

Sorry, but you're a Big Zero when it comes to history. America did NOT have "more money" under Reagan - just some among those in the top 1% richest, much to the dismay of the other 99% of us, owing to Ronnie's MASSIVE defiict spending that bankrupted the U.S. economy after his Trillion-dollar carte-blanche giveaway to military industrialists. Real income for middle Americans declined under Reagan. More personal & small business bankruptceis were filed in his term than ever before. He stunk.

You are sick and with no knowledge of history. Reagans deficits in the 80's ended communism and the Soviet threat, alowing for peace and prosperity and surpluses in the 90's. He ranks as one of the greatest presidents in history and a great man too.

Reagan was a fiscal disaster who bankrupted the economy with vast military contractual giveaways in a reckless trillion-dollar carte blanche run on the public treasury. A genial, affable old fart with Alzheimer's already evident, he presided over a vast array of corrupt underlings that produced a huge division between the top 1% whose wealth & power grew exponentially & the rest of us who filed personal & small biz bankruptcies in record numbers.

marcostar57 2 years ago 3
True. Since JFKs death the U.S. workers real wage has fallen, family income has stagnated, the gap between rich & poor has widened, & productivity growth (the engine for economic progress) has fallen to less than 1/2 its historic ave. Under Reagan deficits soared to record heights, the natl debt doubled as a % of the economy, the 80s had the slowest growth of any post-WW II decade, most of the nation's income gains went to the top 1% of HHs & his policies caused massive damage internationally
WALRU11 2 years ago
Peace?! Reagan altered IMF & World Bank policy to usher in "structural adjustment" that decimated Latin Am causing per person income to shrink for a decade. With the Cold War as a pretext for intervention, he funded & supported horrific violence against Central Am civilians: Guatemalan genocide by Reagan's ally, Gen. Rios Montt, mass murder of Salvadorans by Reagan-funded death squads & the attempted coup in Nicaragua via illegal funding of the Contras via proceeds of illegal arms sales to Iran.

@ltkhokie1 Reagan did indeed bankrupt America, turning it from the largest creditor to largest debtor nation within 6 yrs. More bankruptcies were filed under his rule than ever before. He broke the law in the Iran-Contra/BCCI scandal, disgracing the office. The USSR did not collapse from Ron's arms race.

@ltkhokie1 FYI: When Ron left office, he had bloated the military budget to a staggering 43% increase over the total expenditure during the height of the Vietnam War, thus tripling the natl debt. In his 1rst 5 yrs weapons funding surpassed a trillion dollars. In real terms, DOD budget authority for weapons procurement increased 95% during the 1980-85 FY period. This insanity almost led to nuclear war in Nov. 1983. Who ended the Cold War? Not Reagan, but Soviet reformist Mikhail Gorbachev.

@WALRU11 Reagan forced Gorbachev into concessions he didn't want to make time and time again.

Your just spewing liberal talking points that have no place in reality.

@thebig1 Reagan upped weapons procurement by 95% with severe economic repercussions - for us. When he left office the U.S. natl debt was $3 trillion. If Ron’s anti-Red rhetoric & policies were so powerful, why did they fail to end communism in countries like China, Cuba, & North Korea? Answer: because, Gorbachev unilaterally ended the Cold War - stating the USSR would no longer interfere in the domestic policies of Eastern Europe, underscored by his withdrawing Soviet forces from Afghanistan.

@thebig1 FACTS: Under Ron, the U.S. economy & productivity grew much more slowly than under JFK, less than even the postwar ave. annual rate of +3.6%. Job growth rate in the 80s was lower than in the 60s. Unemployment rates: under RR 5.2%; JFK/LBJ 3.5%. Under JFK worker’s earnings & corporate profits reached their highest levels in history. Under RR, median family purchasing power was paltry compared to what JFK's 60s earned them, & real weekly wages for non-supervisory workers rapidly declined.
WALRU11 1 year ago
@thebig1 More facts: At the end of Ron's 2 terms the poverty rate remained @ almost 13%. Under JFK's boom it was almost halved. Ron’s tax cuts never came close to matching his supply-side rhetoric. In fact they busted the fed budget. The deficit soared from 2.7% of GDP in '80 to 6% of GDP in 83- history's largest peacetime deficit & was still 5% of GDP in 86. FYI: JFK was civil to Nixon, who came to loath his '60 victor. JFK ran center/right in '60 & elected, implemented progresive policies.

@thebig1 Ron lied. His tax cuts did not "encourage work effort, savings, & investment." Unemployment rose, net investment declined & savings withered. His '80s real investment biz cycle annual increase was 2.5%. Clinton’s: 5.9%. As Ron boosted payroll taxes the bottom 40% of HH’s paid more of their income in taxes in ‘88 than they had in '80, while the top 1%, saw their tax rate drop 5%. Programs for the poor: cut 54%. Housing aid: - 80.7%; job training - 68.3%; aid for sr. housing: -47.1%

The notion is ludicrous. He did it at Bush's command as payback against Joe Wilson because Plame's husband exposed the administration's lies alleging WMDs in Iraq. Bush-Cheney, both Big Oil, had means, motive, opportunity, & a pattern of vicious vengeance against political enemies. They wanted Iraq's oil. Wise up.

@WALRU11 They wanted Iraq's oil? Give me a break pal. If the object was to get the oil why didn't we get it? I'll tell you why because that was never the objective. Furthuremore the Democrats would have alerted the media and that would have been it. Armitage was never a bush favorite AT ALL he was a liberal thaty worked under Powell. Powell knew he did it but Powell let the spec Pros believe Libby and Cheney did it. Thosae are the facts go look them up clown.

@thebig1 FYI: Hussein's overthrow prompted rewriting the Iraqi constitution to permit 70% of its petro deposits to be owned & marketed by Big Oil. Cheney as CEO of Haliburton, negoitiated for purchase of DSN ASA, to make Halliburton the leading firm to route out Iraq's estimated $30 trillion in future oil & gas profits. The reason for Bush-Cheny's war on Afghanistan is that this nation holds the world's richest deposits of lithium, trillions of dollars in profits for U.S. new energy makers.

@WALRU11 Tell me then where is the relief at the pump if all of a sudden we own 70% of Iraq's oil? If your statment was true we would have gasoline under a dollar but its still over 3.50 in some parts of the country. If your statment was true and the government owned 70% of it we could easily pay down our dept in a year maybe sooner. The fact is we don't own 70% and no such contract/deal was ever put together by the Bush administration. Again quit lieing please!!!!

@thebig1 The 11/03 US-crafted interim constitution, the “Transitional Administrative Law,” included 100 orders to privatize & sell Iraq’s economy & natural resources, & was called by the Centre for Research on Globalization “the main motive behind the US invasion, occupation, & colonization of Iraq.” The ‘05 constitution lets the govt manage only oil “extracted from present fields” (2000 wells. By contrast Texas has over a million.) thus leaving the restl open to IOCs via commercial contracts.

@thebig1 You're an ignoramus if you believe that supply & demand dictates gas prices at the pump. BP, Chevron, Conoco Phillips, ExxonMobil, & Shell collude in maintaining artificially inflated prices in order to sustain record profits: $656 billion during Bush's term of office. My statements are factual. You hysterically cry "lies" & cravenly choose to live in denial as reality demands a 2nd American Revolution to take back our lives from these trans-natl corporations & their govt toadies.

@thebig1 FYI: Jeb Bush, FL AG K. Harris & Diebold's CEO swung the election to G. Bush by alterting votes via Diebold's GEMS central tally & TSx (DRE) systems – proven in court by BBV founder Bev Harris & software engineers, who won their case, exposing 12 sets of covert commands that switched votes to Bush in FL, UT, PA, CA, & other stares + counterfeit audit records given by GOP officials (many with criminal records) who tried to cover up the fraud with originals found buried in trash bins.

Yes, he was the best - despite his brief time in office, a scant thousand days. Review his speech before the Newspaper Guild in April 1961 denouncing secret societies, as well as his June 1963 address at American University opening detante & promoting diversity, plus his speech at Amherst University in Aug. '63 in which he defined the values he sought to realize for all: A world safe not only for democrcy & diversity, but for personal distinction. He was a visionary leader & true statesman.

Walru11- What a load of bullshit! JFK worshipping fools like you need to wipe the stardust from your eyes and start seeing just what a total waste of space your 'hero' really was. You call yourself a liberal and yet you conveniently overlook the macho posturing over the Cuban missile crisis; the total failure to carry out civil rights reform for fear of antagonising racist Dixiecrats; the use of right-wing nuts and Mafia scum in the Bay Of Pigs fiasco, plus the corruption of the 1960 election.
davmor1973 3 years ago
"Macho posturing?" JFK's seeking a diplomatic solution rather than acquiescing to relentless military/CIA demands to bomb Cuba, saved your sorry ass & the rest of the world from annihilation. 6/11/63 he delivered the strongest presidential pro-civil rights declaration since Lincoln, & on Oct. 29, won House Judiciary approval of the Civil Rights act that became law after his death. The Bay of Pigs was set-up by Ike, Nixon, Dulles, & Bush who hired mobsters. The 1960 election was fairly won.

You, my friend, are correct. Grandson of Irish immigrants, JFK suffered from Addison's Disease - a double blow when one lived among WASP eugenicists in Boston like anti-immigration advocate Sen. Henry Cabot Lodge. JFK fought for minorities, writing the book, "A Nation of Immigrants" & placed the moral authority of the presidency behind his call for egalitarian democracy & civil rights. He championed peace, detante & diversity - & yes, that is why the ruling white warmonger elite killed him.

You historical revisionists with your rightwing screeds fool no one. Your baseless lies are nothing more than posthumous assassination unsupported by impartial historical analysis.

He removed Khrushchev's missiles from Cuba without a war. Nixon, NOT JFK hired Rosselli & Giancana. He denounced McCarthy.

I am a black conservative, who grew up as a JFK democrat. I totally agree with everything you said in your post.

But overrall, you are on point my friend. Those who killed Jack Kennedy MAY THEY BURN IN HELL! THE KEY WORDS THOSE(MORE THAN ONE NUT)
norr4636 2 years ago
Despite the Boston Irish backlash, JFK would have (reluctantly) voted to censure McCarthy because "Tailgunner Joe's" excesses had brought about his demise, even tho McCarthy had intially been a family friend. Those who killed JFK (including Hoover, the JCOS, & CIA) also murdered MLKJ & RFK owing to their support of civil rights & opposition to the war in Vietnam. Dr. King's eloquent anti-war address is one of the finest ever rendered regarding that obscene conflict, but it sealed his doom.
WALRU11 2 years ago 2
I truly believe the CIA had a more greater roll. I think E. Howard Hunt (convicted watergate burgular) was right. LBJ recruited Cord Meyer, Jr. from the CIA to devise a plan to execute the 35th President. E. Howard Hunt had nothing to lose to say that, and it's a known fact that he worked for the CIA in the 60's. FBI knew but had no direct involvement except to cover up the mess. Bobby Kennedy had a big problem with McCarthy chief aide(his name escapes me) but he quit working for McCarthy
norr4636 2 years ago
Unraveling & tracing back the causes of JFK's murder to its core is an object historical lesson in the steady perversion & ultimate poisoning of American democracy. It is a harrowing study few of us are willing to face, hence the decision to live in denial & accept the obscene consequences rather than demand full disclosure. It was not a simple matter of convergent amoral or illegal para-political interests, but that the system itself has assumed the mask of a cancerous democratic imposter.

so I believe you are alluding to Bobby Kennedy's dissatisfation. But alot liberals lost trust in Jack Kennedy because they say he was a coward in not making that vote. Many Liberals didn't trust Jack Kennedy (known historical fact) Jack Kennedy didn't particular like liberals, thats the reason why he lost out on the VP position for the Dem party of 1956. Jack Kennedy was a great pragmatist, thats what made him sooo great and loved.
norr4636 2 years ago
JFK was right to dislike the type of comfortable 50's liberals who waited until it was opportune to censure McCarthy. Kennedy wished to appear a pragmatist when in fact he was closer to being a revolutionary in the tradition of Jefferson & Madison - which is, of course, why he was assassinated. He battled the Eugenicists, big corporations, CIA, militarists, & social engineering S-R forces perpetuating the establishment of an emerging neo-fascist hegemony over liberated thought and free choice.

Typical liberal memory of other aspects of the story. Florida Democratic workers and All Gore Lawyers had almost 50,000 Bush military votes thrown out and the networks called Florida before the Pan Handle had stopped voting which according to newspaper recounts and interviews with Pan Handle voters combined with cable network news research also cost Bush over 40,000 votes out in that part of Florida. With that added to Bush's total there never is a question of recount or who really won.

Nixon lost in '60. The GOP stole more votes in non-Cook County Illinois than those Daley stole for the Dems. Texas was won fairly. Nixon's absentee ballots in California were fraudulently inflated to tip the state to him. Nixon opposed a recount because it would have revealed too much of his own party's tampering. As for "allowing the nation to heal?" Please! The s.o.b. conspired to assassinate Kennedy and gain the presidency he insanely coveted. Nixon was a traitor & murderer.

Would it be too much to expect that you put forward something called evidence to support your lunatic conspiracy theories.

And while we're on the subject, it's funny you never mention your golden boy's responsibility for the murder of Diem in 1963. He was no liberal; he was as much a cold warrior as his close family friend, Joe McCarthy.
davmor1973 3 years ago
JFK had NOTHING to do with Diem's death, which is why your boy Nixon asked E. Howard Hunt in 1971 to alter 1963 State Dept. cables to falsely implicate Kennedy. JFK, in fact, offered Diem safe passage out. But Lodge & Landsdale, working with CIA assets & Vietnamese generals had Diem & his brother-in-law murdered. Aides reported JFK was shocked & visibly upset @ Diem's death. You obvioulsy have NO grasp of history beyond the rightwing revisionist lies you gullibly embrace without fact-checking.
WALRU11 3 years ago 2
The CIA's Vic Marchetti fingered Hunt as the payoff man in the JFK murder, a jury in 1992 rendered a verdict against Hunt, judging him guilty, & Hunt confessed to it before he died. In 1972, John Dean told Nixon, Hunt demanded $2 million in hush money & Nixon agreed to pay it, saying, "Hunt knows things that can bury us all & " "Tell Ehrlichman this whole group of (Hunt's) Cubans is tied to the Bay of Pigs. " Haldeman said Nixon's "Bay of Pigs" remark was his coded reference to the JFK killing.
