  • @8House Its been 48 years, cut Mr. Bolden some slack, huh? So it was the Army-Air Force football game and not Army/Navy matchup (which is the more famous rivalry and so tends to trip off the tongue more readily). JFK was scheduled to attend the Army-Air Force game at Soldier Field on the Saturday afternoon of November 2, 1963. The plot uncovered by Secret Service agents, including Mr. Bolden, revealed sniper teams planned to shoot Kennedy when his motorcade drove into Chicago's inner loop.

  • I have great respect for Abraham Bolden but he made a mistake in this interview. There was no Army-Navy game in Chicago in 1963. The Army-Navy game was traditionally held in Philadelphia. In 1963 it was scheduled for Nov. 30 in Municipal Stadium (later renamed JFK stadium). Because of the assassination of President Kennedy it was rescheduled for a week later. Navy won a 21-15 with Army near the goal line when time expired. There is so much wrong information out there on this national tragedy.

  • very informative and unique perspective i'd not heard of until today (after researching info related to a post on a friend's facebook from the son of mr. bolden)

  • @MrNeaguy Respectfully, Dude! what kind of "Hobbit Hooch are you living in. Diversionary Theories. Any idea how many Documents reviewed, and First Hand Witness hes spoken to, Harry Williams etc. How many have you spoken to..? I have seen the Official Record The WC rpt. Oswald was a Ninja with a 12 buck weapon.A projectile "RE-Stabilizes. They can't track the NECK WOUND because Jackie was getting tired. And the Secret Service acted instantly as per their SOP. Good stuff if yer Bilbo Baggins

  • Thom Hartman is a smart guy, but on the JFK case he's way off the mark. He doesn't have a basic grasp of the official documentary record.

    Waldron's theories are speculation and diversionary.

  • it was the same conspiracy, the same system or network testing out possible hit attempts, they failed all but devoted evrything to their best laid plot, dallas, and it worked. one and the same conspiracy, under cia control, cord meyer leading it, the operation, facilitated by corporate and political elite, such as texas tycoon hunt, and lbj, and hoover of course.
