President Kennedy's Fort Worth visit on November 22, 1963.

This newsclip begins with Commentator Frank McGee in New York, who switches to Dallas and Reporter Robert MacNeil (later of MacNeil/Lehrer report). Robert MacNeil was with the President on November 22, 1963 in both Fort Worth and in Dallas. Robert MacNeil gives a report of the President's visit to Fort Worth, all the way to his death in Dallas- to Air Force One leaving for Washington D.C. that afternoon. The visual packet- are clips of the President in Fort Worth on the morning of November 22, 1963 as he shakes hands with people outside the Hotel Texas where he stayed for the night (and where he made some comments to the crowd which had been waiting for him since early morning). The next scene is of Mrs Kennedy and the President at the Fort Worth Chamber of Commerce breakfast. The next scene is of the arrival in Dallas of the President and Jackie, and it also shows the President and First Lady getting into the limousine at Love Field airport for the motorcade into downtown Dallas. Next is the motorcade footage which was shown numerous times on the evening of November 22,1963. Much of this footage was taken by Dave Wiegman Jr. (who was in the motorcade in designated Camera Car 1). Incidentally, at 4:44-4:48- assassination witness Bill Newman is seen hitting his hand into the ground in Dealey Plaza on the north side of Elm Street. After MacNeil talks about the events in Dealey Plaza, there is the interview of Jean Hill and Mary Moorman on November 22, 1963. The next scenes are at Parkland Memorial Hospital and Robert MacNeil describing the emergency room treatment of the President. He also describes Malcolm Kilduff announcing the President's death. Next is a description of the scene at Love Field and a blurry view of the ambulance arriving at Air Force One- and also of the casket being taken up the steps of the airplane. At the end of this newsclip, Robert MacNeil mentions the swearing in of Lyndon Johnson by Sarah T. Hughes.

@TheAmbassador11 "Why no lawyer for Oswald"

In 1988, WFAA-TV Dallas (the ABC affiliate) released their weekend coverage showing the president of the Dallas Bar Association after he met Oswald in his cell on 11/23. Nichols said that Oswald did not want the Dallas Bar Association to provide a lawyer & instead wanted John Abt a lawyer that specialized in defending subversives! Abt wasn't available.

THIS corroborated by Robert Oswald, Margurite Oswald, Marina Oswald & Ruth Paine...is that enough?

According to Chief Jessie Currie, they let the media get out of hand. They were bombarded with requests and even had TV cables running through Capt. Will Fritz 3rd floor window from the outside of the building.

In Currie's book, he explained how sensitive the upper levels of the Dallas police were to the idea that the police were mistreating Oswald under interrogations because Oswald's face was marked up from the fight in the theatre.

Nice! Wait 3 weeks to respond to my answer, then just ask the question again.

If you are trying to persaude ANYONE that for the most important hit in mob history, their hitman would use a single shot to the BELLY to silence someone, they'd LAUGH at you. It is not intended as a mortal wound like a headshot would be...PERIOD!

[TheAmbassador11]

@pajasa62 I have questions as to why there were so many police officers were there in the first place. There were way too many people in that area, period. Over 70 officers, plus all the reporters? That transfer should have been top secret and possibly done in the middle of the night on a strictly need-to-know basis. That whole scene was set up to allow that murder to occur.

[TheAmbassador11]

@pajasa62 Ok, why no lawyer for Oswald when he requested one?

[TheAmbassador11]

@pajasa62 Are you underestimating the power of a 38.? Was that what Ruby shot Oswald with? Almost anywhere in the torso would kill him.

[pajasa62]

@TheAmbassador11

"How did Ruby know he could shoot Oswald in front of cops?"

???

That makes no sense to ask...as does your questions on "why didn't the cops shoot Ruby?" Did you ever see the footage?...how quickly Ruby was subdued & apprehended?

YOU SHOULD BE ASKING YOURSELF...

if Oswald was to be silence (and you think the cops are corrupt) WHY WOULDN'T they kill Oswald in the theatre...an ARMED SUSPECT IN THE KILLING OF A FELLOW COP?????

@TheAmbassador11

Everything you have said in this post is completely ambiguous or just or a total groping for evidence.

You take the idea that Oswald and 2 people running down the stairs not crossing paths perfectly within a few seconds is something leading toward proof!...or Burtch Burroughs readily admitting that he had no reason to note the time in the theatre, just guessing at it!

And if you want me to tell you the details regarding Oswald's "no lawyer" nonsense, just ask.
