At around 12.30pm on 22 November 1963 the world was shocked by a terrible incident which forever changed the view of the events that transpired on this day. As our President was leading a motorcade of convertibles down Elm Street in Dealey Plaza, Texas, he was suddenly struck by two penetrating bullets in the upper back and head. Our 35th President of the United States of America had been fatally assassinated by Lee Harvey Oswald, a sniper from the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository Building. However, Lee Harvey Oswald, a crazed madman, single-handedly carried out the assassination of President Kennedy. Both first-hand knowledge and visual evidence allow people to reexamine the events of this day and prove that there were other gunmen involved in the bombing of our youngest president-elect. John F. Kennedy was described as a national hero to many Catholics living in the United States in the early 1960s. He was idolized by many Americans, particularly women, for his intriguing appearance, his considerable wealth, and his youthful aspiration. Once elected, Kennedy became the youngest and only Catholic president in our nation's great history. Although his future seemed bright and optimistic, all good things must come to an end. The assassination of President Kennedy has become known as one of the largest conspiracies in history and to this day has not been proven. The Warren Commission concluded that “there is no evidence that Lee Harvey Oswald or Jack Ruby was part of a conspiracy, domestic or foreign, to assassinate President Kennedy because of the difficulty of conclusively proving the negatives, the possibility that others were involved nor Oswald nor Ruby cannot... middle of paper... elected to a second term remains unknown, but his presidency is forever marked by a conspiracy which, it is confirmed, was the work of a number of individuals who desperately wanted to liberate the United States from an optimistic future. And so my fellow Americans say, "Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country." - John Fitzgerald Kennedy.Works quoted "The Magic Bullet: Even More Magical Than We Thought?"
