At around 12:30 p.m. on November 22, 1963, the world was incredibly stunned by a horrific incident that forever changed the view of the events of that day. As our president drove a convertible motorcade 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 lunatic, acted alone in the assassination of President Kennedy. First-hand knowledge and visual evidence allow people to re-examine the events of that day and prove that other gunmen were 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 several Americans, especially women, because of his intriguing good looks, substantial wealth and of his young aspirations. Once elected, Kennedy became the youngest and only Catholic president in the great history of our country. Even though 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 greatest conspiracies in history and remains unproven to this day. The Warren Commission concluded that there is "no evidence that Lee Harvey Oswald or Jack Ruby participated in any conspiracy, domestic or foreign, to assassinate President Kennedy because of the difficulty of proving the contrary with certainty, of the possibility that other people are involved in this matter. neither Oswald nor Ruby can do it...... middle of paper ...... elected to a second term remains unknown, but his presidency is forever marked by a conspiracy that is confirmed to be that of a a number of individuals who desperately wanted to rid the United States of an optimistic future. This is why my fellow Americans: “Ask not what your country can do for you – ask what you can do for your country.” » – John Fitzgerald Kennedy.
