The Assassination Of John F. Kennedy

In January of 1960, a young man by the name of John F. Kennedy was sworn in to uphold the office of President of the United States of America.  He was assassinated on November 22, 1963, when he was only 46 years old.  There is lots of speculation about the way he died.  Here are just a few questions concerning his death.

In addition, a mass of evidence has been collected from the people that witnessed the shooting.  I will try to explain or figure out what went on during the 22 of November in 1963.
     There are many theories on the assassination of JFK.  The first theory is that Robert Kennedy, the brother of John and also the attorney general at this time dated a known mobsters’ girlfriend, and Robert also tried to get one of the biggest court cases in the history of the U.S. put upon the mob.  In order to get back at him, they killed his brother.  Later, they killed him when he was going to run for President.  There is some more evidence that the mob was involved when Jack Ruby killed Lee Oswald.  He shot him at c...
