Myra: Thanks for that question and I will be glad to give my answer.
(1) I thought at the time he was a very good "Commander in Chief". Politics was not my strong suite at the time and it did not play into anything I was associate with at that time. We thought the United States could do no wrong in fighting the Cold War and it was an honor to serve the President during those difficult times.
(2) My feelings have not changed in reference to JFK. However, I have watch the American dream degraded by greed and crooks since Kennedy. We have lost our freedom and destoryed our chacacter as a nation that leads. We have been overrun by Crooks, Lobbiest, and special interest in the name of freedom and the "American way".
If Kennedy could have saved us or killed us I do not know. But because of the average American citizen and his apathy toward important issues of the past and today, HE (the average John Doe and Jane Doe has let this nation die a slow death. We Americans have let this greate nation fall into the hands of evil and forked tongued liars and for this I believe JFK is turning in agoney in his grave, because I feel the man loved his country more than Pork, lobbiest, and special interest side deals.
We lost the good fight when we lost John Kennedy.
Tosh,
Thank you so much for answering my questions. I find your answerings comforting. Researching President Kennedy's murder is very emotional for me. Not only because a fine man was slaughtered, but because it was--as you indicate--the start of the end. It is now clear that a good and genuine leader like JFK, Malcolm X, MLK, and RFK will be exterminated by the shadow government.
If you're willing to answer another question, I wonder: was your attitute towards JFK (non-political and non-hostile) atypical amongst your colleagues?
Thanks again.
Myra
