    Amen!,It stuck me looking at this old footage this is exactly what our ex Prez craves but can never achieve without staging and intimidation,so sad to have a man so beloved around the globe be struck during the middle of his Presidency and the prime of his life.Where tiday we fast forward to everything this nation fought around the globe for decades and that's an autocratic regime which Trump appears as a wannabe!! NOW THAT IS SAD!!!!

    For me JFK was the greatest President that the USA ever had and he did more for Ireland 🇮🇪 than any other President ever did. Because of his legacy, the Irish are like brothers and sisters to most Americans and are welcomed with open arms for those of us visiting America 🇺🇸 or living there.What a awesome President and a wonderful friend to Ireland. He was an inspiration to me , 10:25 Ireland 🇮🇪 and probably the whole world 🌎. The world loved him and the fact that his father was Irish helped Ireland become the great nation that we are. Most Catholic families had a picture of him and the Sacred Heart ❤️ in our homes. Long live the Kennedys 🙏

    If the Secret Service had been on the cars two rear bumper foot stands with hand griips the shots would have been blocked. JFK did not want them there because he wanted himself and Jackie to be seen. It was always said that the rear bumper foot stands were not in the right place to protect the President anyway. This video clearly shows where the rear bumper foot stands were and would have protected the President. Also, it was always very obtuse about how Clint Hill got onto the back of the car with Jackie. Earlier windows of the footage show him riding on the side of the back up car. Somehow he managed to run up and jump on JFK's car stepping onto the bumper footstand and leaping onto the back of the car. Many accounts had him somehow walking along. So many strange stories. Strange these bumper stands were never brought up or revealed in the hundreds and hundreds of footage and photos I saw about the assasination. The bumper stands that were not there are there. Very mysterious. The hand rail to hang on is clearly visible on the right side of the car. More disproven conspiracy stories. It just goes on and on. Emory Roberts rode shotgun in the back up car head of the Secret Service Detail that day at Dealey Plaza. When the President got shot, Emory Roberts was in charge thereafter. Nobody ever talks about that. He took charge of everything, and immediately got Johnson onto Air Force One to leave Dallas and be sworn in going to Washington or if necessary a safe place to protect him. Emory was my neighbor in Wheaton, Md. on Holdridge Rd. Most of this is in Dealey Plaza - The End of Camelot In the early morning it was scheduled to rain in Dallas and the Secret Service was setting up to install the canopy on the car. The forecast changed and the President wanted to be seen by the crowds, and besides the President did not want ir put on. So it was not put on. So as to not make JFK negligent in his death, it was bandied about that there were no foot stands on the rear of the car for Secret Service to ride on. Clearly you can see two foot stands on the rear bumper of the car with handrails to hang on. Clint Hills is stepping on one to get onto the back of the car to be with Jackie. There is just bogus story after bogus story surrounding JFK's assasination.

    You wrote two bogus parts of that sad day yourself! He did NOT order any S.S. off the rear bumper hand holds and footstools! That is a myth that keeps being repeated by those who wanted him dead. He did NOT do what you said he did. He obeyed the S S orders (yes, the S S. legally is in control of him for his safety), and he cannot "order them" to do anything! The S.S. stand down on that awful day was directed by higher-ups in the S.S. (Emory Roberts for one), who did not like him, and were in on the plot along with the VP, the Mastermind who got his allies in the Pentagon, Intelligence, anti-Castro Cubans, and the Mob, plus FBI Director Hoover to coordinate the plot to kill him in that easily hidden area at Dealer Plaza; Dallas, TX, the VPs home State of power with some key people in the Dallas PD. So, Kennedy did not "cause his own death" by ordering the S.S. off the rear of the limo or other actions taken by others. It was a plot by those power-grabbing, war-mongering murderers who killed him! STOP repeating that lie on him "ordering the S.S. off the rear" as it is patently false and a myth! As is the bubbletop that you said he also "ordered removed!" Where do you get your false info? That cover top was not bulletproof, but the light changes when on the limo could mislead the shooters where to aim their rifles. It also could deflect a bullet aimed at him, but we'll never know because the rain had stopped by then. (The S.S. was in control of the bubbletop, part of their overall security area.) If it hadn't, maybe the plot would have failed on Elm Street with the fatal bullet deflected away, but the plotters would have had a backup plan. Unless he still had to go to the hospital. But not hit fatally in his head, as his other wounds in his mid-back and throat (front direction wound proving a conspiracy, by Dr. Malcolm Perry's report of a small, round hole just below his Adam's Apple area in his throat) were survivable.

    He and Khrushchev disregarded their respective military chiefs, to broker a Peaceful agreement that saved the world! What's wrong with you not to realize that by itself, elevated him as a man who truly wanted peace, unlike his evil, war-mongering successor who gleefully mass murdered over 58,000 in Vietnam (that Kennedy was starting to pull out his non-combat advisors) all to make $ Millions in previously buying war armament stocks as other insiders also did in changing the foreign policy there. No combat troops in S. VN until the landing near Da Nang, on Mar. 8, 1965! None before by Ike or Kennedy!
