I believe people (including LBJ and RFK) were convinced within a few minutes.

LBJ got caught on a hot mic talking to Richard Russell saying he thought there was more than one shooter.

But not before?

Just kidding :)

It was a shame he died. I wonder what things would look like had he not.

Indonesia would be completely different. JFK was planning to meet with Sukarno shortly before he was assassinated. Then we got Suharto, New Order, the rest is history (over 1,000,000 communists, atheists, feminists, etc killed, and the third world is set back).

Vietnam war likely wouldn't have happened, certainly not in the same way.

my dad is convinced that LBJ ordered the hit. I've never waded into the assassination conspiracy theories but he gets pretty animated about it.

Stephen King has some ideas in his 11/22/63 ;-)

I just finished watching 11.22.63 which is based on that novel and it's so good

Some believe LBJ was in on it.

Fascinating read. Every time I read these sort of old articles, I wonder who the people named in there were. For example:

> was being saved by Marjorie Field, the wife of a prosperous Beverly Hills stockbroker,

Who was Mrs Field? Apparently she had a really large house and a lot of free time. Who was her husband? What was her legacy?

That was a very interesting read. Thanks.
