146. Why do you think de Mohrenschildt befriended Oswald?

What was the connection there?

I haven't read de Mohrenschildt's testimony on his association with the assassination but I hope to this weekend.

I'm genuinely interested. I think that too much focus is placed on whether Oswald shot Kennedy and too little on Oswald's associations and behavior. Was he really someone's "patsy" or employee or agent? I don't know that my question has been adequately answered.

I see the assassination of Kennedy as the point at which the US media and people in general (with the exception of a minority of liberals) turned rightward and left the FDR legacy behind.

Johnson was great on civil rights and Medicare among other issues. But he fought an upward and difficult battle to keep up the liberal trend that he inherited from Kennedy (and even Eisenhower).

I think that those who question the official explanations about the Kennedy assassination are trying to understand how a liberal, freedom-loving country became so conservative so rapidly after that event.

How is it possible that eight years after rejecting Nixon and five years after Kennedy's death, the American people elected Nixon and all his corruption and cheating and spying and paranoia? In my opinion, that is the question that troubles those who question the official explanations for the assassination of Kennedy.
