2 Bullet Theory

            On November 20, 1963 President John F. Kennedy, along with his wife, Vice President Lyndon Johnson, and Johnson's wife, was headed to Texas for the sole purpose of trying to gain votes from the Texas Democratic Party before the election of 1964 (World Book Encyclopedia pg. 267). On November 22, 1964 the presidents plane landed in Dallas after a trip to Fort Worth. The president and his partners were to drive I a limousine through the streets of Dallas to the Dallas Trade Mart. As the president's limousine proceeded down the streets, the crowd cheered for him very loudly. At about 12:30 p.m. the president's car had approached the last leg of his ride through Dallas when gunshots rang out. The president's head slumped down and had been apparently shot. President Kennedy was taken to an area hospital where doctors worked desperately to save him but their efforts failed (pg.267). John Fitzgerald Kennedy had been assassinated. .
             Now the secret service had a murder to investigate. They began on the case immediately. Officials talked to many witnesses which all told them they saw a man with a gun on the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository (pg. 268). Then the agents began to search for a man whom had ran out of that building shortly after the shots were fired. Police Officer J.D. Tippet recognized a man whom looked liked the suspect. He approached the man and tried to arrest him. This man, Lee Harvey Oswald, shot and killed officer Tippet with a revolver. A short while later Oswald was arrested at a theater and charged with the murder of Tippet and JFK (pg. 268). He was convicted and believed to have been a lone gunman. Some of the American public believed this case to be done and over with. I do not believe to this day that it is. I am going to prove that Oswald was not a lone gunman but that another person actually shot JFK from a manhole and in front of the president's head.
