In the book MARY'S MOSAIC: THE CIA CONSPIRACY TO MURDER JOHN F. KENNEDY, MARY PINCHOT MEYER, AND THEIR VISION OF WORLD PEACE (Skyhorse Publishing, 2012), Peter Janney also emphasizes President Kennedy's turn toward peace.
In the earlier book LBJ: THE MASTERMIND OF THE JFK ASSASSINATION (Skyhorse Publishing, 2011), Nelson argues persuasively that LBJ was the mastermind behind JFK's assassination.
The assassinations of JFK, MLK, and RFK in the 1960s are part of the background of the anti-60s rhetoric that Jenkins discusses in his book DECADE OF NIGHTMARES, mentioned above. In other words, conservatives, most notably former Vice President Nixon in the 1968 presidential campaign, were able to exploit those tragic assassinations to the advantage of the Republican Party.
Unfortunately, not many Americans have read the four books about the assassinations of JFK, MLK, and RFK that I've mentioned above. Arguably most Americans today who are participating in protests across the country about events in Ferguson have not read those four book -- and probably have not even heard of them, because of the anti-60s noise of conservatives. After all, the anti-60s noise of conservatives has intimidated most journalists in the news media and most other Americans who are afraid to investigate those three tragic assassinations of the 1960s. In light of their fear, and in light of the effectiveness of the anti-60s conservative noise machine, it is unlikely that most Americans today will read the four books I've mentioned.
But in light of the conservative exploitation of those three tragic assassinations in the 1960s to the advantage of the Republican Party from the 1968 elections onward, it strikes me as unrealistic to think that conservatives today will NOT try to exploit the events in Ferguson to the advantage of the Republican Party.
PRESIDENT OBAMA AND THE EVENTS IN FERGUSON
More than once in pieces I've published at OpEdNews, I have explicitly stated that I can understand that President Obama would prefer not to be assassinated as JFK was. But would he now be risking assassination if he were to speak out about the events in Ferguson?
