Quoting JFK Remarks In Kansas City Before He Was Killed 60 Years Ago Today

A few years ago we found this classic item on sale for a few bucks at a used book shop. 

Years before the Internets . . . We studied nearly every page of this tribute book that seemed like an EPIC story from American mythology.

Later . . . The Internets told us that either the mob, the military industrial complex . . . Or maybe Lady Bird was responsible for the assassination. 

We can debate it until infinity passes . . . 

For tonight . . . These words from JFK on the campaign trail seem to resonate . . .

Remarks of Senator John F. Kennedy, Auditorium, Kansas City, Missouri . . .

What we are here at home speaks far louder than what we say. The kind of society that we build here, the fairness with which we treat our people, their equal opportunity for development of their talents, the kind of jobs they hold and wages they earn, the kind of houses in which they live, the kind of education which they get, the kind of security which they achieve in their older age, these are the things that build a strong and vital society."

The only thing scarier than the possibility that everything is part of a vast conspiracy is the nagging fear that everything is random.

Finally, we share a favorite bit of late night movie watching via the fantasies of Oliver Stone . . .
