Kats’ Korner: Editorial on President Kennedy

50 years ago today, a tragic event changed the course of The United States of America, possibly forever.

The assassination of President John Fitzgerald Kennedy may forever be a mystery. There are those that still believe the assassination was carried out by the mob, CIA, FBI or President Lyndon Johnson.

There has never been proof of any such theories.

The truth of the matter is, Lee Harvey Oswald was determined to be the assassin. Whether he really did so or not, only he knows.

The fact is, the nation was shook beyond belief that day. To imagine that the youngest man ever elected President of the United States, who held so much promise for this country, was the victim of an assassin’s bullet was incomprehensible.

There is no doubt history, good or bad, was made that day. 50 years later, many Americans are enthralled in memories of JFK.

President Kennedy and the First Lady were to many, Camelot. For a brief moment, it seemed as if our country had royalty.

In the blink of an eye, all was irrevocably changed forever.

God Bless President Kennedy.
