Back when I was a little kid, there used to be an old TV show that wed watch every Saturday morning called Superman. That show always started out by announcing that he fights a never ending battle for truth, justice, and the American way.
These days I think youd almost have to actually be Superman to break through the gridlock of lies and cover-ups surrounding the JFK assassination.
But Im old school and I still believe. So this book is dedicated to (you guessed it):
Truth, Justice, and the American way.

The Katzenbach Memo
W ere going to begin with the Smoking Gun related to the tragedy of November 22, 1963.
What youre about to read is a verbatim copy of a Justice Department memo from the then-acting Attorney General of the United States, Nicholas Katzenbach, to new President Lyndon Johnsons aide, Bill Moyers. It was written shortly after Lee Harvey Oswald was murdered by Jack Ruby and is the clearest documentation that exists, to this day, of our governments intent to cover up the truthfor whatever reasonbehind the assassination of President John Fitzgerald Kennedy.
November 25, 1963 MEMORANDUM FOR MR. MOYERS
It is important that all of the facts surrounding President Kennedys Assassination be made public in a way which will satisfy people in the United States and abroad that all the facts have been told and that a statement to this effect be made now.
1. The public must be satisfied that Oswald was the assassin; that he did not have confederates who are still at large; and that the evidence was such that he would have been convicted at trial.
2. Speculation about Oswalds motivation ought to be cut off, and we should have some basis for rebutting thought that this was a Communist conspiracy or (as the Iron Curtain press is saying) a right-wing conspiracy to blame it on the Communists. Unfortunately the facts on Oswald seem about too pattoo obvious (Marxist, Cuba, Russian wife, etc.). The Dallas police have put out statements on the Communist conspiracy theory, and it was they who were in charge when he was shot and thus silenced.
3. The matter has been handled thus far with neither dignity nor conviction. Facts have been mixed with rumor and speculation. We can scarcely let the world see us totally in the image of the Dallas police when our President is murdered.
I think this objective may be satisfied by making public as soon as possible a complete and thorough FBI report on Oswald and the assassination. This may run into the difficulty of pointing to inconsistencies between this report and statements by Dallas police officials. But the reputation of the Bureau is such that it may do the whole job. The only other step would be the appointment of a Presidential Commission of unimpeachable personnel to review and examine the evidence and announce its conclusions. This has both advantages and disadvantages. I think it can await publication of the FBI report and public reaction to it here and abroad.
I think, however, that a statement that all the facts will be made public property in an orderly and responsible way should be made now. We need something to head off public speculation or Congressional hearings of the wrong sort.

Introduction
AUTHORS NOTE: There are many video clips I will be referring to, which will convey some fascinating information. To make it easier for you to WATCH ALONG AS YOU READ, Ive put all the links online at Jesse VenturaThe Official Facebook Page: facebook.com/OfficialJesseVentura.
T his case has so much blatant evidence that totally blows the doors off the official version of the tragedy that took place fifty years ago in Dallas that its ridiculous. Ive listed 63 solid reasons in this book which from a standpoint of criminal lawis 62 more than I really need to prove reasonable doubt. One solid point is all it takes to convince a jury; and youre about to see dozens of them. This proves a conspiracy to assassinate the 35th President of the United Statesperiod.
Thats really how I looked at this caselike an attorney taking it to court. And I can tell you straight up that there is no way they would convict my client in this case; with the knowledge and the witness testimony that now exists, Lee Harvey Oswald would have been found innocent of doing this crime.
In fact, since Bill OReilly apparently thinks he knows so much about the JFK assassination, Id like to publicly challenge him to answer my 63 points. Orif Mr. OReilly is too busy to come up with so many responseshow about a public debate? Lets do it. Lets set it up! Ill be there, Bill.
This book even comes with a guarantee. I dont just say it was a conspiracy I show the evidence, and far beyond any reasonable standards of proof. I guarantee you that there is more than sufficient evidence and that, after examining it, any reasonable person will be convinced of that fact.
Ive also decided to break with convention and begin this book with some conclusions because I know thats what people want andespecially in this casetruly deserve. So bear in mind that proof for these conclusions resides in the pages that follow.
John F. Kennedy was murdered by a conspiracy involving disgruntled CIA agents, anti-Castro Cubans, and members of the Mafia, all of whom were extremely angry at what they viewed as Kennedys appeasement policies toward Communist Cuba and the Soviet Union. President Kennedy sought peace and was viewed by these groups as a cowardly traitor by not giving in to their overwhelming call for war. Those groupsit should be clearly noted are precisely the same groups that Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy concluded were responsible for his brothers death, after conducting his own private investigation.
