You know where you were and what you did 48 years ago today

President John F. Kennedy speaks at Rice Unive...Image via Wikipedia
That is if you are of a certain age, for November 22, 1963 was the day President Kennedy was killed. There has been a world of speculation as to what effect, if any, this had on the world. Would he have pulled out of Vietnam? Could he have gotten civil rights legislation passed? Would we old folks be benefiting from Medicare? The questions go on and on.

There has been a lot more speculation as to whether Oswald was the assassin or the lone assassin. Probably more books have been written about the assassination itself than Kennedy's presidency. Personally, I think he was the lone assassin, but, really, who cares?
