<p>[QUOTE=&quot;fatima, post: 1263488, member: 22143&quot;]One note on that list.&nbsp; In 1968 the hugely popular Bobby Kennedy, JFK&#039;s brother, was also shot dead.&nbsp; At the time he was the leading contender to be nominated by the Democrats to run against Nixon.&nbsp; Instead the democrats, in the very violent 1968 Chicago convention nominated Hubert Humphrey who only appealed to the democratic base.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Kennedy probably would have beaten Nixon and that might have totally changed history.&nbsp; In those days the Southern states did not automatically go to the republicians (they were still blaiming the GOP for Lincoln&#039;s actions), so Nixon&#039;s support wasn&#039;t that strong.&nbsp; See the <a href="http://www.presidentelect.org/e1968.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.presidentelect.org/e1968.html" rel="nofollow">1968 Electoral Map.</a>&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>It was Nixon of course who ended the gold standard and put us on our present course of financial ruin.&nbsp; If one were looking for a conspiracy, and if the Kennedy brothers had not been shot, then silver and gold might not have been removed from the currency system.&nbsp; (then there is Vietnam which really would be off-topic)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
