Is it true that John F. Kennedy's brain was never buried, but kept and got lost in the process?

No, I really don't think that's true, but then again, would any of us really know for sure?\n\nI can tell you one very interesting and factual story that is linked however. Several years ago someone dug up Lee Harvey Oswald's grave (the guy who was arrested in connection with Kennedy's murder, although never charged) and apparently swapped his skull out with another skull. This was discovered when the government dug up his grave for further investigation, in the 80s I believe, and noticed that his teeth didn't match up to his dental records. So of course that lead to a big hoopla on whether or not is was really him, blah, blah, blah, but reality was, it was just his skull that was switched out.

THE MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX. Before Ike Eisenhower left office he warned of a dangerous unseen power wanting to control the govt. They helped to kill Kennedy after he refused to give air support to the Bay of Pigs invasion. Kennedy took the blame, but it was a covert CIA operation and he found out about it. He then refused to give air support and was deemed a threat to national security by the CIA and Military Industrial Complex. Go to google video and watch "kennedy assasins uncovered" by William Cooper. It explains the whole lot and will show you the real murderer.

It does not matter.  We will never know what really happened.  Just like the Kennedy assassinations, Marilyn Monroe's death, aliens etc...  All of this is out of the common persons control.

No one knows for sure. I like the Kennedy theory myself. They got tired of cleaning up his mess incl. Marilyn Monroe. But the mafia theory works for me too. They are just interesting & somewhat believeble unlike Oswald.

Its false. If it is true. It would not have been mysterious.

jfk did not get a lot done on this issue, though he was a proponent of civil rights (some say that led to his assasination) but there was little legislation passed during his era...johnson, his vp did most of that (as unpopular as he was) after jfk's assasination....though there were milestones during kennedy's tenure...go to the wikepedia site, and look up civil rights

It was televised. It was one of the big reasons cited for kennedy winning. On tv kennedy looked calm and collected and nixon looked sick and nervous. On the radio it sounded as if Nixon won, his points being better. I would say that in the future debates should be telivised because that is whatt has come to be expected. However if going by just the issues I think Nixon was not represented fairly. However I am very glad Kennedy got to be presedent before Nixon...can you imagien that guy as president during the Cuban Missile Crisis...wow. But the Kennedy Nixon debaes made it imporanat for president to look the part.

We'll never know unless we find a portal to some parallel universe where someone was able to intercept the shooter, or thwart the conspiracy, etc.\n\nThough we are seeing an incredible degree of corruption now, it didn't just start in 2000.  The groundwork was being laid well before Kennedy.  History shows that he was no saint, either, but then few people are.\n\n"If" is a mighty big word.  Every single decision and every single action has consequences.  Think about the butterfly effect.  There's just no way to take an isolated incident and say that it was the only thing that led to... whatever.  Also, an act is often the result of the time we live in, and many times we get the impression that if one person didn't do it, someone else would try.

Actually nobody knows who did it.\n\nThe Conspiracy...\n\nThe Conspiracy\n\nDealey Plaza\n\nWhat about those witnesses? Didn't everyone hear shots from the Grassy Knoll? What about the Tague wounding? Who was the "Umbrella Man?" Was the rifle recovered really a Mauser? Does "acoustic evidence" show a shot from the Grassy Knoll? Were the Three Tramps suspicious? How could Kennedy's head go "back and to the left?" \n\nThe Single Bullet Theory\n\nYou've seen Kevin Costner give the conspiracy version of the Single Bullet theory. You know: Connally seated directly in front of Kennedy, at the same height, and facing straight ahead. Was that really what happened? \n\nLee Harvey Oswald\n\nWhat sort of person was he? Did he really have "Top Secret" security clearance? Did he shoot at General Walker? Were there two Oswalds? If Oswald shot Kennedy, what was his motive? Was the man exhumed in 1981 really somebody besides Oswald? \n\nJim Garrison and New Orleans\n\nDid Oswald really share an office with Guy Banister? Did Clay Shaw really use the alias "Clay Bertrand?" Why did Oliver Stone make a movie about the Shaw trial and not even mention Perry Raymond Russo? Did David Ferrie die a "mysterious death?" What about Jim Garrison and the Mafia? \n\nMedical Evidence\n\nDid the bullet that hit Kennedy in the back penetrate only an inch and fall out? Was Kennedy hit in the head by a bullet from in front? Are the autopsy photos and x-rays faked? Did all the doctors at Parkland Hospital believe that Kennedy was hit in the front of the neck, and if so, are their opinions decisive evidence that that is what happened? Was the back of Kennedy's head blown out? Are the autopsy photos faked? \n\nBogus Evidence\n\nDid you know that all the evidence in this case proven to be forged has been on the conspiracy side? One key piece originated with the KGB! Did you know that the "mysterious deaths" are virtually all not so "mysterious" when you look at them closely? Do you trust authors like Mark Lane to tell you the truth about what witnesses said? \n\nJack Ruby\n\nThe "lone nut" theory of the assassination is really the "two lone nuts" theory. What sort of person was Jack Ruby? A mobster? An intelligence agent? A small-time hustler? The sort of volatile character who might really have shot Oswald out of righteous anger? \n\nOliver Stone's Movie "JFK"\n\nWe expect Hollywood movies to take some liberties with the historical record. But what do we think when Hollywood turns history on its head? Oliver Stone wants to overturn the verdict in the Clay Shaw trial. The jury found that District Attorney Jim Garrison had no case — so Stone invents a case on celluloid. Just how honest was Oliver Stone, Shaw's Hollywood prosecutor? \n\nJohn Kennedy: Liberal Martyr?\n\nFor some in the conspiracy crowd, John Kennedy was a liberal saint, who was going to implement policies that would bring America into a new Utopia. So, of course, a threatened Power Elite had to kill him. Was Kennedy the kind of left liberal who threatened established interests? Was he a hero of Civil Rights? Had he decided to pull out of Vietnam? Historian Eric Paddon dissects these claims in a series of essays based on his posts on the Internet. \n\nAssassination Logic\n\nSome notions about logic, probability and statistics necessarily underlie all discussion of "conspiracy" or "lone assassin." Does the lone assassination theory involve too many implausible "coincidences?" Are there a suspicious number of "connections" between various figures in the case? Is the Single Bullet Theory highly "improbable?" \nAssassination Witnesses\nIt writings about the assassination, as in real-world criminal justice, witness testimony looms large. But just how reliable are the witnesses? How many witnesses are just flat out telling tall

the lone gunman theory is a crock.  there's no way that all those shots, from all those angles came in 6 seconds.  \n\nphysicists have shown it to be scientifically impossible.  the blows to jfk's body can be seen to come from different directions, right there on the videotape.  \n\nthere's a lot of people who wanted jfk dead, so the investigation has been cloudy.\n\nwhat is interesting however, is that when Oswald was arrested, there was NO INTERROGATION.  They didn't make a record, record a transcript, or make notes of ANYTHING they did with him.\n\nHe was in custody for a few hours, then he conviently gets murdered before he can talk, and give information to anybody.

depends on which bullet hit him ,not through the back, but the one that went through Governor O'Connelly's leg, ricocheted back behind the limo and made a u-turn into JFK's skull. Eye witness testimony have 2 women who said they saw a railroad-uniformed worker put a rifle case on the RR control box next to the RR tracks just behind the hedges on the famous grassy knoll and watched a man in a suite they thought was secret service assemble the rifle and shoot over the hedges and put the gun back in the case at which the man in the RR uniformed removed his coveralls and walked away with the gun. Much speculation. LBJ (V.P.) was known for his bitter contempt for JFK and was quoted at a party the night before that we wouldn't have to deal with that S.O.B after tomorrow. The Warren commission states a single gunman but eye wittiness' state otherwise. The History channel did a week long special in 2003 ( the 40th anniversary of his assassination ) and mater of factly said there were two or three gunmen. I think most people think it was an inside job.

it was hidden, or not true, or he didnt die

Most all records have been open for a long time. How reliable they are is questionable. You have to ask yourself, what could be so bad that it needs to be kept away from citizens. The answer to me is obvious. What happen after JFK was killed? What political course did we go towards? What was LBJ's agenda for Vietnam, and who was he serving?

Boy did you open a can of worms!\n\nThe Kennedy assassination is one of the favorite of conspiracy theorist (notice I did not say nut cases).  The theories range from LBJ (totally assinine) to the Mafia (more belivable).  They also include Cubans (espcially with Oswalds connections), the CIA (no one ever asked why, they just say the CIA did it), to just some nutcase (it may be true, but can you prove it).\n\nThe real reason will probably never be discovered, but as long as people ask questions, that will be one that will be asked.

Lee Harvey Oswald. I know there are tons of conspiracy theories, but the Warren Commision conclusively proved the Magic Bullet Theory, and the Secret Service has replicated the exact shot taken perfectly countless times. \n\nThe Magic Bullet theory basically matches the amount of shots heard and casings found against the bullet wounds in JFK and the man riding next to him. There were more bullet wounds in the two men and in the car then there were shots fired, which is grounds for wild speculation, but the Warren Commision, the USSS, and other private ballistics scientists have shown that the bullets richocheted at a certain angle, causing the damage to occur.\n\nMost of the evidence against the Magic Bullet Theory is not enough to prove anything: all of it is from "eye witnesses", who saw puffs of smoke from tufts of grass and heard gunshots away from the Texas Book Depository where JFK was shot. However, if an assasinan like Carlos Sanchez "The Jackal" really did kill JFK, he would have used a rifle that fired a smokeless round. Professionals do not leave traces.\n\nWhat's more, eyewitnesses rarely are even accepted as concrete evidence in any court of law nowadays. In trials involving armed robberies gone wrong, where a store keeper is shot twice, eyewitnesses often report there being several shots, despite clear surveillance camera footage. The problem with human minds is that we invent things subconciously, or we forget things and invent details.\n\nIt was Lee Harvey Oswald that shot the President.

At the time of President Kennedy's assasination, there was speculation that the government itself was involved.  There also was speculation that Lyndon Johnson may have had something to do with it, or the Mafia, or Fidel Castro, or the unions, and the list goes on.  Evidently Mr. Kennedy stepped on a few toes along the way, so it's hard to know if there was a conspiracy.  The Warren Commission said there was no conspiracy, but then, just how deeply did they really dig to get to the truth?  We may never know the answer to your question!
