Tracy Riddle Wrote:No one is questioning your right to express your opinion. But it would be a good idea for a published author to have a broader and deeper knowledge of a subject, and be willing to learn from the work of other researchers who have spent decades on this subject, and related topics like Vietnam, the Cold War, the CIA, etc.

I wholeheartedly agree, without a doubt and without a second thought, if the providing information is [true], but, if the providing information is [untrue] and therefore needs to be corrected should it not? Or, do we continue to provide dis-information? To [human] is to error.

This is a perfect example of what I mean:

I did not copy his entire post only because I couldn't read past his first point of trying to sound intelligent. He says:

"1) All researchers are not created equal. Some of the researchers you have engaged here and on the DPF have been at this for a long time and, despite my occasional disagreement with certain interpretations or conclusions, they have earned their gravitas and respect, they have made their bones and chops. You're a relative newbie at this and have not yet earned an automatic gravitas. By all means, make your claims, but they would be better accepted if you do it with more humility. This discussion is at a considerably higher level than a schoolyard fight."

I suppose I didn't make my claims with "humility?" In the beginning of my post, I said, Jim, "this is partially true", then, I explained myself in-full. I'm the one who immediately gets attacked by the opposing idiots is that not humble enough? Sounds to me that if it's not their way it's the highway. I may not be humble when it comes to providing facts to prove my case, but then again, they're two faced.

I would like to point out that in his post, I had no earthly idea that we were to suppose to provide interpretations and/or conclusions and present them as factual evidence! Slaps my forehead, now I know!

Lastly, I have no idea what he means when he says I'm a "newbie" when none of these people lived the life I have, now, I find that ironic. I suppose you have to "earn" your way into a spot that I've lived a life of, now that I find funny as hell. I wonder what some of their bona-fides are?

The last sentence I find particularly hilarious when at first, they could not except my "humble" post, now isn't that funny?

Scott is beginning to resemble Jim Fetzer. He was so knocked out, he didn't know he was knocked out.

We all are Tom. We've all been watching this slow motion car crash. Scott you are all over the place like a dog's breakfast but what exactly are you trying to say? JKG didn't go to Vietnam? Because he was in India? Because you can find no evidence he did? Where are you looking? Why aren't you looking? The historical record is pretty well established that he did. It is up to you to prove he didn't. So while you feel you have a constitutional right to your opinion (in your country) there is no obligation for others to take your opinion seriously. Also you don't have a right to your own facts. You have presented none.

Magda, with all due respect, I do owe you an explanation as to why I say what I say. Although, history tells us this letter exist through text books, the letter in question does not exist at the JFK Library. My source also says this never happened, no such letter was ever written nor did Mr. Kennedy ever send JKG to Saigon, now, it is your choice to believe what you want. You have that God given right to believe the 6-8 books written about JKG visiting Vietnam which some even contradict themselves regarding the trip, and if you want too, you may even believe in this imaginary letter, by all means you have that right. I have now produced my evidence, now, I ask, can anyone please produce the letter? Surely, with so much widespread information regarding this letter it must be somewhere if it's not at the JFK Library. Surely, someone has it. Instead of producing books to back up your claims provide the letter!

Tell me, is it really because no one wants to give Senator Mansfield the credit is that it? Everyone wants to discredit Mansfield?

I'm speechless.

Scott Kaiser Wrote:The [reason] you will NOT find any letter to the president regarding Vietnam is because Kennedy sent Galbraith to India as the Ambassador to India in 1961. Now, any decisive measures regarding the events surrounding Vietnam the [president] should make is for the president and only the president to take.

As MY second [cousin] Congressman Donald J. Irwin would say. I hope I'm getting through to you people!

IOW, slaps his fore....., go big, or go home!

A patriot would notify NARA a.s.a.p. that the following information, classified Top Secret at one time, is false or "forged". NARA, of course, would require substantial evidence because Scott's challenge to authenticity is an extraordinary claim.:

On the 40th anniversary of the leak to the press, the National Archives, along with the Kennedy, Johnson, and Nixon Presidential Libraries, has released the complete report.
