At this rate he could have added further testimony from 'a friend of a friend' if he was really determined to sell the thesis.
The onset of dementia does offer a generous interpretation of the conclusions Dulles pushed on the Warren Commission though.
He directly quoted Adm Burke, William Bundy and Eleanor Elliot -- so it's not as if the thesis isn't supported.
I'd love to see a cogent explanation for Dulles ditching the BOP to spend crucial time in Puerto Rico.
