Nelson's LBJ Mastermind book

[David Sellers]

Phil Nelson, H. Howard Hunt, Barr McClelland, Billy Sol Estes, Madeleine Duncan Brown,
not to mention Jack Ruby and many other experts, including Nigel Turner and Jim Fetzer.

All this shows us is these folks would not be privy to those above the president who were pulling his strings. Most Americans believe the president actually has full powers to govern and set his own path, but this is not true. He is given a mandate to follow and if he deviates from it a la JFK he is removed from office or weakened to the point of being ineffectual in his policies (i.e. Bill Clinton and Richard Nixon).

The men around and above the president are the key ones and we couldn't expect folks like the ones you mentioned to know who they were so they think LBJ was the end all in this matter.

Mr. Morrow does seem to know about these men (or least some of them) so it is really baffling to me why he thinks LBJ was the mastermind.

I agree with Mr. Drago that this is not an issue worth arguing over, but the reality of that will of course will be determined by each of you.
