JFK Blackmailed as a "Soviet Agent"? -- A Hypothesis
#3
Hello Charles,

The hypothetical scenario you offer is not at all implausible. I don't necessarily feel that there had to be something far more damaging than allegations of... well, whatever would be sufficient to make the president vulnerable to sexual blackmail during the era of separate beds for Rob and Laura Petrie. But, it's a thought-provoking hypothesis.

As a young man venturing out on his own, JFK shared in common with his sister, Kathleen, an early sense of individuality in relation to the rest of the family; not being the paternally "favored son" provided freedom for developing intellectual independence outside the mold. His intellect and inquisitiveness must surely have been obvious to all he encountered, I believe, even in the earliest days of his secondary education.

The fact that our familar OSS veterans who became the executives of CIA made their original beds in the company of British intelligence demonstrates an established relationship between those who may have had information relevant to your conjecture, and those who would have been in a position to exploit that information.

How interesting would have been the autobiography of John F. Kennedy?

As for Seymour Hersh, whatever his personal feelings may have been towards the Kennedys prior to Dick Goodwin's resignation from the McCarthy campaign to join with Bobby's last crusade, I'm pretty sure they didn't improve thereafter.

You're a great writer.

Thanks for reading.
