Wonderful new book: Betting on the Africans

Sure looks like it.

Hi, Jim,

Now this is something completely different, but I'd already have bet the farm that Kennedy's foreign policy doomed him, and there are so many foreign places to look. Now Africa gets mixed in with the usual suspects: Vietnam and Cuba topping the list.

And since I'm betting my non-existent farm, it looks from my pasture like the Bay of Pigs sealed the president's fate. That's why the designated patsy was passing out FPCC fliers in front of Clay Shaw's Trade Mart, why the patsy-to-be allegedly tried to get to Cuba via Mexico City, and why "Lee Oswald" tried to buy a rifle from Castro's favorite American gun-runner, Robert McKeown (who said "Oswald" offered him up to $10,000 for a rifle). McKeown's rifle would have looked SO GREAT at the TSBD!

Just my two cents.

Jim
