Is this Lansky?

Maybe not, but it's a close resemblance:

A short video about Dallas--city of hate etc--nothing much new here but 5 minutes and 32 seconds in the vision cuts to George Wallace's announcement in Dallas on November 19, 1963, that he intended to run for the Democratic nomination in '64.

Seated at one of the tables is a guy with a scary resemblance to Lansky. Lansky was a keen follower of politics, especially Democratic politics, ever since he and Luciano gave their delegates to Roosevelt at the 1932 Democratic convention in Chicago.

Although seated, the guy looks like he's a little taller than Lansky's five foot five but it's hard to tell, especially since there's no-one else seated close enough to him to compare with.

I've been curious about Lansky's whereabouts at the time of JFK's assassination for years.

Any thoughts?

Not Lansky, Mark.

But it sure stinks of General Walker.

Not sure. But it's close, and there was reason why this guy was picked out for special attention.

If memory serves, Walker was a Wallace supporter.

Sounds about right. His face and hair look like Lansky but you're probably right.
