When calamity struck on November 22, 1963, the country began searching for the invisible hand in the assassination of President John Fitzgerald Kennedy. The United States was in complete shock when it learned that Kennedy had been shot at Dealey Plaza. 70% of Americans believe Kennedy was assassinated as part of some sort of conspiracy. Few know the facts than they believe, but most simply believe, but most simply believe as an escape from reality that a small man like Lee Harvey Oswald could kill a man as big as John F. Kennedy. Although people believe that Lee Harvey was accompanied in the murder, the fact is that there is no evidence proving that Lee Harvey Oswald was part of a conspiracy.

Lee Harvey Oswald was not afraid to share his beliefs about communism (Swanson 54).

When handed the map, Harper pointed to a spot to the left of Kennedy's car, completely debunking this conspiracy (3). Guidry 4Conspiracy is a business where many people thrive in their careers every day. The number of theories associated with the assassination of John F. Kennedy should show people that the conspirators themselves do not know the truth. If there was a conspiracy that turned out to be true, there would be no need to continue inventing more. Conspiracy theories about the assassination of John F. Kennedy do not present enough evidence to be considered fact..
