November 24, 1963 - Richard M. Nixon interviewed following President John F. Kennedy's Assassination

Former Vice President Richard M. Nixon talks about his friendship with late President John F. Kennedy and the shooting of Lee Harvey Oswald by Jack Ruby in Dallas, Texas.

[@wmjohns881]

A lot of people don’t understand that Nixon and JFK really were friends. They were congressmen together, both served in the senate together. Nixon forgot to mention another similarity: both served in the US Navy as Officers.

[@AnthonyCatella]

Spoken in 1963 under difficult circumstances, yet it can serve as lecture for us today in our own troubled times. the lesson: we can be political opponents but we need not be political enemies, We are brothers and countrymen. Ironically Nixon looked at other people as his enemies and this ultimately brought about his own downfall in later years.

[@theuniongovernment997]

@@AnthonyCatella Exactly, at the end of the day we are all Americans. It's a shame that most politicians can't remember that fact anymore.

Nixon was always a crook. The missing and still secret Watergate tapes discussed the assassination which he referred to as 'the thing.' George Bush helped organize it for the CIA, he was just too young to run for POTUS yet, so his dad Prescott recruited Nixon to run and then Reagan until it was George's turn. The assassination got the Republicans several terms.

[@wiltchamberlainisthegoat13]

@@larryroberts9092 The two biggest culprits in the assassination were the CIA and LBJ. Having said that, I definitely believe that Nixon, at the very least, knew who was behind it. Nixon possibly just went along to get along so to speak. He was in Dallas the morning of 11-22-63, but took a flight back to Washington in the morning before the assassination took place. Why was Nixon in Dallas on 11-21-63 and the morning of 11-22-63 ?? Was he really at the Murchinsons’ mansion the evening before the murder? I believe that the Watergate break-in may have been done because Nixon wanted to know what information that the leadership of the Democrat Party may have had regarding Nixon’s possible involvement and/or knowledge about the assassination. I believe it was either HR Haldeman or Hunt who said he realized that when Nixon kept talking about the Bay of Pigs files, Nixon was actually speaking of the assassination. Nixon was concerned that once Watergate was being investigated “certain parties needed to be careful regarding those Bay of Pigs files.” This was code for files regarding the JFK assassination. Perhaps Nixon’s ultimate nightmare was him being tied somehow to the assassination. Was he a planner? I think it’s more likely he just went along with it to advance his political career.

[@eddieschwab864]

Based on that kind of words given from him, I can never understand for the life of me why the mainstream media hated him so much. Very conciliatory attitude concerning language and also certainly puts Nixon in a very sympathetic light

[@Lethgar_Smith]

He was an intelligent man and understood the world of politics but he was ruthless and corrupt and chose to engage in violent illegal activity to preserve his political power. Not to mention that he always had a contentious relationship with the press ever since he was Ike's running mate. The press didn't like him because, like a true conservative, he was always playing the victim card. "Woe is me, the press is always picking on me" Did that until he died.

[@eddieschwab864]

@@Lethgar_Smith how was he corrupt? The only thing Watergate was initially was a break-in at Democratic headquarters to prove their corruption the crime that Nixon was gotten for was the cover-up of the break-in he was obviously not responsible for the break-in itself.

[@Lethgar_Smith]

@@eddieschwab864 What did the President know and when did he know it? Nixon is the one who created the so-called "Plumbers" to stop leaks from within the White House. It was Nixon who offered a million dollars to the burglars in exchange for their silence. From the moment the scandal broke Nixon engaged in criminal behavior and acted more like a mob boss than a president. Not surprising considering where he came from and who he was connected to. You know, I had these exact same arguments with knuckle heads like you back in the late 70s and into the 80s. You are always trying to re-write history and some how dust off the moldy corpse of Tricky Dick and say, "Nixon wasn't so bad, his only crime was he got caught, that's all" Conservatives: political corruption is not a bad thing.

I don't get why some think Nixon was behind Kennedy's death. Yeah, they were rivals, but it wasn't heated like Johnson and the Kennedys. They respected each other, which the wafer-thin election of 1960 showcased. Had JFK lived, RFK wouldn't have run for president. He was motivated by his brother's career being unfinished, much like how Jack got into politics because the oldest brother died in war. Nixon, if he was chosen, would probably have gone up against Eugene McCarthy or Hubert Humphrey. While a flawed man for so long, it was eight years of embitterment which magnified his flaws, leading to him destroying himself over a third rate burglary

[@essessessesq]

well, Nixon was busy working with USSR and China trying to end the 8 year long Vietnam war that he inherited from Kennedy and Johnson, So he ignored his re-election campaign and he did not know what tricks his underlings were up to. The burglary flopped, and Nixon was vaguely aware that the legal expenses and family expenses of the burglars were being paid by the campaign, which was perfectly legal. The Establishment-owned press hated Nixon because as a young Congressman, he had exposed Roosevelt's aide Alger Hiss as a Soviet Agent,,,Hiss was a darling of the Establishment, a well-connected WASP who had been the chairman of the United Nations' organizing committee. So the Establishment press worked with the Democrat leadership to pin the blame on Nixon.

He was actually there with his son, W. Bush, and when the local police brought HW to the police station he left his now confused son W back at Dealy Plaza on his own, with no game plan. There are pictures folks on the internet of both being there. Do your research, and stay away from the MSM! By the way, Gerry Ford facilitated the coverup in Congress.

when i lived in dallas in 1985 i met a friend of Ruby's. He said the warren commission had questioned him and his brother because, "they talked to everyone jack had ever met." he went on to adamantly, ADAMANTLY tell me Ruby was far too unstable to be part of any conspiracy and the idea was "a joke." ruby was a super patriotic guy who had just walked up when they brought Oswald out and he thought Oswald looked smirky, proud of what he'd done. A hit man would have emptied his gun in Oswald to ensure his silence but ruby shot him once, then jumped on top of him trying to kick his ass. that's not the behavior of a hit man, it's the behavior of a enraged citizen, which is what he was.

[@joevignolor4u949]

There is a story of an incident at Jack Ruby's strip club where a cab driver dropped off a passenger at the club. The passenger told the driver he needed to go inside the club to get some change to pay for the taxi ride but then he never came back out. Eventually the driver went into the club, which was upstairs on the second floor, to confront the passenger and get his money. Apparently Ruby didn't like the cab driver coming into his club and confronting the passenger so he threw the driver down the flight of stairs. This is the behavior of someone with extreme anger management and impulse control problems. It wasn't the first time Jack had lost his temper and acted impulsively and it wouldn't be the last.

[@stephenkammerling9479]

You're probably right. Nixon, I think, was in private law practice at the time. When he lost the CA governor's race to Pat Brown in 1962, he angrily withdrew from politics and vented his liver to the media saying "you won't have Nixon to kick around anymore." After the assassination, Nixon got more involved in politics. He campaigned vigorously in 1966 for Republican candidates, buying favor with them. Like most people, he figured Johnson would be elected easily in 1964, less than a year after assassination, regardless of who Republicans ran. With Johnson's drop in popularity due to Vietnam, Republicans saw a chance in 1968, and Nixon cashed in all those political IOU's and won nomination. He thought he was going to run against Johnson, but Johnson withdrew, then Bobby Kennedy is assassinated leading him to run against Humphrey, WILD TIMES. By the way, and not that pertinent to this discussion, the guy who beat Nixon in 1962 met his political end four years later against Ronald Reagan. Reagan blew Pat Brown to the moon, and the rest as they say, is history.

RFK, had just won the California primary, so he had a great deal of momentum going forward. Therefore, I respectfully disagree with you. He would have United the Democratic party and would have ended our tragic involvement in the Vietnam war!!!

[@thewatchdog9541]

Hubert H. Humphrey had the Democratic nomination sewed up with a majority of delegates from states that did not hold primaries. LBJ still carried great influence over the party structure and would have seen to it that RFK did not get nominated. The party would have been split going into the general election campaign. Nixon still would have won it. RFK's assassination was tragic but he would not have been the Democratic nominee in 1968. Had the tragic event of his assassination not taken place, I think RFK would have passed on 1972 because McGovern re-wrote the rules on delegate selection, and Nixon would have had the upper hand as the incumbent, shaping events. 1976 would have been far more realistic and favorable for RFK, when the country after Vietnam and Watergate would have turned to a reformer. I think RFK would have picked Jimmy Carter as his running-mate to carry the South. Just my thoughts.

[@johnfarr2738]

I’ve read some alternate universe scenarios if RFK had lived. One being that he would of lost to Nixon in 68’ not run in ‘72, Nixon still gets caught up on watergate abs resigns in August of “74 with Ford finishing out his term but losing to RFK in 76’ With Jimmy Carter as his VP, winning again in ‘80 with Carter still as VP. Then after Kennedy’s 2 terms are up Carter runs vs.Reagan in ‘84 with Reagan winning and serving only 1 term until ‘88 and then everything gets back on Track with VP Bush winning the ‘88 election abs only serving 1 term until ‘92. So on that scenario Jimmy Carter is never president, only VP.

Nixon the paranoid was an analyst on even his own thoughts, so he always spoke haltingly, wanting to select just the right word, and if he tried to go quick or off the cuff for even one phrase, out came a gaffe, like "Two rights don't make a wrong, err..." And he was habitually analysing everyone and everything else in the room while he was talking, so he couldn't help but appear to be shifty-eyed, because suppressing peripheral information to stare straight at the camera was at odds with his basic thought pattern. I've met a few like that, including in my mirror. I don't speak that way, but I write that way, it usually takes me 15 minutes just to pop out a random KZbin comment. Thus I get why Dicky always sounded tricky, even when he had done the right thing. Then whenever he was guilty, he could never convince the nation to accept his lame excuse by opening his mouth. That talent of smooth speech focussed directly at the camera, no matter the facts, was mastered by somebody named Clinton. Surprisingly both men were re-elected. Not surprisingly I had to edit this once, err, twice.

And Buell Frazier, the guy who gave him and the package the ride into work that day witnessed LHO leave and walk away from the TSBD after the shooting. This is insufficient evidence to convict anyone. But the palm print on the assassination weapon? Interesting! Jim Leavelle told LHO that there would be forensics on the Smith & Wesson pistol in LHO's possession at the time of his arrest and bullets that killed J.D.Tippett that would link the two. (They did) Oswald's only comment was "then you are going to have to do that" meaning that rather than simply fess up, he was going to make the Police work for their evidence.

Nixon was a lawyer and within a day of JFK's assassination actually infers Oswald is guilty of the crime.

From his position as a politician and his stature as a lawyer and his use of the communication line of television, he is guilty of malfeasance. Freedom of speech is not freedom to misuse communication lines though a surprising number of people think that's exactly what it means. It sets a bad example and leads to loss of freedom of speech.
