    This is so special. I admire the way that Mrs. Kennedy raised her children. They curtsied and bowed so politely. It was hear-warming to watch. What a fine job she did.

    There's not a military man alive that didn't feel for that little boy and remember his salute. This was the last supercarrier built before the Nimitz class. CV-67, in 1967. She was a modification of the Kitty Hawk class, but stood alone. I had heard that the skipper's quarters had a famous picture of John John on its wall and that it was adorned with ribbons or something when John John was killed in 1999 in his Piper.

She said that when she went to say hello to Jackie, she looked at her in anger and looked away. Lady Bird thought: " Am I suppose to feel guilty that I'm alive". Yeah that's what she should be thinking knowing her husband was part of the assassination. Jackie wanted her husband alive and he wasn't there.

I had a feeling LBJ might be part of the assassination but I heard an interesting theory last week: that Richard Nixon was behind the assassination of Robert Kennedy. He knew that if RFK won, he would never become President. It makes it more plausible because I read Johnson supported RFK and did not want Nixon to win.
