    Fritz Hollings lived for another 59 years after this. To the end, he remained most proud of his endorsement of and friendship with John Kennedy.

    If WW3 took place in 1962,
    Oswald would have probably been killed, while President Kennedy would have survived in his shelter...
    And today he woul still be alive at 106 years old.

    Really incredible how no Democratic nominee had ever campaigned in South Carolina up until 1960. Of course it had only become competitive in the last two Presidential races and toward the end of this race was thought to be leaning towards the Republicans. Hollings' and Kennedy's forceful campaigning narrowly kept the state in the Democratic column.

    More than rumors, had Senate Robert F. Kennedy lived and won the Democratic nomination in 1968, the likelihood Governor/Senator Fritz Hollings would have been chosen as Senator Robert Kennedy's vice president selection.

    If the Secret Service had been on the cars two rear bumper foot stands with hand griips the shots would have been blocked. JFK did not want them there because he wanted himself and Jackie to be seen. It was always said that the rear bumper foot stands were not in the right place to protect the President anyway. This video clearly shows where the rear bumper foot stands were and would have protected the President.
    Also, it was always very obtuse about how Clint Hill got onto the back of the car with Jackie. Earlier windows of the footage show him riding on the side of the back up car. Somehow he managed to run up and jump on JFK's car stepping onto the bumper footstand and leaping onto the back of the car. Many accounts had him somehow walking along. So many strange stories.
    Strange these bumper stands were never brought up or revealed in the hundreds and hundreds of footage and photos I saw about the assasination. The bumper stands that were not there are there. Very mysterious. The hand rail to hang on is clearly visible on the right side of the car. More disproven conspiracy stories. It just goes on and on.
    Emory Roberts rode shotgun in the back up car head of the Secret Service Detail that day at Dealey Plaza. When the President got shot, Emory Roberts was in charge thereafter. Nobody ever talks about that. He took charge of everything, and immediately got Johnson onto Air Force One to leave Dallas and be sworn in going to Washington or if necessary a safe place to protect him. Emory was my neighbor in Wheaton, Md. on Holdridge Rd.
    Most of this is in Dealey Plaza - The End of Camelot by William Wells
    In the early morning it was scheduled to rain in Dallas and the Secret Service was setting up to install the canopy on the car. The forecast changed and the President wanted to be seen by the crowds, and besides the President did not want ir put on. So it was not put on.
    So as to not make JFK negligent in his death, it was bandied about that there were no foot stands on the rear of the car for Secret Service to ride on. Clearly you can see two foot stands on the rear bumper of the car with handrails to hang on. Clint Hills is stepping on one to get onto the back of the car to be with Jackie. There is just bogus story after bogus story surrounding JFK's assasination.

      ​@ryantrent2114 That Democratic Governor Fritz Hollings of South Carolina who was campaigning for Kennedy in 1960 was elected six years later in 1966 to the US Senate. He served 38 years from 1966 to 2004. Since then after he retired no Democrat has ever been elected to the US Senate from South Carolina from then on.
