An impossible multiplicity of responsibility is painstakingly demonstrated, as are multiple options involving the bubbletop that were not used in Dallas.ĥ) The premature approval of Kennedy’s speech site in Dallas by members of the Secret Service, over other options, which determined the type of security used for the site, the choice of the route used to get to the destination, and even the speed of JFK’s limousine, is detailed in full.Ħ) Despite the rabid, right-wing environment in Dallas, it is shown that there were allegedly no threats found by the agency in this troubled city, a seeming impossibility. Agents on or near the rear of JFK’s car would have thwarted his death.Ĥ) The popular and widespread myth that President Kennedy personally ordered the bubbletop off his limousine in Dallas is likewise shown to be a convenient exaggeration. No other book has ever examined the conduct of the Secret Service in such voluminous and authoritative detail.Ģ) The long-standing and wide-reaching myth that President Kennedy was difficult to protect and somehow, directly or indirectly, made his own tragic death easier for an assassin or assassins is exploded for the first time in devastating and authoritative detail.ģ) The fraudulent notion that JFK had ordered the agents off the rear of his limousine in Dallas is conclusively debunked. No other author or government investigative body has successfully interviewed and contacted as many of these men as has author Palamara.
