The mob did it. Or the CIA. Or Fidel Castro. Or Lyndon Johnson. Or the Soviets.
Half a century has passed since the assassination of President John F. Kennedy — one of the greatest crimes of the 20th century and the most abundant wellspring for conspiracy theorists in the history of the United States.
Polls consistently show that a clear majority of Americans believe that Lee Harvey Oswald did not act alone, and perhaps did not act at all, in the murder of the 35th president on a Dallas street on Nov. 22, 1963.

That's many more than those who believe the discredited theories that the Sept. 11 attacks were an inside job and that President Barack Obama was born outside the country and faked his birth certificate.

Part of the lure for conspiracy theorists is the irresistible concentration of power that surrounded the crime — held by both the gleaming young president and the forces, from the Kremlin to within his very administration, that would have had a motive.
But another part, say those who have studied the assassination and the conspiracy theories for decades, is the smallness of Oswald himself, the man blamed by the Warren Commission, the government’s first inquiry into the killing.

“It’s incredibly unsatisfying to believe that this guy, this insignificant person, could have done so consequential an act,” says Jeff Greenfield, who worked for Robert F. Kennedy and just released a book imagining how history might have played out had JFK lived.
