2) Jake Pickle - 1937 - politico later congressman closely associated with LBJ

3) John Connally - 1938

4) Horace Busby - 1945 - had to have been friends with Mac Wallace, I bet Connally was too

5) Jack Brooks - 1943 - he was a congressman and on Air Force One with LBJ

6) Harold Barefoot Sanders - 1947 - was US Attorney for Northern Texas - helped to cover up both murder of Henry Marshall and JFK assassination. Sanders also worked to cover up the JFK assassination while working in the Justice Dept under Lyndon Johnson.

7) Ronnie Dugger 1950 - Texas journalist spent 52 years and still can't figure out what happened to JFK. Used to work at KLBJ radio station. Still scratching his head on JFK assassination.

8) Jim Wright 1954 - another LBJ crony. Made it to US Speaker of the House.

10) Barr McClellan 1960 - worked with Ed Clark, LBJ's top lawyer. Barr MOST DEFINITELY knows what happened to JFK - he got the "Johnson treatment” as detailed in the Zapruder film.

12) George P. Bush 2002 - his granddad is a child molester and his father is a CIA drug running murderer. Family covers up JFK assassination. Grandfather GHW Bush says he can’t remember where he was during the JFK assassination, despite being a US Senate candidate who was staying in the Dallas Sheraton on 11-21-63 and also 11-22-63.

13) Allan Shivers 1931 - As governor of Texas, 1956, he directly accused LBJ of murdering Sam Smithwick. LBJ told this to Ronnie Dugger, that Smithwick was telling journalists that he (LBJ) had murdered Smithwick.
