How Did Four Shots To Change America

Four Shots to Change America On a clear and sunny Dallas day, Lee Harvey Oswald brought to work with him, four shots to change America. And why wouldn’t Oswald take these shots? He was a failure at everything he tried his hand at and a loner who lost everything. Lee had dreamed of greatness but in fact had failed at all aspects of life except living itself.

The American public, who couldn’t fathom some loser, loner nobody killing the most powerful man in the world, suspected a conspiracy in the assassination. Since the USSR and Cuba doing it would be an act of war for either party
