Assassination Main article: Assassination of John F. Kennedy The Kennedys and the Connallys in the presidential limousine moments before the assassination in Dallas President Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas, at 12:30 pm Central Standard Time on Friday, November 22, 1963. He was in Texas on a political trip to smooth over frictions 강남구in the Democratic Party between liberals Ralph Yarborough and Don Yarborough (no relation) 영어and conservative John Connally.[340] Traveling in a presidential motorcade through downtown 수학Dallas, he was shot once in the back, the bullet exiting via his throat, and once in the head.[341] Kennedy was taken to Parkland Hospital for emergency medical 대치동treatment, where he was pronounced dead 30 minutes later. He was 46 years old and had been in office for 1,036 days. Lee Harvey Oswald, an order filler at the Texas School 청담동Book Depository from which the shots were fired, was arrested for the murder of police officer J. D. Tippit and was subsequently charged with압구정동 Kennedy's assassination. He denied shooting anyone, claiming he was a patsy,[342][343] and was shot by Jack Ruby on November 24, before he could be prosecuted. Ruby was arrested and convicted for the murder of Oswald. Ruby successfully appealed his conviction and death sentence but became ill and died of cancer on January 3, 1967, while the date for his 강남구new trial was being set. President Johnson quickly issued an executive order to create the Warren 영어Commission—chaired by Chief Justice Earl Warren—to investigate the assassination. The 수학commission concluded that Oswald acted alone in killing Kennedy and that Oswald was not part of any conspiracy.[344] The results of this investigation are disputed by 대치동many.[345] The assassination proved to be a pivotal moment in U.S. history because of its impact on the nation, and the ensuing political repercussions. A 2004 Fox News청담동 poll found that 66% of Americans thought there had been a conspiracy to kill President Kennedy, while 74% thought that there had been 압구정동a cover-up.[346] A Gallup Poll in November 2013 showed 61% believed in a conspiracy, and only 30% thought that Oswald did it alone.[347] In 1979 the U.S. House Select Committee on Assassinations concluded that it believed "that Kennedy was probably assassinated as a result of a conspiracy. The committee was unable to identify the other gunmen or the extent of the 강남구conspiracy."[348] In 2002 historian Carl M. Brauer concluded that the public's "fascination with the 영어assassination may indicate a psychological denial of Kennedy's death, a mass wish ... 수학to undo it".[344] Funeral Main article: State funeral of John F. Kennedy President Kennedy's family leaving his funeral at the U.S. Capitol Building A Requiem Mass 대치동was celebrated for Kennedy at the Cathedral of St. Matthew the Apostle on November 25, 1963.[349] Afterwards, Kennedy was interred in a small plot, 20 by 30 ft., in 청담동Arlington National Cemetery. Over a period of three years (1964–1966), an estimated 16 million people visited his grave. On March 14, 압구정동1967, Kennedy's remains were disinterred and moved only a few feet away to a permanent burial plot and memorial. It was from this memorial that the graves of both Robert and Ted Kennedy were modeled. The honor guard at Kennedy's graveside was the 37th Cadet Class of the Irish Army. Kennedy was greatly impressed by the Irish Cadets on his last official visit to Ireland, so 강남구much so that Jacqueline Kennedy requested the Irish Army to be the honor guard at her 영어husband's funeral.[350] Jacqueline and their two deceased minor children were later interred 수학in the same plot. Kennedy's brother Robert was buried nearby in June 1968. In August 2009, Ted was also buried near his two brothers. John F. Kennedy's grave 대치동is lit with an "Eternal Flame". Kennedy and William Howard Taft are the only two U.S. presidents buried at Arlington.[351][352] According to the JFK Library, "I Have 청담동a Rendezvous with Death", by Alan Seeger "was one of John F. Kennedy's favorite poems and he often asked his wife to 압구정동recite it".[353] Personal life, family, and reputation Further information: Kennedy family The First Family in Hyannis Port, Massachusetts, 1962 The Kennedy brothers: Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy, Senator Ted Kennedy, and President John F. Kennedy in 1963 The Kennedy family is one of the most established political families in the United States, having produced a president, three senators, three강남구 ambassadors, and multiple other representatives and politicians, both at the federal and s영어tate level. While a Congressman, Kennedy embarked on a seven-week trip to India, 수학Japan, Vietnam, and Israel in 1951, at which point he became close with his then 25-year-old brother Bobby, as well as his 27-year-old sister Pat. Because 대치동they were several years apart in age, the brothers had previously seen little of each other. This 25,000-mile (40,000 km) trip was the first extended time they had s청담동pent together and resulted in their becoming best friends.[354] Bobby would eventually play a major role in his brother's 압구정동career, serving as his brother's Attorney General and presidential advisor.[354] Bobby would later run for president in 1968 before his assassination, while another Kennedy brother, Ted, ran for president in 1980. Kennedy came in third (behind Martin Luther King Jr. and Mother Teresa) in Gallup's List of Widely Admired People of the 20th century.[355][356] Kennedy was a life member of the National Rifle 강남구Association.[357][358] Wife and children Kennedy met his future wife, Jacqueline Lee 영어"Jackie" Bouvier (1929–1994), when he was a congressman. Charles L. Bartlett, a journalist, 수학 introduced the pair at a dinner party.[359] They were married a year after he was elected senator, on September 12, 1953.[360] After suffering 대치동a miscarriage in 1955 and a stillbirth in 1956 (their daughter Arabella), their daughter Caroline was born in 1957 and is the only surviving member of JFK's 청담동immediate family. John Fitzgerald Kennedy Jr., nicknamed "John-John" by the press as a child, was born in late November 1압구정동960, 17 days after his father was elected. John Jr., a graduate of Brown University, died in 1999 when the small plane he was piloting crashed en route to Martha's Vineyard.[361] In 1963, months before JFK's assassination, Jackie gave birth to a son, Patrick. However, he died after 2 days due to complications from birth. Popular image Kennedy and his wife were younger in comparison to the presidents and first ladies who 강남구preceded them, and both were popular in the media culture in ways more common to pop singers and movie stars than politicians, influencing fashion trends and becoming the subjects of numerous photo spreads in popular magazines. Although Eisenhower had allowed presidential press conferences to be filmed for television, Kennedy was the first president to ask for them to be broadcast live and made good use of the medium.[362] In 1961 the Radio-Television News Directors Association presented Kennedy with its highest honor, the Paul White Award, in recognition of his open relationship 압구정동with the media.[363] Mrs. Kennedy brought new art and furniture to the White House, and directed its restoration. They invited a range of artists, writers and intellectuals to rounds of White House dinners, raising the profile of the arts in America. On the White House lawn, the Kennedys established a swimming pool and tree house, while Caroline attended a preschool along with 10 other children inside the home. The president was 강남구 closely tied to popular culture,
