1:18:04
The war is the biggest business
in America...

1:18:07
...worth $80 billion a year.
1:18:10
President Kennedy was murdered
by a conspiracy...

1:18:13
...planned at the highest levels
of our government...

1:18:16
...carried out by fanatical
and disciplined cold warriors...

1:18:19
...in the Pentagon and CIA's
covert-operation apparatus.

1:18:23
Among them, Clay Shaw, here before you.
1:18:26
It was a public execution,
and it was covered up by...

1:18:29
...like-minded people in the Dallas Police...
1:18:32
...the Secret Service, the FBl,
and the White House...

1:18:35
...up to and including J. Edgar Hoover,
and Lyndon Johnson...

1:18:40
...who were accomplices after the fact.
1:18:43
The assassination reduced the President
to a transient official.

1:18:48
His job is to speak as often as possible
of the nation's desire for peace...

1:18:53
...while he acts as a business agent
in the Congress...

1:18:56
...for the military and their contractors.
1:19:00
Some people say I'm crazy.
1:19:03
Southern caricature seeking higher office.
1:19:08
There's a simple way to determine
if I am paranoid.

1:19:11
Ask the two men who profited most
from the assassination...

1:19:14
...former President Johnson
and your new President, Nixon...

1:19:18
...to release the 51 CIA documents
pertaining to Lee Oswald and Jack Ruby.

1:19:23
Or the secret CIA memo...
1:19:25
...on Oswald's activities in Russia that
was destroyed while being photocopied.

1:19:29
These documents are yours.
1:19:32
The people's property. You pay for it.
1:19:35
But as the government sees you
as children...

1:19:37
...who might be too disturbed
to face this reality...

1:19:41
...or because you might lynch
those involved...

1:19:44
...you cannot see these documents
for another 75 years.

1:19:48
I'm in my 40's...
1:19:51
...so I'll have "shuffled off
this mortal coil" by then.

1:19:54
But I'm telling my eight-year-old son
to keep himself physically fit...

1:19:59
...so that one glorious September morning,
in 2038...
