He was missing about 4 square inches of his skull, with an equal amount of brain missing. They might have saved his body, but his brain was going to be dead anyway.

No, the tricorders haven’t been invented yet….

Maybe but what would be the use ……..they wanted him dead and they would do it again.

{This may be a little too conspiracy theory}, but I don’t think it would matter if they could, I still don’t think they would.

I doubt it. The back of his head and most of his brain were shot off. Even if they could save his life, he’d probably be comatose and on life support - and that’s no way to live.

Not to be cruel ,but if he did survive, he would not make a great president anymore due to massive injuries to head and brain. Which would mean that Lyndon Johnson would be sworn in as president anyway.

So any theory that he was directly responsible in someway can be thrown out the window.

He’s not dead.

They may be able to save his life but the big problem would be the quality of life he would be left with. He is better off where he is..being a vegatable would be hard for this vibrant man. He is missed.

No however it wouldnt have been able to happen today, presidents are not allowed to be driven in open air vehicles. the irony is that the new rule took place after JFK was shot.

not unless there is a big gov. cover up to hide the fact that our scientists can now perform brain transplants. He took a rifle bullet to the head, nothing we have today can fix as much damage as he sustained.
