An account of his decision and action constitues one of John F. Kennedy's "Profiles in Courage" in his (JFK's)1975 book of that title.

I would like to challenge this forum to WORK. Get the details - publish them - prove answers. Show that what was done was legal or not. Did you know that Johnson beat the impeachment- by one vote.
(Who cast that vote?) ( or Ben Wade would have been President.)
How much can we accomplish, if we work together?
Nothing is Unimportant. I'll bet we know more, collectively, than we think we do.
We have a pack of real "Brains" here. Let's use them - together.

Thanx Bob, for your input. I never would have looked in JFK for the answer. I'm reading up on the various "Hearings" held after the war, where they were trying to "prove" that the South masterminded the Assassination. Dull reading. Also, it shows me that I need to read the Laws that were in effect at that time. (It's way over my head. JOHN
