I think the hurdle with Oswald was the fact a mafia hit man took him out when in theory the Mafia should have been treating Oswald as a messiah given the trouble the Kennedy brothers were giving organized crime.

I certainly wouldn't put the JFK assassination in the same conspiracy box as Elvis..lol

It is, and Jack Ruby was considered pathetic and not worth notice by the mafia.

Other CTs that stand the test of time have to do with walking on water and being born of a virgin. Still waiting for those to go away.
