I chose too write about an article in Upfront magazine named "The Death of a President" the article is about the 50 year anniversary of John F. Kennedy's assassination.  The reason why I really wanted to read this article is because for many years I have wondered about the famous killing of President Kennedy and I never truly knew what had really happened that day on November 22, 1963.  When I read this article I learned so much on what had taken place.

I also learned about many new facts about his killer Lee Harvey Oswald who was a massive enemy of the United States at the time.  Oswald was dishonorably discharged from the Marines, he also defected to the Soviet Union in 1959.  He had also spent quite some time in Cuba.  Two days after the assassination of the President Lee Harvey Oswald was shot a and killed by Dallas night club owner Jack Ruby, who died of cancer in prison in 1967.

Overall I thought that this article wasn't only very informational but now it has taught me many things about the President's death and his killer as well as his killer's killer.  This article was also very sad because in the beginning of the article it talks about this woman named Jenyce Gush who was at the scene in Dallas where President John F. Kennedy was shot and killed, it also talks about how she felt at that very moment when that tragic moment occurred.
