Today Mr. Bruns gave his presentation on JFK. He is currently showing us a picture of his and his wife, asking us where that picture was taken. I think it was taken somewhere by an airplane. The picture was taken in Dallas, Texas, the day he was killed. His wife is wearing a pink Chanel suit, with a super cute hat... kinda... no wait, not really.President Kennedy went to Texas to help out with the election. There are 34 electoral votes in Texas. Those are deceided by the total number of people they have in Texas. The vice president Johnson was from Texas. Kennedy and Johnson did not get along very well, but Kennedy wanted Johnson so he could get more votes than Texs.The official airport where Jefferson landed was Love Field Ariport in Dallas, Texas. Kennedy chose not to ride in a car with a bubble top because he wanted to connect with the audience, The seat that Kennedy sat in was raised a little bit, which is called a jump seat. The parade was located in Dealy Plaza. The presedent was hit on Elm Street, by this "grassy knoll" area. We are now going to watch the video for like the billionth time today, I'm going to watch for the "umbrella man" that Vis told us about.FOUND HIM!
