JFK's assasination was a conspiracy

Thank you for agreeing to the debate! I'll dive right in! I would like to start this debate off by saying that I was previously of the opinion that President John Fitzgerald Kennedy was assassinated by Lee Harvey Oswald as an act to gain attention towards himself, because that was the king of person he was. Upon further investigation, however, I have come to the realization that there is absolutely no way that Lee Harvey Oswald could have assassinated the former President of the United States. For starters, as a Marine, he was given the shooting title of "Yeoman," which means that he was a very poor shooter, who could barely hit a stationary target, never mind hit one of the most difficult shots ever made through trees, while the President was riding away from his. Second, he was spotted in the second floor brake room by a former employee of the Texas Book Depository 45 seconds after the alleged shooting of the President. This might not be of such consequence, but he would have had to sprint down 4 flights of stairs, across the 125 foot length of the building to purchase a bottle of Coca Cola from a vending machine, and then sit down at the table, not winded at all. Third, there have been numerous eyewitness reports of there having been two men seen in the window of the Texas Book Depository, which would clearly show that it had not been Oswald who had assassinated the President. Fourth, Lee Oswald was set up as an elaborate hit man. His public image was carefully engineered to cover up his undercover work with the United States government, for which he worked as an ANTI-COMMUNIST spy, which I find very interesting, as Oswald was frequently painted as an ardent Communist who wanted to kill the leader of the capitalist world. My final argument as to why Oswald couldn't have killed JFK will be about how Lee Harvey Oswald was never told what in the world he was being arrested for, and was assassinated by a known Mob hit man, Jack Ruby. One should also note that there had been an assassination plot earlier in the month in Chicago that was found out, so JFK did not go on the motorcade. The next set of arguments that I would like to make is on the JFK Almeida Plan to assassinate the communist leader of Cuba, Fidel Castro. The mob had been involved in a few plots with the CIA and FBI to help take down Fidel Castro, so that they could set up their "business's" again in Cuba after Castro kicked them out. Unfortunately for them, their plans fell through, so they lost out on the Cuban dug market. Luckily for them they did have some men in very high places within the Kennedy Administration, with 7 of Kennedy's advisers who were entrusted with the information of the JFK Almeida Plan having mob ties. Carlos Marcello, Godfather in the New Orleans area absolutely hated Jack Kennedy for how hard he was coming down on the Mob after his election as Senator, and eventually President. He had men inside of the Kennedy Administration that had informed him of the TOP-SECRET JFK Almeida Plan that was set to take place just days after JFK's planned motorcade in Dallas. Marcello, along with several other Mob kingpins such as Godfather Santo Trafficante, and hit man Johnny Rosseli planned to assassinate the president in his motorcade in Chicago, their plan was found out, and the president did not go to the motorcade. There was also supposed to be an assassination in Traficante's domain of Tampa Florida, but the president escaped unscathed. Dallas was their last chance to kill the president, and they did. Not Lee Harvey Oswald. If you need any more evidence, read the following quote: 'YEAH, I HAD the son of a b***h killed. I'm glad I did. I'm sorry I couldn't have done it myself!" -Carlos Marcello Some sources: Legacy of Secrecy http://www.nypost.com...
