PROBLEM: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity John F. Kennedy is Neutral . BOSTON (Reuters) - More than half a century after  U.S. President John F. Kennedy  was struck down by an assassinâs bullet in Dallas  Texas  the United States is due on Thursday to release the final files on the investigation into the killing that rattled a nation.

Academics who have studied  Kennedy âs slaying on Nov. 22  1963  said they expected the final batch of files to offer no major new details on why Lee Harvey Oswald gunned down the first and only Irish-American Roman Catholic to hold the office.
They also feared that the final batch of more than 5 million total pages on the  Kennedy  assassination held in the National Archives will do little to quell long-held conspiracy theories that the 46-year-old presidentâs killing was organized by the Mafia  by Cuba  or a cabal of rogue agents.
Thousands of books  articles  TV shows and films have explored the idea that  Kennedy âs assassination was the result of an elaborate conspiracy. None have produced conclusive proof that Oswald  who was shot dead a day after killing Kennedy  worked with anyone else  though they retain a powerful cultural currency.
âMy students are really skeptical that Oswald was the lone assassin â said Patrick Maney  a professor of history at Boston College. âItâs hard to get our minds around this  that someone like a loner  a loser  could on his own have murdered  Kennedy  and changed the course of world history. But thatâs where the evidence is.â

In 1992  Congress ordered that all records relating to the investigation into  Kennedy âs death should be open to the public  and set a final deadline of Oct. 26  2017 for the entire set to be made public.
 Kennedy âs assassination was the first in a string of politically motivated killings  including those of  his  brother Robert F. Kennedy and civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr.  that stunned the United States during the turbulent 1960s.  He  remains one of the most admired U.S. presidents.

PROBLEM: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Carter Page is Neutral . FBI had an independent basis for investigating  Carter Page : Our view

Thatâs the backdrop to this weekendâs release of a Democratic memo countering what amounted to a Republican hit job on the FBI and the Justice Department for their handling of a wiretap of  Carter Page   a former adviser to the Donald Trump campaign.
The Democratsâ memo neatly counters many of the Republican allegations of sinister doings behind the 2016 wiretap of  Page . The release  by the Republican-led House Intelligence Committee  was as welcome as it was belated. True to form  Trumpâs focus was on himself. He railed against the Democratic memo  tweeting that it âis a total political and legal BUST. Just confirms all of the terrible things that were done. SO ILLEGAL!â
That memo  put out more than three weeks ago  accused the FBI of using an explosive dossier written by former British spy Christopher Steele to persuade a judge on the secret Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court  also known as the FISA court  to grant a warrant for a wiretap in 2016 on  Page . The key allegation: The FBI failed to inform the judge that Steele had been hired to do opposition research funded by Hillary Clintonâs campaign.
Thatâs quite a different picture than the one painted by Republicans  who had hyped the  Page  wiretap as the scandal of the century.

SOLUTION: no

PROBLEM: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Al Franken is Neutral . WASHINGTON (AP) â "Many of you have jobs  many of you have families " Sen. Al Franken told Democratic leaders gathered on the eve of a hotly contested governor's election in Virginia. After an expectant pause  he leaned into the microphone and added  "Ignore them."
 Franken  was jokingly beseeching activists to get out the vote the following day  in what ended up as a surprisingly decisive victory for Democratic candidate Ralph Northam. But the moment  barely two weeks ago  also underscored how high the one-time "Saturday Night Live" comic had risen in  his  party's firmament.
After spending much of  his  nearly nine years as senator trying to shed  his  funnyman image and quietly digging into issues like internet access and consumer protection   he  was now a draw at political events and mentioned by some as a 2020 presidential possibility. Months of savaging some of President Donald Trump's appointees had turned the Harvard-educated Franken into a weapon of choice for Democrats eager to attack the administration and energize party voters.  He  brandished comedy as a bludgeon.
Now   Franken 's rising trajectory has been interrupted by allegations  he  had physical contact with four women without their permission.  He  faces a Senate ethics investigation for improper conduct and hasn't been seen publicly since the first claims of misbehavior last week.  His  future is suddenly unclear.
"It's always a great disappointment when leaders you like and admire do bad stuff " said Mike Lux  a liberal Democratic consultant. He said it was premature to say how the allegations would affect  Franken 's career. But  Lux added  "If more incidents come to light   he 's got a real problem."
Los Angeles radio anchor Leeann Tweeden last week said  Franken  had put  his  tongue in her mouth during a 2006 USO tour  before  he  became senator. She also posted a photo of  him  with  his  hands above her chest as she slept wearing a flak vest aboard a military plane. Franken  66  has apologized.
In a story published Wednesday by the Huffington Post  two more women alleged that  Franken  touched their buttocks during campaign events in 2007 and 2008.
 Franken  canceled a sold-out appearance in Atlanta to promote  his  book  "Al Franken  Giant of the Senate."  His  aides have said  he 's "spending time with  his  family and doing a lot of reflecting."

 Franken  came to the Senate after a months-long recount gave  him  a 312-vote victory in  his  2008 election.  He  immediately distanced  himself  from  his  decades of professional comedy  which included off-color jokes about rape and disparaging women  and avoided national reporters.
Instead   he  focused on building a reputation as a studious senator  pushing legislation to crack down on Wall Street rating agencies  he  considered complicit in the 2007 economic collapse. As a signature issue   he  adopted the push to protect "net neutrality " an Obama administration policy barring internet providers from blocking or hindering websites. The Trump administration's Federal Communications Commission said Tuesday it will dismantle the rule.
 Franken  helped shape parts of former President Barack Obama's health care law and tackled farm and mental health issues.  He  easily secured a second six-year term in 2014  defeating a Republican businessman.
 Franken  appeared on  his  first Sunday network talk show late in  his  first term amid signs  he  was bolstering  his  national profile. But it was Trump's emergence that teased out a new  Franken  and had  him  pivot from staid senator to liberal attack dog.
In withering interrogations in the Senate   Franken  has clashed with a parade of Trump Cabinet appointees.
" He  made those guys sweat " former Senate Democratic aide Jim Manley said. " He 's got the ability to channel some of the populist rage against the administration."
 Franken  had a celebrated clash last month with Jeff Sessions over the attorney general's evolving descriptions of  his  contacts with Russian officials during last year's presidential campaign. Sessions  a Trump campaign official  told Congress in January  he 'd not communicated with the Russians.  He  later said  he  didn't recall such contact. Then last month   he  told the Senate Judiciary Committee  he 'd had no "improper discussions" with them.
