Would you be willing to consider Lee Harvey Oswald as the answer?

LH Oswald

Another vote for Lee Harvey Oswald.

I think it was Fozzie Bear. He did it because nobody was laughing at
his jokes. I imagine the scenario went much like this:

Fozzie: "Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side!!" 

-Silence. A cricket chirps softly-

FOZZIE: "I said, to get to the other SIDE!!" -Taps Microphone- "Is
this thing on? Ernie, can you hear me?"

ERNIE: - Says nothing, there's a banana in his ear, he can't hear anything.

FOZZIE: "Cookie Monster? Count? Oscar?"

COOKIE MONSTER: -singing, not paying attention- "C is for coo-kie,
good enough for meee..."

THE COUNT: "Nine hundred thousand, nine hundred ninety-six...Nine
hundred thousand, nine hundred ninety-seven...Nine hundred thousand,
nine hundred - Vait! Vere vas I? Ooooooohhhhhh!! Lost count AGAIN!! Oh
vell, I vill start over.  One...Two...Three..."

OSCAR the GROUCH: "THAT'S THE STUPIDEST JOKE I EVER HEARD!!" -reaches
into his trash can, throws tomatoes- "BOOOOOO!!"
 
BIG BIRD: "It's okay, Fozz, not everyone can be as witty and charming
as our President, John F. Kennedy!"

FOZZIE: "I'LL GET YOU JOHN F. KENNEDYYYYYY!!!" -pauses to throw a pie
into Bert's face - "IF IT'S THE LAST THING I EVER DOOOO!!"

But of course it wasn't the last thing he ever did.  Fozzie went on to
make generations of people laugh - well, maybe not generations. Fozzie
went on to make hundreds of people laugh - no, I guess that's not
right either...
Fozzie went on to make four children and a odd man named Larry laugh
uproariously with his signature dry delivery and repitoire of joke
classics such as "A horse walked into a bar" and "Why did the chicken
cross the road? Parts 3 and 4".

But sometimes, if you watch closely, you can see a strange smile
appear on the bear's face as the people laugh, as if to say "Take that
JFK! NOW who's the funniest! Now. Who's. The. Funniest..."

I know a 100% correct answer

"it was not me"

It also could have been Elmo. Everyone kept tickling him, and one day
he just snapped.

Lee Harvey Oswald or Oliver Stone. You be the judge.

There will always be public doubts about that shooting. The official
answer was Oswald acted alone, but firearms experts have tried and
failed to shoot identical rifles at the rate those bullets came out,
not to mention hitting anything at that rate of fire.

Plus, as is often the case, the case was not always handled  very
well, and the decision to keep a lot of details secret for many years
definitely brought the kooks into the game, since no one could
disprove their wildest statements.

It was supposed KIA Msgt. from the USAF. His name was Warren Harwood,
he was an assasin working in the SouthAmerican sector of the Company's
wet- ops chapter. At the urgings of the Army Cheif of staff and the
Vice President, he was smuggled up thru the Big bend area and into
Texas. On that fatal day he and another nameless shooter were in Dealy
Plaza. The anonymous killer in the window of the schoolbook
depository, firing a compact Mauser breakdown rifle. The Msgt. on the
grassy knoll. An M-1 carbine w/ aparatrooper stock. It was this man
and this gun that fired the fatal shots to the front in Kennedy's
upperchest and head. The bullets were designed to fragment on impact
and leave little or no evidence. Another interesting note. Harwood was
on psycho leave at the Presidio's hospital in San Francisco a few
years later. Because they said he was distraught over his wife leaving
him for another man. A little while later the Zodiac killings started.
They continued until Harwood was discharged and sent overseas as an
advisor. He was never heard from again, though a copycat kept up with
the correspondence to the news and police.

"The bullets were designed to fragment on impact and leave little or no evidence"


Therefore they would leave little or no damage

I have to say I think the question a rather ill-formed one. There are
over 40 major published works that are primarily or solely concerned
with the Kennedy assassination that have or have had considerable
national (and international) sales. The theories are numerous, and a
simple search on the internet, or viewing of the article of Wikipedia
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_F._Kennedy_assassination) reflects
the multiplicity of views and conflicting "evidence".

Kennedy's death, however, is best seen not as an act in isolation but
in the context of the President's public life and career . One of the
best works on this is Robert Dallek's biography, "John F. Kennedy: An
Unfinished Life" (Penguin, 2003). Dallek, with whom I am inclined to
agree, concludes that Oswald was indeed responsible and points out
that the case against him is much stronger, and much more plausible,
than any of the other theories when based on objective evidence.
Gerald Posner's book "Case Closed" (Random House, 1993), is a good
refutation of many of the conspiracy theories that are even today
wondering about.
