Very likely, it was Lee Harvey Oswald.

President Kennedy was assassinated on November 22, 1963 in Dallas, Texas, United States. Lee Harvey Oswald was charged with the crime. The Warren Commission concluded that Oswald had acted alone in killing the president.
Lee Harvey Oswald, a former Marine who defected to the Soviet Union and later returned, Oswald was arrested later that day on suspicion of killing the president and Dallas police officer J. D. Tippit. Oswald denied any responsibility for the murders. Two days later, before he could be brought to trial for the crimes, while being transferred under police custody from the police station to jail, Oswald was shot and killed by Jack Ruby (Jacob Rubenstein, who legally changed his name to Jack Leon Rubyon) on live television. He successfully appealed his conviction and sentence of death. As a date for his new trial was being set, he took ill and died.

Jimmy "the Weisel" Frattiano claimed that Giancana (the then Boss of Bosses out of Chicago) gave the go ahead for Marcello (of New Orleans) to carry out the assassination. It involved Castro (who had a grudge after finding out the CIA was behind the Bay of Pigs Invastion) so he got a patsy (Oswald) from the Russians to carry-out the deed. Marcello's beef was a result of RFK's investigations into organized crime. To cover the link to the Mafia, Marcello had Jack Ruby (a two bit night club owner in the Marcello organization) take out Oswald to seal his lips.
Giancana's beef with JFK was his impression that JFK renigged on promises to leave the Mafia alone since he felt he pulled strings in Chicago to get him elected.
Several weeks before the assassination, Oswald met with Cuban agents in Mexico. For inexplicable reasons, the FBI agents who were following up the Cuban connection as a part of the Warren Commission investigation, were recalled

President nixon says in one of his tapes the warren report saying lee harvey oswald as the lone assasin is the biggest hoax. i wished he has said more. in the movie, nixon meets some texans who say suppose JFK never runs in 1964-raises many questions. i think he was killed by extremists within USA. Oswald was as scapegoat. lets hope the truth comes out in the future.

Watch the Zapruder film and make up your own mine if Oswald was a 'lone' assassin.
