John F. Kennedy (Democrat). His brother Robert (also a Democrat) was his Attorney General and ordered it. They didn't like him for some reason*. But you know what the Democrats always say when you bring things up like this, "it was a different age back then".
* My recollection is that Dr. King had a friend who was a member of the Communist party. The Kennedy's warned Dr. King not to associate with this friend. Apparently this other guy was a life-long friend of Dr. King's. Dr. King basically told Robert Kennedy that he was not going to be intimidated into abandoning his friend and that really pissed them off.

J Hoover wasn't the kind of guy who rolled over for the president. But I think Johnson was in office, maybe Kennedy.

Kennedy, which is funny because he was against race discrimination.

I'm not positive, was it Kennedy or Johnson?

george Bush, Jr.
is this another, "my bad guy is not as bad your bad guy argument"? or "my bad guy is just as bad as your bad guy argument, so give my bad guy a pass and move along argument"?
