The December 17, 1963 issue of NR covers the death of President Kennedy and its numerous consequences. In tomorrow’s edition of NROriginals, we share a few four selections from that issue: the editorial obituary, a John Chamberlain piece on what conservatives expect LBJ will do, a James Burnham column reviewing Kennedy’s foreign policy decisions, and a Frank Meyer column on the viability of the Barry Goldwater’s presidential bid. All very historic stuff, and all worth your while. NROriginals is a free newsletter that publishes every Friday – each contains selections from one issue of NR from the 50s, 60s, and 70s. You can sign up at http://www.nationalreview.com/newsletters. While there you should also sign up for our other free newsletters: The Goldberg File, Jonah’s every-Thursday humorous musings, Morning Jolt, Jim Geraghty’s daily a.m. take on the top political stories, and NRO Digest, our daily afternoon rundown of the best material on America’s premier conservative website.
