We know Call of Duty: Black Ops will be set in the Cold War period, in which John F. Kennedy played a vital role as President of the United States. He was assassinated November 22nd 1963 in Dallas by Lee Harvery Oswald. The main evidence for a possible inclusion of something to do with the assassination is what appears to be a Mannlicher-Carcano shown in the recent release trailer, which was used by Oswald to shoot the President, at around 0:16.
Could this crucial moment in American and Cold War history be the classic controversial topic that every Call of Duty game brings to the table each year? In the original Modern Warfare, we had a nuclear blast, with thousands of troops and a whole city vaporized. The media also complained of it's violence, like Zakhaev's arm, and it's promotion of the army. In Call of Duty: World At War, violence was again an issue, especially the ability to kill un-armed troops. The most controversial of all came recently, in Modern Warfare 2, in the form of shooting hundreds of innocent civilians in the level 'Terminal', causing an outcry from the media. So could the Black Ops surprise story-line twist in history come in the form of assuming the role of Lee Harvey Oswald, taking the role of a new killer, trying to prevent it, or something along those lines? Nobody really knows, and knowing Treyarch, they'll have us all guessing right till the end. For now, we can only hope they give us a compelling, exciting story that will have us on the edge our seats the entire time.
Call of Duty: Black Ops is due for release 9th November.

still the same OG, but I've been low key
Highly possible. Great thinking.

The Vietnam war and the JFK Assassination? Both of America's weakest moments. If this is present in the game i'll bet 5 stores will be burnt down at the midnight release. Good thinking but frankly I think it's highly implausible from a business standpoint. (However, the attack on the White House on MW2 does make it plausible from the developer's point)
Also, this is a HIGHLY possible context for the solo sniper mission, you are to assassinate Oswald. Again, good thinking.

....no...
Abraham Lincoln? James Garfield? William McKinley?
But that's irrelevant anyway, just correcting you there.
