A 47-year old politician is rising through the ranks using charisma. He's a RINO (Republican In Name Only) who wins a Senate seat in Texas. When he starts to run for President, a journalist delves into his background and finds he was born in Dallas the exact moment Kennedy was killed. The reporter doesn't believe in reincarnation, but nonetheless he finds amazing similarities between this guy and Kennedy...not the backgrounds in which they grew up, but personalities and the way they handle crises, skirt chasing, etc. Soon, the reporter finds he's not the only one "on to this." Sinister forces are after this new guy, and the reporter must decide if he should report the story, or do what he can to stop it.

Might consider reading it. As long as it isn't too politically focused or biased. Do you write?

Have always wanted to write books, but settled on writing articles. You can take a book and make it your own world. My neighbor writes books and when he told me about his main character, I thought "hell, I can do better than that."

Yea, I write as well. It's very difficult, but like you said it allows you to be so much more creative. If you could keep it focused on the strange aspect of the plot I'd definitely be interested. Or have something unknown to the reader for quite some time.

I like the premise behind it, but I wonder if it would work with the reincarnated Kennedy as your main character? Eh, probably not -- I just don't know if the main character is as interesting as the overall story idea. Maybe the main character could somehow be related to Kennedy?

It seems more cinematic than literary, to me.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
