In addition to its large size, this anti-Kennedy sign is best remembered for its extreme poor taste in retrospect since it plays on Sen. Goldwater's first name to reference a burial of \"King John.\" A conspicuous Confederate battle flag was also prominently displayed at Dallas Love Field, though whether that was a sign of protest or southern school spirit remains in question. Other less prominent anti-Kennedy signs at the airport read: \"Yankee Go Home and Take Your Equals With You,\" an explicit reference to President Kennedy's support of the Civil Rights Movement, and \"Help JFK Stamp Out Democracy.\" -- Stephen Fagin, Curator"]},"id":{"label":"Id","value":"64085"},"dimensions":{"label":"Dimensions","value":"15/16 × 1 7/16 in.
