No- Kennedy did not rescue Bush. I do not think they met until long after the War ended.
Did somebody help Lee Harvey Oswald kill the President?
Not that anyone knows and has been able to prove. Some people pick out someone they don't like, such as Vice President Johnson, or Castro, or gays, or the Mafia, and simply claim they were involved.
But it was a one-man sized job. Oswald bought the rifle by mail order, as legal as church on Sunday then, and there is no reason to believe that the rifle was paid for by someone else, long before JFK's trip to Dallas was planned. It was a cheap but effective and accurate weapon, with a higher muzzle velocity than American military rifles.
For a while people thought there was a second assassin on the grassy knoll. However, the audio "proof" of this, turned out to have been recorded after the assassination. The supposed "Badgeman" assassin, would have had a head the size of an apple, if there had really been anyone there. Turned out to be light and shadow, sunlight glinting off a pop bottle clearly photographed there instants later. In any case, there was a concrete wall between the position, and Kennedy's head, at the crucial instant. The bone beveling where Oswald's bullet struck his skull, proved the shot to have been from behind. The reaction to this, brain matter spraying forward and to the right, caused an initially confusing movement back and to the left. However, had there been a shot from the knoll, it would have exited the left side of the skull, which didn't happen.
Did Kennedy's assassination a big thing in the world?
Not anymore. It's been 47 years since Lee Harvey Oswald (acting alone) shot and killed President John F. Kennedy and Officer J.D. Tippit. It's been 42 years since Sirhan Bishop Sirhan (acting alone) shot and killed Senator Robert F. Kennedy as well as shooting and wounding a few other people. The world has moved on from 1963 and 1968. To people around the world, the shooting of the Kennedys are just two more examples of what happens when almost anyone in the USA can get a hold of a gun. You let enough people get their hands on enough guns and people get shot, including the President of the United States of America, Senators, and the Reverend Martin Luther King Jr. (by James Earl Ray, acting alone).

What is the value of an 1862 Confederate half dollar?
My first guess is that it's a copy, because most genuine Confederate halves are quite rare and are already in collections.
You'd have to take it to a dealer or appraiser for a first hand inspection in order to be certain.
