Two questions:
1) Who is the "he" in Dan 9:27?
I believe it refers to "the prince that shall come". The messiah was discussed in v25-26, and then "the prince that shall come" is mentioned. I believe that person is different from the messiah. I believe he is the antichrist. He will initially be seen as a "savior" of sorts, and will set up a covenant of peace, which he will then break half way through the seven year trib.
2) "CONFIRM the covenant". I believe your insistence on sticking with the KJV is harming your understanding. Nearly every other translation says that "a" covenant shall be confirmed, or words to that effect. It does not have to be an existing covenant.
Are you saying Christ broke the covenant 3 1/2 years after it was confirmed? I hope not..

I found this on a website can't comfirm right now. But it says it was ONE week from the triumphal entry to the crucifixion.... maybe this is the one week Daniel 9:27 is talking about, I don't know.
Today we celebrate the day called “Palm Sunday,” the day of Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem one week prior to his crucifixion and death. In case some of you are wondering why this is called “Palm Sunday”, it’s because according to the Gospel of John the crowds in Jerusalem came out to greet Jesus carrying palm branches, which they either waved or strewed in his path.

Madness and confusion. So Jesus returned at 70A.D. lets go with that. We are way past the 1000 year reign oh wait oops I forgot that was symbolic as well. Uhm so we are in the new heaven and new earth now? Anybody care to explain to me how in the world are we in the new heaven and new earth now? I hope yall don't go around teaching this madness to nobody.
I missed this part earlier. Christ didn't make a covenant with anybody, God made a covenant with Abraham and Christ confirmed that covenant when he came. Paul tells us Christ confirmed the Abrahamic covenant.
Galatians 3:17 KJV
And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.

We can disagree, I'm not going to change your mind and your not going to change mine, only God does that. 
Does the doctors office call you to confirm the appointment that you haven't made yet or do you make your appointment and later your doctor calls to cofirm that you are still coming to your appointment.

KJV1611 believes Dan 9:27 is speaking of Jesus Christ, not me. I believe it is speaking of the antichrist.
As far as 3 1/2 years in:
Dan 9:
27) And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
The middle of a "week" of seven years is 3 1/2 years.

1 Cor 1:10) Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.
1 Tim 2:
4) Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
They can make and confirm an appointment in the same call.
Yep, that happens too.
