No question Jack Kennedy was a good President and Im a conservative Republican.
I also think had Robert Kennedy been elected as President, he would have made an excellent President.
I have my doubts about Ted Kennedy, Im not sure he would have been as successful.
Thankfully Ted Kennedy served as Senator for I believe over 40 years.
Ted Kennedy was a remarkable politician and over the course of his career he made countless accomplishments.
I didnt agree with everything Ted did.
But to his credit he was able to work with Republicans to pass very important bills for the better good of our country.
Ted worked well with Ronald Reagan and also George W Bush.
Ted also forged good relations with Oran Hatch the Republican senator from Utah and many other people from across the aisle on the Republican side.
Ted clearly did not like Jimmy Carter and that became plain to see.
Upon Teddys passing, I was sorry to hear about it.
He sure left an exceptional Legacy.

President Kennedy's tax cuts effective on January 1, 1963, were affordable for the USA. They brought revenues and outlays roughly into balance, with small deficits. The top marginal tax rate was reduced from 91% to 75%. It was vitally necessary to get the economy moving out of the recession beginning in 1959, and set the USA up for the prosperity of the 1960's. Reagan's tax cuts were a disaster for the USA, favoring the rich, causing record deficits, and setting the USA up for decline and total collapse, following the disastrous Presidencies of George W. and Trump. JFK's Presidency was the high water mark of the American Experiment, when the USA's horizons seemed limitless. It has only been downhill from there, except between 1993-2001.

_We are not afraid to entrust the American people with unpleasant facts, foreign ideas, alien philosophies, and competitive values. For a nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people. _

JFK was not perfect. He was corrupt, immoral & vicious. He also wisely navigated his way out of the Cuban Missile crisis & had turned toward national self-determination in his foreign policy. His decision on Vietnam was prescient but in concert with his efforts at rapprochement with Khrushchev & Castro was likely the decision that got him killed. His Peace Speech at American University is a beautiful, hopeful speech about how similar we are all around the world. Its the brilliance of Ted Sorensen & JFK at its best. Moving oratory. He was immovable & in the way, and cruising into his re-election campaign with authority. Unacceptable. Bang, bang.

Kennedy was no different then any other president before or after him. Everything about him is fabricated young strong vibrant no he was not he was physically weak, sickly and only relatively handsome compared to all those very unhandsome presidents that preceded him. Also he was a womanizer with a sociopathic wife who whispered like she'd been abused. These type videos are propaganda truth be told LBJ was a better president than he was and he was a racist but his legislative contributions far exceeded that of JFK

Until our federal government tells the truth about the JFK assassination, there will be that much less trust and that much more fear of our federal government. We need to get the whole story out in the open, whatever it may be. Nothing is more damaging than living in a country where you believe that someone has gotten away with murdering the head of state, because if someone can do that, then none of us is safe.

Of course like many, I was profoundly affected by JFK. When he was killed the feeling that life would change forever was palpable to my core. I was only 10 years old but I could tell you on that very day we had seen the beginnings of the money and power grab we suffer from today. Ike told JFK to beware of the underpinnings that hold this whole thing up. To go against this 'thing' you will risk 'everything'.

If you ever want to gauge the true intelligence of another, especially in this country, ask whether or not they still think JFK was killed by a conspiracy. If they answer yes, just placate back as if they're suffering from a mental handicap or third-grade child that doesn't know any better. Sorry, Oliver. But still like your films. Nice to know the slow-dim-witted get to make tons of money in this world.

In 1987 I was privately shown a copy of the original unaltered Zapruder film, which very clearly shows the DRIVER of JFK's limousine turn around with a gun in his left hand and kill JFK by shooting him in his head! It is too bad that most people have not been able to see this version of the Zapruder film! The CIA was very good at covering their assassination of JFK up!

No matter what is said here, there is nothing said about JFK's Executive Order #11110 which gave us non debt money from the US Treasury as interest free, debt free US Notes. It was the final thing that got JFK killed 5 months after this EO was signed into law by JFK. The leverage was ramped down in this way which gave the FED and the large banks less control overall.

The Warren COMMISSION was joke of dark comedy compress of a CIA supervisor who was fired by Pres. Kennedy because of the Cuban Missile Crisis debacle, a would be vice president turned President because of The Presidency of his predecessor was none other than Tricky Sticky Dicky ( Richard Nixon. And a few others who weren't on the same page as Pres. Kennedy

In this video that talks about JFK's legacy for politics in the US and the world, when talking about LBJ we are told, Johnson, as President, did and achieved things that JFK could not have done or would not have been interested in attending when interacting with members of Congress. It reminds me of the title of a TV series, Spin city

For those of us Boomers who've lived through and experienced this era in our history first hand, it is both a blessing and a burden to carry in our memories. This documentary analysis of the past 60+ years, is a fair representation and offers some perspective as to what we were privileged to be a part of, for better or worse.

Why did it change the world as if JFK was the president of the whole world? Was he ready to pay reparations to those blacks who helped build America? Yes he was a better president for Americans because he signed the first NUCLEAR WEAPON TREATY IN OCTOBER 1963, So after him Lyndon B Johnson just followed JFK's legacy.

So sad. I feel like the world lost out in so many ways. I think politics and the United States (and the world) would have been a much better place with both JFK and Bobby Kennedy in it. Even though I was only a year old, I could feel that something bad had happened and today, my heart still breaks for these losses.

John Kennedy wanted to end the Vietnam war - thats why they they killed him! Johnson carried on the war for anoither 10 years or so - 50, 000 more young Americans killed, not to mention, the
100s of thousands of Vietnam men, women and children. The MIC heavily involved.

Imagine if he hadn't stolen the election. Nixon would have been president and JFK cold have come back and won legitimately. He probably would not have been killed. I loved JFK, but his was a stolen presidency. leading to catastrophic results that reverberate to this day.

There's never been a better president than John F. Kennedy, he's the president all others are measured against, the closest president we've had was Barack Obama, a young, eloquent, educated, and charismatic, he's a man that young people like, and admire.
