Making the Bay of Pigs debacle look like a success story....
April 15-20, 1961

Kennedy halts virtually all trade with Cuba.
October 16, 1962

November 20, 1962

For me, it was his leadership in putting us on the moon. Kennedy really did nothing else during his abbreviated administration. His "Missiles in Cuba" fiasco guaranteed a communist regime in the western hemisphere ...and weakened the US in future dealings with the USSR.

Having sex with Marilyn Monroe and then passing her off to Bobby when he got bored. Also the fact he was stoned on prescription pain meds during the entire Cuban missile crisis.
