Answer 2

Because of PNoy, the Philippines' financial standing in the eyes of the international community has improved a lot. The confidence of investors has returned. It will take more than 6 years before this investor confidence will trickle down to the masses. PNoy is not focused on the nitty-gritty of the little things that will make street vendor happy. Therefore, it is perfectly understandable that a common citizen will give him a failing grade in the first year. But checking on the Banko Sentral standing, our import and export numbers, the huge infrastructure projects lining up, etc. These are all long term, that the next President will benefit from. Congratulations, Mr. President, for putting an end to the reign of corruption emanating from Malacanang.

Answer 3

Nothing. His Cuban missile crisis was a stand down on his behalf. He exchange U.S. missiles in Turkey for the ones in Cuba. Not only that, but their was submarines in the Atlantic coast that were much closer to U.S. shores. The only thing he had going, was he knew how to deliver a speech. Snake oil salesmen can do the same, but it takes a real President to have convictions and deal with matters in a strong way even if the weak minded don't support him.

Answer 4

Dont listen to Carter.....the Cold War did not end until the 1980's under Ronald Reagan.

What JFK did do is keep the soviets from putting missiles into Cuba. He kept his cool when Kruschev, (Soviet leader at the time), threatened the US, saying that they would "crush us".

He also began police action in Vietnam, which later escalated into the Vietnam War. He wanted to stop the spread of Communism.

His major accomplishment was stopping the Cold War, or the next World War, from happening. Some people don't realize how close we were to a nucleur war with the Soviet Union.

Its sad he had to pass so early in his extraordinary life.
