They were both pathetic failures in their own right. JFK was a womanizing drug addict who almost started WWIII with Russia over Cuba. He then later concocted the Bay of Pigs fiasco. JFK got us into Viet Nam and Lyndon Johnson continued his policy.

JFK! If Johnson had not had him assassinated , we would have been out of Viet Nam by 65. Johnson got rich off the War and he wasn't going to let good president deprive him of all that money. I think it's great that he didn't live long enough to enjoy much of it.

JFK
Handled the Cuban Missle Crisis
In charge during a crucial moment Called the cold war meaning he had alot of pressure.
JFK is the best.
He did not mess around. He got straight to the point. Also ask yourself, how would you feel if you were the president and someone threatened your country with nukes? I think he handled it quite well.

Ummmmm...That's not easy, both were pretty bad. JFK didn't have a chance to stick around long enough to get blamed for it, though.

JFK was better, simply because of how he inspired people
