Question

Omitting Lyndon B. Johnson who is noted for losing control Democratic party
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyndon_B._Johnson
I am thinking YES, he would of created stronger bond for Democrats. He was the true "Democrat", and I and I may not be alone when I say, I am still looking for that J.F.K. image in the canadates.

Answer 1

JFK would be a Republican if he was alive today

Answer 2

There were 3 Democratic Presidents since JFK. Johnson, Carter and Clinton.

To answer your question, there would have been more. Johnson would have run and succeeded; but would have died in office (possibly as early as 1972). Bobby Kennedy would have run and won.

Carter might have followed, depending on who Bobby tapped as VP.

The Reagan/Bush era would still gone on, and Clinton would still have came in to claim 2 terms.

Answer 3

I understand! Hillary and a lot of the democratic contenders are more conservative than Nixon. I'd like to think the world would have been a better place. Can you imagine if Bush had been the president during the Cuban Missile Crisis? Holy God, we'd all be dead now.

Answer 4

If JFK hadn't been killed, and lived through a second term, the world itself would be a much different place. JFK didn't kid around.


And who knows?? We might have had even more Democratic Presidents.

Answer 5

Even Jackie,his wife said it was a time of fantasy.If he had served out his term we have no idea what it would have been like.I think he was the Perfect politician but as a man he was not.He will alway be a Dream of what could have been.

Answer 6

the world would be comunist he was soft on them
