Answer 2

A moderate Democrat that Lowered Taxes and eventually decided to support Rights for Black Americans. A Democrat that would Go to war and defend the Constitution. He was the Last of his kind with the exeption of Lieberman

Answer 3

I think that he was killed 11/22/1963. I won't say assassinated, because he was killed by the US government.
I know that he fought in a war for US. I know that for the remainder of his life, he was addicted to powerful painkillers. I know that he was unfaithful to his wife, Jackie. I know that he forced "the Bay of Pigs" incident in Cuba that has remained a thorn in our relationship with them. (He wasn't certain that we could take a hit from the USSR at that time---it's called saber rattling). I can't give you positive insights on the "man". He was killed for a reason---he didn't know his butt from a hole in the ground. He used the office of President of The United States of America to further the name of Kennedy. He talked too much and knew too much about what the CIA was doing at the time. The CIA may have saved our tail(s) from WW III by dusting him.
Bless his heart.

Answer 4

An example of the kinds of courage that is required, rather than perfection, to learn to become a leader.

Answer 10

Kennedy was the 3rd greatest president of the 20th century, after Warren Harding and Calvin Coolidge (the presidents responsible for the boom in the 20s) and the greatest since the incompetent "New Orleans flood relief czar" Herbert Hoover (he was the Giuliani of the 20s, as he lied about his support for the free market and he was portrayed as a hero for an incompetent response to a disaster, namely when the New Orleans flood occurred, as a result of mismanagement of the levees since Abe Lincoln eminent domained them from their private owners; Hurricane Katrina was simply a recurrence of this particular flood; see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Mississippi_Flood_of_1927 for more information on this flood). Hoover portrayed flood relief from private individuals as being from the government and claimed that his counterproductive efforts were a success. Then, he would cause the Great Depression by implementing the first aspects of the New Deal and FDR would prolong the Depression (if you want to see just how absurd the New Deal was, look at the agricultural aspects of it, as the government destroyed crops and livestock at first and later just paid farmers not to grow crops and they did this while people were starving).

Kennedy is one of the few presidents considered great by mainstream thinkers who actually turns out to be pretty good on further inspection. George Washington repeatedly violated the Constitution and even called in the Army to attack people in western PA who were protesting a whiskey tax that amounted to taxation without representation (though the tax still eventually failed, as they couldn't find tax collectors in any other western regions and therefore couldn't claim tax evasion). Jefferson failed miserably as president by unconstitutionally making the Louisiana Purchase and by failing to impeach activist Supreme Court justices who were abusing their power (including chief justice John Marshall, his cousin; worst of all, Jefferson had a failed impeachment trial which made it virtually impossible to impeach as the precedent that merely violating the Constitution was grounds for impeachment was overturned by Congress as the rogue Supreme Court justice convinced Congress of a spurious argument to save himself that violating the Constitution isn't a "high crime or misdemeanor" in and of itself). Lincoln chose to fight a war to end slavery instead of peaceful means which were available (one such option was to repeal the Fugitive Slave Act, which would have made the Underground Railroad an even worse problem and Lincoln had the votes to do it after the Confederate states seceded, but he actually cared more about his extremely high tariff which was supposed to line the pockets of his industrialist buddies at the expense of southerners).

Kennedy's dad Joseph Kennedy was one of the Isolationists/Non-Interventionists who was opposed to the unsound foreign policy which the United States has adopted over the last 60 years, including the idea that war should never be declared. Joe Kennedy was a radical Republican of that era (in that era, the right-wing was anti-war, pro-civil liberties, and actually serious about the fiscal conservatism stuff) and an outspoken critic of the Korean War and critical of the Vietnam War. He opposed the idea of a Cold War because he believed (correctly, as we found out in 1989) that Communism is an unsustainable and impossible economic system and therefore it posed no threat to anybody. Senate Majority Leader Robert Taft gave a speech before he died against the Vietnam War that caused Eisenhower not to start that war earlier (though Eisenhower still made dumb mistakes, such as overthrowing the democratically-elected Iranian government, which led to the overthrow of our puppet, the Shah, in 1979 and his replacement by a fanatic, though Iran has now returned to democracy, as younger Iranians do not remember what Eisenhower did and therefore they like America and they oppose the conservative elements in their country, which is why Ahmadinijad has about half the popularity in Iran that Bush has here).

Kennedy was a Democrat, even though his dad had been a Republican, in large part because the Republicans had very few opponents of war left (by comparison, Democratic nominee in 1952 and 1956 Adlai Stephenson was a staunch opponent of warmongering). JFK's dad did steal the 1960 election from Richard Nixon with the help of the mafia, which is something we should be glad about, as that nearly saved us from one of our most incompetent presidents (Nixon escalated the Vietnam War in the name of "peace," implemented the absurd policy of price controls causing shortages, and ended the gold standard causing hyperinflation when his price controls were later repealed and worsening shortages in the meantime).

As president, Kennedy's greatest achievement was when he ignored the advice of crazy military leaders who wanted a nuclear war and negotiated with the Soviets to get the missiles out of Cuba. If Nixon had been president, we wouldn't be alive right now because he would have dropped the bomb on Russia, causing the bomb to be dropped on America and wiping out all life in both countries. This led to the split between the liberals and the group known as the Neo-Conservatives. The liberals generally agreed with Kennedy. The Neo-Conservatives generally agreed with Vice President Johnson and the extremists in the military. Nowadays, the Neo-Conservatives (the dominant group in the Republican Party these days, which includes Bush, McCain, Giuliani, Huckabee, Fred Thompson etc.; however Ron Paul is pro-peace, as are a few other Republicans, but not as consistently) spread conspiracy theories about something called "islamo-fascism" and promote hate against numerous groups of people while also advocating fascism. Kennedy also tried to break the Federal Reserve by having the treasury start printing money instead, as it is supposed to do under the Constitution.

Obviously, these 2 events were major reasons for the Kennedy assassination, as was the fact that he didn't warmonger in Vietnam. These were the motives for the CIA and other government agencies to get involved (E. Howard Hunt, the CIA agent and Watergate burgular admitted alot about the Kennedy assassination on his death bed). Lyndon Johnson was almost certainly involved in the assassination to some extent and George Bush Sr. may have been involved (for example, http://www.famoustexans.com/georgebush.htm says that the records of Bush's company which owned a base used during the Bay of Pigs Invasion were destroyed in 1981 while he was vice president and basically running the country instead of absent-minded Ronald Reagan, who already had Alzheimer's; Bush Sr was director of the CIA under Ford and denied any previous involvement with the agency, but if somebody ever works for the CIA, they probably still work for it and the CIA directors usually worked for the CIA before that; he did damage control when the CIA was exposed as engaging in illegal activities by the Church Committee of the Senate). Attorney General Bobby Kennedy double-crossed the Mafia by prosecuting them, which was why they were involved in the assassination plot (and of course, the Mafia didn't officially exist at that time).
