Leaving fidel kastro, a sworn enemy of the USA, at 90 miles south of the border. Very bad thing.
fidel has done all it could to harm the USA. Had not been because Gorbachev unwillingly pulverized comunism, fidel would be knocking at the White House and telling Bush to beat it, because it was charging charge

In a nutshell, brinkmanship.
Given his belief in the global struggle between east and west, his acceptance of the domino theory, his conviction that Vietnam was the testing ground for combatting 'wars of national liberation,' his often zealous committment to counterinsurgency, and his determination to never appear soft on communism, Jack might well have been compelled, as conditions worsened, to commit more American troops to Vietnam. It is clear that his harsh public rhetoric made disengagement more difficult. And his clumsy and unprincipled acquiescence in the coup tied the United States closely to the eight military governments that briefly succeeded Diem.

Kennedy did nothing. Dean Rusk did it all. Kennedy and His brother Bobby chased skirts and consorted with Hollywood starlets They did little, if anything, to earn their pay.

Like the irresponsible, drug-addled person he was.
