Not a fan, but given how terrible the 60s (all of their aftereffects) turned out, things would likely have been better had he lived. It’s like his skull was the Pandora’s Box - once it was blown open, all the furies of the 60s rushed out.
Electing Eisenhower’s vice president would have made an incredible difference, and America would have survived and would be totally different (in 1960 even Nixon was a very different man).
Imagine no Vietnam, no 1960s era dominated by Vietnam and the draft and resistance, no Kennedy assassinations, no unionizing of government employees, NO 1965 IMMIGRATION ACT that led to the end of America.
No Watergate, no Bay of Pigs, a President Reagan in 1968 without any Bush dynasty being created, no LBJ, no Goldwater debacle, no creation of Ted Kennedy the Senatorial Giant.
Imagine America without this immigration that killed it and no 1960s.
Gruesome way to put it,
But it was an ugly affair and
Ruby and Oswald were the only
Ones to spend a day in jail.
