Random thought vanity on John F. Kennedy, Jr
14 May 2016 | ResisTyr

Posted on 05/14/2016 11:09:58 AM PDT by ResisTyr

Just a random thought for the day...I believe there's a good possibility that had JFK, Jr. not died, he may very well have become POTUS by now...or possibly be Trump's opponent this time around.

Was Tempelsman a widower when he was seeing Mrs. Onassis?

Jackie was a tramp and Planned Parenthood fan. She learned from Garbo how to maintain a mystique of unutterable class for life—never let the public hear your voice. Photos are okay, but the voice, never.

Plane crash = Clinton Mafia hit. It soon would be PIAPS’ turn in the White House, and no Kennedy brat was going usurp her rightful place.

He sounded much smarter than Horseface. No uhhhs and y’knows. For some reason, his voice was much softer and more pleasant, and his accent was classier.

But he was pro-abortion, like all Kennedys.

John Kennedy, Jr. would not now nor ever have been President.

I don’t think he was that ever interested in running for public office. I believe that given his life as it was, privacy might have been more important, such as he could get it. He was always the Dream of Democrats in New York to run but if you look at him and his actions he just never seemed to have that desire.

Yes I believe it took him about three times to pass the bar but I don’t see that as any big deal. His plane crash was caused because he was not flying on instruments. Because of his limited flying he became confused and made a crucial mistake in trying to fly on visual at sunset.

From what I read about him he seemed like a nice guy and came across as pretty conservative, more like his father. I just never saw him running for office.

No.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maurice_Tempelsman

Marriage and children

Tempelsman has three grown children by his wife Lilly Bucholz, a woman who had also fled Antwerp with her family. They were married in 1949.[2] His daughter, Rena, is the widow of Robert Speisman, an executive vice president of Lazare Kaplan International Inc. who died on board American Airlines Flight 77, when the aircraft crashed into The Pentagon during the September 11 attacks.[28]

Tempelsman and Bucholz formally separated in 1984. Bucholz later granted Tempelsman a get but the two have never legally divorced due to Bucholz’s devout Orthodox Jewish beliefs.[3]

I'm not so sure about where JFK Jr. would have ended up had he lived.

In his magazine "George", he even wrote an editorial about the bad behaviors of his family.

At the time he created it, "George" was supposedly non-partisan.

During his life, he seemed to shun the spotlight, even though the tabloids followed him around 24/7.

Well, since we’ve already had a couple of sons of presidents become presidents themselves, and this irrelevant trivial historical first binge seems to be all the ‘rats have going for them at this point, my guess is JFK Jr would have to wait his turn behind the first woman, first gay (openly that is), first Hispanic, first left-handed, blue-eyed former hockey player, and on and on.....

Why didn’t J. F. K. Jr. take a shower before He took-off in his airplane? Because, He knew he would wash-up on the Beach.

So true. Papa Joe bought the election for him. Changed history .... assassinations of JFK and Bobby, LBJ who got us deep into Vietnam, and little boozy brother Teddy was voted into power with the sympathy vote and was poison for our country. And more. All because of Papa Joe.

If I remember correctly, JFK Jr had a cast on his foot at the time of the crash, (maybe from a bicycle accident?). That could have caused trouble in using the planes foot activated controls (rudder).
