JFK -

Largest tax cuts in American history
Pro-gun (NRA Life Member)
Anticommunist and not afraid to use troops for America’s national interest
Bona fide war hero - personally brave and deeply patriotic
Assassinated by a devout Marxist leftist named Lee Harvey Oswald

“Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, in order to assure the survival and the success of liberty.”

“And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country. My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man.”

They don’t seem to make Democrats like JFK anymore.

My mother, who whad been a Democrat, switched parties when LBJ got into office.

JFK, through a campaign speech before a bunch of Baptists to win votes, created the environment where a politician could privately believe one thing but vote for something against his beliefs.

In other words, he created the environment where pro-abortion Catholics could exist and fast-tracked the Separation of the Church and State ruse that is killing this country.

I think there are a few thousand Cubans who were on a beach in southern Cuba in April of 1961 who would disagree with that statement.....

JFK was a liberal Democrat and an icon to lefties everywhere. His assassination made him a martyr.

If JFK had lived, he would have been no different then his brothers, RFK and Fat TeddyK!
