Will Chris Wallace ask a Dem if JFK could get the Dem nomination today (per Bob Dull interview?

I can't wait for Chris Wallace of Fox News to ask - really ask - a Democrat if JFK could get the nomination today, and/or if the Democrat Party really is big-tent (accepting of Dems who are pro-second amendment, pro-across-the board tax cuts, pro-life, pro-traditional marriage), etc...

If one could go back to JFK's time and ask him personally if he would support same-sex marriage, I wonder what he would say. And JFK supported across-the-board tax cuts, too, btw.

One thing that we could take from the interview though is that there is no reason for the GOP to say that they are "closed for repairs." If the GOP-e and their shills who appear on television as hosts and guests would just accept the Tea Party with open arms, and accept that the Tea Party now apparently leads the GOP, then things would be just fine.

Ironic, since Dole essentially got everything he wanted in both 2008 and 2012 when the "moderate" establishment candidate won the nomination over the conservative wing of the party and ran a "positive" campaign, while the Obama team proceeded to throw every piece of garbage they could get their hands on, back, in return.

...and that worked out so well we should triple down in 2016?!?

Let’s face it JFK and Reagan wouldn’t be allowed in the GOP today, because they were too conservative. Nixon, however, would be allowed.

great question!
