Kennedy died before I was born. My parents are both Irish Catholics. Neither of them voted for him, but neither of them ever said a bad word about the man. Here is my point: I agree that middle aged liberals can't get over JFK. But for the rest of us, especially those who never met the man or his "aura," his assassination is a somewhat relevant bit of history, but we can not begin to get worked up over "potential."

Mostly I'm pissed off because I like to go home and watch The History Channel every night, and I have seen nothing but JFK for a week. The man died 40 years ago and he did not do much of anything. I'm sick of it, and I don't care. And he better be off my TV by Monday or the folks at THC are getting a nasty letter from me.

Now I understand where you are coming from. The only history that is relevant to you is what happened to you during your lifetime. You don't understand or care why the Kennedy assasination was a defining event for our country or why most Americans alive at the time remember exactly where they were and what they were doing when Kennedy was killed. Something akin to 9/11 for you.
