" Name me one, who you can honestly say was a great president, and an effective leader of our government. I can't do it. "

John F. Kennedy is regarded by many as a great leasder.

Sorry, “leasder” = leader.

I never really got that. Other than the man on the moon challenge, where did he ever show leadership? I think the fact that he only served for 2 1/2 years may be a factor in that perception... so mamy people fill in what he might have been with their own perception of goodness. After all, people used to think Colin Powell was a great leader too, until he had to talk about some specifics.

Kennedy may still be revered in many quarters, but no conservative would ever grade him as a great president.

Like other presidents who have lacked prior executive experience, Kennedy had a difficult time making tough choices, and was known for his hesitation and slow reaction time.
