“The JFK Presidency, is what killed America.”

I agree, and I have always believed that if Nixon had won that election history would have been much different, and much better. Nixon would not have allowed us to become entangled in Vietnam, and Lyndon Johnson would never have been president.

Wilson was bad, no question. BUT, every Democrat president of the century was awful AND damaged the country one way or the other. It was on the job training for Kennedy. His health issues were kept secret, as were his social habits. He chose Johnson for political reasons and not because he believed he was best for the American people.

True, if Eisenhower's veep had won in 1960 then the 60s would have been mostly a continuation of the 50s, instead of JFK's radical decade of destruction.
