JFK did nothing of note as president except stupidly risk all out nuclear war and bone Marilyn Monroe in the white house. Johnson moved all the civil rights legislation through congress and into law.

He gave Americans our Constitutional money back however briefly - U.S. Dollars backed by silver, not Federal Reserve Notes - and I believe he was assassinated for it.

“It is no contradiction – the most important single thing we can do to stimulate investment in today’s economy is to raise consumption by major reduction of individual income tax rates.” – John F. Kennedy, Jan. 21, 1963, annual message to the Congress: “The Economic Report Of The President”

Not a bad sentiment in my opinion.

My sentiments, also.

JFK was unprepared for the job, presided over the Bay of Pigs disaster, and was sized up by Krushchev in their Vienna meeting as a weakling.

This led to the Cuberan Missile Crisis, which was really finally settled by our agreeing to withdraw our missiles from Turkey.

Most of us rubes didn't even know he was a philanderer.
