But Reagan was something more: a turning-point president who believed that the policy directions of the past were wrong, and that with different policies our future could be far better. We have had other such presidents, Lincoln, Franklin D. Roosevelt and John F. Kennedy. Their elections were turning points in America's policies, as was Reagan's.

What turning point did JFK give us, other than cutting tax rates? He badmouthed Ike's handling of the Cold War then found out when he became pres, Ike had been doing a lot in secret. He bungled the Cuba invasion.

JFK turned his point towards anything with two X chromosomes.

I had the same reaction. Then I remembered Pete DuPont is an East Coast elitist RINO who probably thought all Ike did was play golf.
