If 90 percent of Americans knew how badly Kennedy screwed up with Cuba alone, they might not be so kind to “Camelot”.
Still, he was a tax cutter and could never be nominated in today’s Democrat Party.

Yep. CNN touting the high approval ratings of a sex addict. Nice.

Third worst president of my lifetime. Apparently CNN polled a bunch of mouth-breathers.

Getting his head blown off sure turned around the reputation he had at the time for being an up and coming loser. It is proof that the democrat party can put lipstick on a pig, even a dead one, and turn it into gold.
Only problem is...the pig is still a pig; albeit a dead one.

He literally did nothing.
And that may be an unfair statement because he got shot, but during the time he was in office, he didn’t do anything for the country that immediately comes to mind. I suppose he held the line on the Cuban Missile Crisis pretty well, but... what else?
Why does getting shot suddenly make your presidency good? Did people rant and rave about McKinley?
G.W. Bush should have just taken a walk through South Side Chicago during his last week in office and he’d be called a hero. I really do despair at how politically/historically ignorant people are in this country. Ask the average man or woman what Bay of Pigs was and they’ll probably think you’re talking about a defunct bacon company.

Myth, Legend, and celebrity status always wins. Accomplishments without the above are not really considered by today’s voters. Kennedy 1000 days, brought us a button push from disaster in 1962. In 1963, he messed up things in Vietnam too, by budding in on the Regime change. Oh lets not forget the Bay of Pigs fiasco. Yeah, he’s #1 all right, but that’s only in the mind of the mind controlling media.

Kennedy was a mediocre president at best, but he was assassinated in office so he gets far higher rankings than he ever should.
Reality is Kennedy wouldn’t even be welcome in the Democratic party of today.

Let’s see...an immoral dope addict who passed women around like boxes of crackerjacks, a “war hero” who shut his plywood vessel down in enemy waters and had it cut in half by a Japanese warship, who was also involved romantically with a Nazi spy, uh, there’s more but my doorbell just rang.

It’s tough to sort them best to worst, considering that we have mostly done quite poorly in choosing leaders over the past 50 years, but my choices are:
Reagan (by a HUGE margin!)
George HW Bush
Ford
George W. Bush
LBJ
Nixon
JFK
Clinton,
Carter
Obama (by a HUGE margin!)
Note: Obama is one disaster from overtaking James Buchanan as the worst in American history, and he is trying his best to provoke that event.

Reagan in Second place at 78% is good. This isn't a special time for him rememberance, so hanging in there is great considering this is the 50% anniversary of Kennedy's deat. That has to bump him up. Most polls don't show him this popular.
Bill Clinton 74%? And yet the guy that is reportedly worse than him did nothing compared to what he was guilty of. Nixon has been pounded inceasantly by Leftists, the media, educators, and even people on the right who fail to grasp the fact that if Nixon would have been a Democrat, the issues associated with him wouldn't even have surfaced.
Nixon is at the bottom. Bush is at 42%. I don't think much of him. I can think of reasons for it to be lower. I also understand he was better that the ass-hat we have now. The Republic would be better off if neither of them had served as president. Not saying the Dem opponents would have been better, but some of the Republican ones would have been better in the primary/caucus rounds.
One wonders what you would have to do to be considered a national failure, by Democrats if you were a Democrat president.
Instances of what amounts to treason
Appointments of members of a terrorist organization to be your advisors
Sending arms to terrorist organizations
Sending large sums of money to terrorist organizations
Aiding terrorists operations on the ground in foreign nations
Making comments about domestic criminal trials while they are ongoing
Lying continuously
Hiding your personal documents so nobody can verify your status
Appointing incompetants that break the laws of our nation...
This is the kind of regime that twenty years from now, nobody will admit to having supported.

Time to tell the millennials that Ronald Reagan was also shot while President.

That may sound nice, but this is a senseless survey-I’m pretty sure that most of us were not old enough to vote or be concerned about politics during the Kennedy years...
