JFK was a war hero who saved his men when his PT boat was hit, but he was pretty humble about it. He loved women and there is nothing wrong with that, unless you are his wife Jackie. He had his faults but in the end he took on the military industrial complex and was going to pull out of Vietnam which is what got him assassinated. But thousands of men would still be alive. He was the last president who was really your president, who gave a shit about the soldiers under his command.
He was going to pull out of Vietnam? That runs contrary to everything I've heard about JFK's position the war. Liberals seem to be the only people who perpetuate that myth.
JFK escalated the war.
