If JFK were still around today -would he recogniize the Democratic party..?

Question

I don't think that he would, if fact I could see him disagreeing w/many of their positions (Driver's Licenses for illegal-aliens, etc). The Dems like to make a big deal out of his legacy; when in fact, some one of the biggest quagmires (Vietnam) started on his & Johnson's watch..

Answer 1

As long as drunken Teddy is still with us we are all safe....  

Answer 2

No he would be a republican today. Read Zell Miller's book, A party no more.

Answer 3

No and Ike wouldn't recognize the Republican Party either.  Back then, both, in their own different ways cared about the american people, all of them.  The country was not full of radical left and right.  

Answer 4

The Democrat party died with JFK , he would look at Ted and weep.

LBJ started the liberal party and destroyed the Democrats

Answer 5

Did you flunk history when in school?

Eisenhower was the president when we had troops in Vietnam.

Answer 6

Yes, but he'd recognize them as Communists.

Answer 7

If you took down all the banners and he just listened to the speeches and what they want to do, he might think they are the American Socialist (Communist) Party
