What do American right wingers think of JF Kennedy? Awful liberal idiot, or fantastic president? Or somethin

Question

else?

Cheers.

Answer 1

Are you kidding, he was a fantastic president!

Answer 2

He was not a liberal.  If he was around today they would call he a blue dog democrats.  Infact if he was around today the party would probable not have him as one of there leaders.

Answer 3

He had balls. Seriously, he stepped up Vietnam involvement. He was a war hero like McCain. He was tough and got us through the Cuban Missile Crisis.

He really wasn't that liberal.

Answer 4

He was an old-style Democrat and can't be labled with the modern term of "liberal".  He did, however, almost get the civilized world blown to radioactive bits.

Answer 5

JFK was a Democrat, but he was not a liberal. In the early '60s Democrats tended to be more conservative, especially compared to politicians of today. Not that I am a right winger, but I think he was a good president who set a new direction for America. He understood how to unite the country to bring about solutions. JFK is so noteworthy because we think of him as a monumental president, but he was only in office for about 2 and a half years. He made good use of his time. It really is too bad that it was cut short. History could have turned out very differently.

Answer 6

The Republicans and sound non-party individuals  believe he was a womanizing idiot who managed to get himself killed.

Answer 7

Lets see:

Started the Vietnam war.

Almost started a nuclear war with the Soviet Union.

Various s*x and corruption scandals.

The legend about the man is based on his being assassinated - not on what he actually did.
