If she says we partied, then I'm pretty sure we partied. I really don't remember. I remember we departed from our bodies.

I feel the same way about him that I feel about LBJ. Kind of a dick but a real good president. 8/10.

Hes remembered more favorably than he really deserves because of the assassination, but he did handle the Cuban missile crisis and the Berlin crisis really well.

you blame Eisenhower for a bungled military operation 3 months after he left office where Kennedy withdrew air support in an attempt to hide US involvement when US involvement was already super obvious?

okay

I would say he was 10/10 for the time he was allowed, he was exactly what the country needed to get through to the other side without a nuclear war.

However, if you place him in any other time period he would be lackluster. I do however think had he been allowed to finish his term he would have led to better social change than Johnson did, and we would probably have way weaker CIA/NSA branches which in hindsight is a massive thing.

So I gave him an 8, which I feel is more than fair.

and failed miserably in execution. The bay of pigs isnt remembered as a embarrassing failure just because it happened. Its remembered as an embarrassing failure because of its half assed execution. Either way, Kennedy was president, if he wanted to kill it on the table he should and could have done so.
