Dude, you must get your ideas about the Kennedy administration from some right wing quote mine because you are clearly clueless to Kennedy's actual record.
Did I say anything about his record? No. Dude, learn to read.
He just would not fit today's Democratic party. Consider these John F Kennedy quotes;
"By calling attention to a well-regulated militia for the security of the Nation, and the right of each citizen to keep and bear arms, our founding fathers recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy. Although it is extremely unlikely that the fear of governmental tyranny, which gave rise to the 2nd amendment, will ever be a major danger to our Nation, the amendment still remains an important declaration of our basic military-civilian relationship, in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the defense of his country. For that reason I believe the 2nd Amendment will always be important."
"A tax cut means higher family income and higher business profits and a balanced federal budget.... As the national income grows, the federal government will ultimately end up with more revenues. Prosperity is the real way to balance our budget. By lowering tax rates, by increasing jobs and income, we can expand tax revenues and finally bring our budget into balance."
“Every dollar released from taxation, that is spent or invested, will create a new job and a new salary.”
Indeed
The liberal media and the left wing loons try to make the (R's) out to be far right in recent years. In reality anyone (including the left wing freaks) could look at the (D) platform in the Bill Clinton years and see just how far to the left the (D's) have gone.
So not only could JFK not get elected today, but even Bubba Clinton couldn't get elected either. That is because the Pelosi/Reid faction has co-opted the party, and most of the moderates have retired or not been reelected.
Conversely, look at the (R) platform from the mid 1990's compared to today, and it is more or less the same.
So there is little doubt among everyone except the true koolaid drinkers that it is the (D's) who have made the most radical shift, not the (R's).
Heck, correct me if I am wrong, but in the (D) debate, the top two candidates were trying to promote varying forms of socialism as the future for America's economy. When Hillary said capitalism needed to be saved from itself, I practically spewed my drink. Such a comment just 8 years or so ago would have ended the political career of any candidate, R or D.
That is fine, but we can't afford a "liberal" government. Stick to the 18 enumerated powers and stay out of my pocket. You can be as "liberal" as you want with your own money, but not mine.
We cannot afford a "conservative" government either. Think what happened the last time conservatives owned all 3 branches. Wasn't pretty.

Every Kennedy in America is a Democrat, and yet these geniuses think JFK would've been a Republican today. SMH
These people have obviously never studied his actual policy positions.
