JFK was spot on in '62 and it should be our message today..

6. Agreed...

In my own life, I've always identified more with RFK than John. Perhaps it's the fact that I've experienced loss on a much smaller but similar way that Bobby did. I've always seen myself through the lens of Bobby: a fighter for the underdog, a representative of the voiceless, and yet a broken man who is trying to make the world better. It's only been in my adult life that I've discovered the many things that JFK fought for during his presidency. It may sound funny, but I had no idea that JFK had fought for the development of Medicare prior to the "great society" and LBJ, at least until I was an adult. History books have a way of limiting our knowledge.

JFK would certainly have had an incredibly positive impact on this country during his second term, which is one of the reasons why he was gunned down by the powers that be.
