Yep! JFK was a tax-lowering, vehemently anti-Communist, war hero who was actually FRIENDS with Nixon. Don’t know his positions on gay marriage or abortion, or ruining businesses (besides US Steel) but I’d wager he was more “conservative” than most republicans of today.

Oh, I forgot to mention he was very reluctant to push for “civil rights” legislation because he thought it would lose the South. The racist LBJ did more damage in 5 years than Kennedy did in 2 and a half years.
