Blanking meaningless.
JFK has received nothing but worship in the media for 50 years.
Reagan achieved his popularity while being trashed daily by the same MSM.

Notice Nixon is called out as being forced from office(he resigned.) And the only elected President to be impeached? Who might that be?
To: okie01
Yes you can. I’ll pick up a copy.
When the POS surfaces from time to time to make comments, I want to wring his neck.

Some day in the distant future, I will take my grandkids on my knee and tell them the real story of the Bill Clinton their grade school teachers swoon over. Just a small part of that story will regard his impeachment.
I cannot wait.

RE: I wonder what his rating would be if he had not been killed.
A late 1963 poll before Kennedy was killed had him TRAILING Goldwater for the 1964 Presidential elections.

True, and in no way would Obama appoint anyone like him.
To: napscoordinator
Were you alive when JFK was pres?
I don't know anyone could rate him anywhere near the top. His bungling of the Bay of Pigs almost started WWIII with the Cuban Crisis. He did a pretty good job with that, but otherwise, nada.

Since most of the people polled (median US age 36) weren’t even alive when Kennedy was President why pay any attention. Also if Carter is not below Bush I question the intelligence of those polled.

This is BS, I was a working adult when he was president and while he was in office he literally did not do anything worth while and today there was a headline somewhere that they were having a moment of silence for him. Ca mon man, “give it up”! You can tell they (liberals) are really scared and desperate.

Why does getting shot suddenly make your presidency good? Did people rant and rave about McKinley? G.W. Bush should have just taken a walk through South Side Chicago during his last week in office and hed be called a hero. I really do despair at how politically/historically ignorant people are in this country. <<
James A. Garfield as well. He last 6 months as President before he was killed, and "accomplished" about the same amount that JFK did in 3 years. Of course you don't see the media building some fairy tale story about how wonderful life was under Garfield and making his wife and kids out to be royalty.
Put me down in the 10% of Americans who do NOT "approve" of Kennedy's job performance from 1961-19643.

He was a mediocre president at best with a good understanding of tax matters but a poor understanding of foreign affairs. His greatest achievement as president was probably Marilyn Monroe

Simply ask anyone who thinks he was such a wonderful President to name 3 initiatives he accomplished.
Sleeping with MM doesn't count, though I'm sure it was something to brag about.

So people think the #1 attribute for a great president is to get assassinated?
