I think he’d have found out by now his party had something to do with his murder and he’s been screaming from the grave for over 50 years for us to watch out and DO something about these thugs.

That’s easy; it’s not his party anymore.

They would use his head like a salsa bowl.

The democrats are still murdering people who are in the party’s way. JFK would recognize that.

The Democrats of today wouldn't let a man with JFK's political and social beliefs join the party.

Your reply made me think of Brain Salad Surgery for some reason. Recognize the name?

He wasn’t really an independent or committed thinker. The drug-addled lecher would have ‘evolved’ his views and been quite happy with today’s Dems.

JFK could not run as a Democrat today.

Funny. I always thought Dr. John got the lyric from the title of ELP's album. Turns out it is the other way 'round.

+1 on that. He would be right at home with the Rat party today.

No doubt that Camelot would be as big a scam as the Clinton Crime Foundation was.

I’ve been telling my Democrat friends for 2 decades now- Kennedy would not recognize today’s Democrat party.

He would have bitch-slapped that idiot little brother of his, Teddy, too.

Well, Larry. The real question is: What does today’s democrat party think of JFK?

I think they believe that JFK is just a throwback. A lead into power that they crave. I bet they sort of think of him like pro football players of today think of the past veterans: “I’m glad they suffered so I could get my millions today!”

Hard to believe that JFK would be 100 years old this year. Born in 1917.

At the very best, JFK would show great puzzlement at what the Democrat Party has become, in no small part because of actions of his younger brother Teddy.

Long ago, I saw a picture of John and Bobby at a table, speaking to Ted, who was sort of cowered down into a corner, obviously the recipient of a fairly stern lecture. The picture was captioned with Teddy saying, “Sure, it was EASY for you guys. You didn’t get caught.”

Teddy must have felt persecuted much of his life.

He would love his party because he would be a Republican.

Quayle should have said to Bentson in the 88 debate: Actually you DIDNT know Kennedy. He was a tax-cutter. You are a tax-raiser.

I do believe that some kind of ‘making bricks’ action would be his first.
Next, to find that his party has gone so far towards the Communism he hated, he might lose his lunch.
Lastly, I’ll not guess.

I saw ELP do that album live in Albuquerque. What a show!

.
John Kennedy knew what his party was made of; that’s why he was fighting them, and why he is dead.
