Turns out he had a ghost writer for the book. He would never be cheered for his antics with women in the White House now. Poor Jackie. But he was a great president. it goes to show, you can be great for the country without being perfect.

Player Ejag, Try a real research tool that is reliable, not Wikipedia. JFK wrote Profiles in Courage in the 1950's, while recovering from serious back surgery. Jackie actually did much of the work.

Qatwalk, The Viet Cong were South Vietnamese collaborators. The enemy in Vietnam was the NVA--North Vietnamese Army.

All we can do is sing his praises because he was taken from us. Would we be so positive had he survived?

If you've ever wondered who really killed JFK, you must read,"WHO REALLY KILLED JFK, THE CASE AGAINST LBJ." prepare to be amazed.

10bwc, I have read that towards the end he valued his wife more and. Both her advice and as a wife. I think that's one reason she was so traumatized by his assassination. Even though she was brought clean clothes to put on while still at the hospital she refused to change. She said she wanted the country to see his blood, the price he paid for being our president.

Qatwalk, no. Roosevelt became President at 42 when McKinley was assassinated in 1901 and Roosevelt, the elected VP at the time, assume the presidency. He was elected President in 1904 at age 45.

brownidol, It is a book about great historical political figures. Look this information up on a real historical site, not Wikapedia.
