| | John kennedy was a philanderer, However i believe he cared deeply about america. he saw war and wanted to end the vietnam conflict. Therefore, the military industrial complex made sure he was not around to finish the job, he also cared deeply about blacks and their plight against inhumane treatment at the hands of southern governors. |
