Quote:
Blessed and Blighted

Despite being a political dynasty in America, it was plagued by misfortunes in what came to be known as the Kennedy Curse. Edward Kennedy lived to be 77 but was plagued with scandals and tragedy. His elder sister Rosemary Kennedy had developmental problems and spent her last years in institutions due to health complications. Joseph Kennedy Jr perished in a plane Crash whilst on bombing mission in the Second World War. Kathleen Kennedy perished in a France plane crash too at a tender age of 28. Edward Kennedy nearly perished in plane crash and although he survived, he spent the rest of his life with a persistent back pain.

29 years ago, David Kennedy, one of Robert Kennedy’s 11 children, died of cocaine overdose and 13 years later, his other son hit a tree while skiing in Colorado; he died in the accident. Only 14 years ago, yet another tragedy struck; John Kennedy Jr, the son of JFK, died with his wife and sister-in-law when their ill fated plane crashed into the Atlantic Ocean.

What did he achieve that can be turned as great? I have been following JFK: 7 Days that made the President, but i didn't get much other than His pronouncement in favour of Desegregation...

The guy died three years into his presidency.

JFK had a good name and good looks to match. He had the money and good pedigree that made him a magnet.

His undoing was his insatiable apetite for women. He turned the White House into a "massage palour" so to speak.
His other undoing was his complacent attitude. Against the better advise of the secret service, he insisted on driving around in enemy territory in an open car.

Two bullets stopped him short of another political victory.

Only Bill Clinton came close to de-throning JFK in terms of insatiable appetite for good women.

Pedes
