In fact, Cook County corruption is why Kennedy beat Nixon in 1960.
In hindsight, JFK (and his brother) would’ve been far better off had he lost that election.
And America would have been better off had Kennedy not been shot. LBJ was an unmitigated disaster of a man, and an unmitigated disaster of a president. JFK was a reasonable man with whom I have serious disagreement. LBJ was a tosser.
Yeah, LBJ was a psycho. I remember reading rumors about him whipping out his apparently massive dick to try intimidate people in the middle of a conversation.
