        Hey Jack- Congratulations on your win. Someday you'll be known as one of our greatest presidents, and I'll be known as the second most corrupt out of the first 45.

        Kennedy was a veteran. You can see even in this photo that he has pain in his back, which he never let stop him & which he gritted his teeth and bore bravely, without public complaint.

        One Deep Throat == game changer. Nixon would have been remembered totally differently if it was not for Woodward/Bernstein follow up. Where else could have Deep Throat gone? Checks&Balances=hollow words? QED: President Trump. Mirror. pic.twitter.com/8UXbOLG65K

        Interesting they both suffered a similar form of social awkwardness (in reverse). Nixon had trouble being perceived as warm in public, when he was in fact a loving and doting husband & father. JFK was outwardly warm and approachable in public, but cold and indifferent to family.

        Nixon had respect for Kennedy's intellect and debating skills. They were sworn into the House of Representatives in the same 1947 class. My parents were just plain lucky to be visiting the House the day JFK made his maiden speech.

        Maybe after LBJ [Texas] and Richard Daley [Illinois] defeated Richard Nixon?

        I watched the televised debate between Kennedy and Nixon. Kennedy was a rock star. Nixon was sweating profusely, stumbled for words. Oh, To have a rock star back!

        There we go again. Can't resist stereotyping an entire (majority) group of people in this country. Why infect a historical tweet with such venom? And name one Democrat knowledgeable about the '60 election who won't "talk about" the alleged shenanigans.

        I look at this picture and think of the role they both played in the deaths of the 58,000 whose names are on the wall, but yeah, at least they were cordial.

        TRUE bipartisanship at the deepest levels. politically they couldn't be further apart, on a humanitarian level couldn't be closer. What's now happening in our country is tragic @realDonaldTrump @CNNPolitics
