25. On welfare programs, JFK in his 1962 SOTU argued for "stressing services instead of support, rehabilitation instead of relief, and training for useful work instead of prolonged dependency." A 1990s neoliberal theme, but surely more Reagan & Newt than Pelosi.

36. That is not how this works. Each vote's scoring is subjective. Whether to weight different votes by importance is subjective. Not everything that has a number is a hard fact.https://twitter.com/jessphoenix2018/status/1105287272369336320 …

Is the argument that Kennedy, his supporters, and his opponents were being disingenuous when they said he was liberal, but he was being entirely sincere when he said conservative things?

The same might be asked - with more actual reason- of why they hated Obama. Obama was certainly more conservative than JFK for his era and he aligned with Reagan and the Bushes ideologically in many ways. So what was it that could've inspired such conservative hatred?

If you tried to delete your original tweet (the one claiming JFK was a conservative liberal in his day) you need to check your work, Dan. You didn't. Thus, we can all see how you changed your thesis after being abused by the professor's history lesson.

Almost all postions that would have been opposed by Robert Taft. JFK was not a conservative, but apparently Reagan was a closet liberal.
