Talk about parties changing.

JFK is so far right, not only would he NOT fit in todays Democratic Party, he would be considered Right Wing in the Republican Party!

"Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country".

That is so far from where the Dems have been for decades, he would not be nominated Dog Catcher by them.  He would assuridly be racist by the standards they have today.

Today we need a nation of minute men; citizens who are not only prepared to take up arms, but citizens who regard the preservation of freedom as a basic purpose of their daily life and who are willing to consciously work and sacrifice for that freedom. The cause of liberty, the cause of America, cannot succeed with any lesser effort.

A truly great man and a real loss to the country (think Lyndon B. Johnson).
