But that's just it, if JFK where on the Democrat ballot today he would not be electable. The Democrat party has shifted so far left these days Kennedy would be too conservative to be electable today.
Ask yourself this, would you vote JFK today? I know I would.
Are you insane?
Nope, JFK was almost as conservative as Reagan. He would in no way be elected today by the Democrat party, he would fit in more as a Republican in this day and age. Why do you ask?
Because if you think the Democratic party (yes, Democratic, 'Democrat' is not an adjective) has moved left, you must be. If anything, Republicans from Kennedy's time would be Democrats. Could Ike be a Republican in the current freak-show state of affairs in the Republican party? Probably not.
What leads you to believe JFK would be Republican? Because he cut taxes from 91% to 70%? Do you think he would advocate tax cuts now with the kind of deficits we have? Nah.
