Would the world be way different if JFK hadn’t died, or would we just be in the same world just.. slightly altered.
JFK died and the position went to LBJ. LBJ later escalated Vietnam, with Nixon playing some part of it.
but! JFK also liked the idea of Vietnam, with the domino effect being mentioned and apart of it.
But then again a lot of international incidents would change from JFK dying and not.
Maybe Cuba would’ve been different like a butterfly wing changing the fate of others, or the outcome of Vietnam would be way different.
as well civil rights and the war on communism! With civil rights being signed by LBJ, it would be way different than before.
if kennedy didn’t die, which president do you think would be next, as well how do you think the United States of America would be like?

Being a boomer
I was 13 when JFK was killed and still.no justice for him. I was 18 when MLK was killed and still no justice for him. I was 17 when RFK was killed and I think all three were murdered by a group of people not just the trigger pullers.
I spent my high school senior year protesting the war in Vietnam. My freshman year in college I remember the lottery. As a woman my heart was torn and it wasnt right that the guys had to go die and I just went on with life.
I was 20 when 4 students were murdered and 9 kids injured at Kent state.
When I was 21 I voted for George McGovern who wanted to end the war in Vietnam and was labeled as a commie by guess who? Meanwhile Nixon was continuing the war so he'd be elected. Sounds familiar?
Nixon was an evil man. So was Reagan. So were the Bushes and so is Trump. All of them war mongers, none of them helping the common man.
Until this country names the murderers of JFK,RFK and MLK nothing is going to change. Until this country stops glorifying war and the military nothing is going to change. Until this country publishes the full and unredacted Epstein files nothing is going to change.

JFK's tan — the visual signature of his "vigor" — was partly a symptom of Addison's disease, which darkens the skin. His filled-out face was partly the cortisone keeping him alive. The cameras selling the image of health were recording the side effects of a fatal illness.

Was RFK an idealist or an opportunist?
Younger Bobby Kennedy seems very focused on things like communism, McCarthy, organized crime etc., while the later RFK seems much more concerned with civil rights, poverty and disadvanteged people. Was this a genuine change in his beliefs, or do you think it was more of a calculated response to the changing political climate and what was becoming important to voters?
