Kennedy was a good man, and a good president. But his affairs with multiple women, including the famous Marilyn Monroe, only give evidence to the theory that he was a man almost entirely ruled by his overly functioning sex drive. I personally believe that Kennedy was a weak man for succumbing to his libido to the extent that it could possibly have become a national security. I think it was despicable of him to have slept with Monroe, as damaged as the woman was. But despite my opinions on his affairs and his marital status, I can acknowledge that John F. Kennedy did a splendid job at being president of the United

The next great criticism of Kennedy is him not automatically sending troops to the University of Alabama after the horrible incident that happen on the campus of the University of Mississippi. In Alabama two African American students tried to attend the University of Alabama Governor George Wallace send state troops to block the administration office (history.com). In an interview Kennedy was asked if he would send federal troops in to make the governor of Alabama George Wallace move and let the African American students attend the university. He's response was he was very reluctant to see it reach that point of troops being sent in and he hoped the Wallace would follow the court’s ruling, because he was obligated to carry out the law (jfklibery.org).

This is also how he made most of his fortune. John Kennedy had several siblings also, three brothers, and 5 sisters. His two brothers Robert, and Edward are probably the most famous. When it came time for JFK to get into politics, Papa Joe wanted his son to get into the White House. It is reported that he contacted his friends in organized crime to help him to get his son elected. One of these crime bosses, Sam Giancanna of Chicago claimed that he was responsible for getting Kennedy the presidency by stuffing the ballot box, and sinking the 10,000 votes for Nixon into the bottom of Lake Michigan. Needless to say organized crime felt as though the Kennedy's owed a debt. But John Kennedy, unaware of this debt that he owed decided that along with his brother Robert, the attorney general, he would fight organized crime, and try to bring an end to it. The mob was not happy with this action. Someone that they had helped had turned against them. Papa Joe appealed to his son, to try to get him to lay off, but to no avail. The moffia was disappointed with the Kennedy's, and needed to do something about their problem.

Kennedy came from a line of businessmen and politicians, so it only fit that he would follow. His father, Joseph Sr. Kennedy, had very high expectations for his family of 7 children. John was not always the best student in school, but he was clever and enjoyed history and English. He entered into Harvard University in 1936 and played football. Kennedy’s father was appointed United States Ambassador to England in 1937, and because of this, John became very interested in politics and world affairs.1 After graduating from Harvard, JFK entered the military and became a Lieutenant. He even received a Navy and Marine Corps Medal for his leadership and courage. He then decided to become a politician, and he served 3 terms in the House of Representatives then was elected to the U.S. senate in 1952.

John F. Kennedy was born on the 29th of May, in the year 1917. He was also known as “Jack”. As a young child, he often got sick. He did not pressure himself to do school related work, unless it appealed to him. Even in college, he only did work unless it appealed to him. Finally, in his last year in college, he got himself together and started taking school seriously. After graduating from college, he went into the army. His brother, Joseph Kennedy went into the navy. While he was in the army, unfortunately,

To properly understand the events a chronological descripcion of the litigation is to be provided.

John Fitzgerald Kennedy was born May 29, 1917, in Brookline, Massachusetts, into one of the wealthiest families in the United States. Universally called "JFK," he became a millionaire at the age of 21 when his father gave him one million dollars, but politics and sports were of much more importance to him. He loved touch football, tennis, golf, sailing, and swimming. JFK attended Princeton University and Harvard, graduating from there cum laude. He attended Stanford University business school before serving in the U.S. Navy. He was a naval hero during World War 11 when his PT boat was cut in half and he helped to save the lives of his crew.

On July 18, 1969, Senator Edward Kennedy found himself fighting to escape from a car that had been driven off a bridge and into a pond. Along with him was Miss Mary Jo Kopechne, a campaign secretary for the deceased Senator Robert Kennedy. Even though the senator escaped, Miss Kopechne did not have the same, fortunate fate. At this moment, Kennedy fought to escape the clutches of drowning, however, seven days later, he faced another precarious situation in which he was fighting to escape the clutches of the Massachusetts people. There were accusations about his behavior with Miss Kopechne that night and about alcoholism. Edward Kennedy’s chances to retain his position in office seemed to be fading.

The last stop for Kennedy in Texas, and for his whole life, was Dallas. Dallas seemed to be the most aggressive out of any other region in the state towards the president and his administration. When arriving in the city that Kennedy thought of most importantly on November 22, he and his wife got into a limousine that banded together with two cars containing police and the Secret Service. Driving towards the Trade Mart, the people of Dallas seemed more friendly towards Kennedy than expected with positive signs being held up in the air and cheering of the crowds. After about half an hour into the car ride one of the most shocking moments in American history occurred when a fire of a gun was heard three times by the people near the limousine that contained the president. Kennedy was shot with his cranium seriously damaged by the impact (Parmet, pg. 345-346).
