  1. For that and many reasons, JFK would be pushed out of today's Democrat Party, even though he is probably acknowledged IN NAME ONLY as one of their political icons. Reportedly, Bernie Sanders said that JFK's anti- communism "made him sick" and the left's censorship and media control would consider this quote an anathema:

    "We are not afraid to entrust the American people with unpleasant facts, foreign ideas, alien philosophies, and competitive values. For a nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people."

    2. I should have written, "would consider his quote here" ....JFK, a true classical liberal, of course said that! Today's Democrats are leftist authoritarians, fascists, socialists and communists. --Ron W
