ORIGINAL: DaddySatyr Tell me again why a one-term senator is a good choice? Depending on the generation you ask, there has not been a decent choice for president in the elections since, Eisenhower, JFK, or Reagan. JFK I wonder about, since he was assassinated before he could really do anything, other than the missile crisis, and from everything I have read on that, he was constantly questioning himself if it was the right course of action. We are just lucky that Khrushchev blinked, although we did have to pull some obsolete medium range missiles out of Turkey, but it could have very well have gone the other way.
