John F Kennedy Jfk Assassination

John Fitzgerald Kennedy was born in Brookline, Massachusetts on May 29, 1917. John, also known by “JFK” or “Jack” was the 35th President of the US. Before his presidency Kennedy racked up political experience with serving time in Congress. Kennedy would serve in both the House of Representatives and the US Senate. Before that Kennedy enlisted in the Navy just before the second world war. After his training Kennedy commanded a patrol boat in the South Pacific. Injuries John sustained from the war would later plague him temporarily resulting in surgery on his back. Kennedy became one of the youngest Presidents elected at the age of 43 years old. Unfortunately, Kennedy was not able to fulfill his term after being assassinated three years

With financial stability and his younger brother Robert managing the campaign JFK won once again climbing up the political ladder. Not only did Kennedy win the votes but he did so at a time when his party was not in control. The Republican party was in control of both Houses in Congress. Kennedy’s victory gave him substantial pull in the political community. Yet despite that he was still not accepted among senators. “Senator Kennedy was never a full-fledged member of the Senate’s inner circle.” But it wasn’t just his views that swayed people. Jack was energetic. He was full of youth. He brought change in more than one way. JFK was a political figure that America hadn’t seen yet. He was iconic in the eyes of Americans. He came from a wealthy prominent family with a great education. His war heroics and ambition to achieve more made him desirable by most people across the country. But it wasn’t until he found love that everyone would want to be like the Kennedy’s. Shortly after his election to Senate Kennedy met a bright young socialite from the New England area. Jacqueline “Jackie” Bouvier met Kennedy at a party where they instantly felt a connection. In 1953, they married and she was Jackie Kennedy. She was the perfect addition to the Bostonian senator. They became the “gold standard” for an American family and what they should look
