Nixon was a better President than Kennedy even despite his bullshit. Both of them had mental issues though.
Levi Perry
I agree
bump
Charles Gonzalez
Why not like both? Nixon fought commies and JFK died trying to prevent Israel from getting nukes and wanted the destruction of the CIA.
Brandon Sanchez
Neither were that great or that bad
LBJ on the other hand was absolute iredeemable dogshit
Robert Myers
tfw Goldwater didn't win
Henry Robinson
They were both anti communist
At the same time they never accomplished much
Chase Hughes
>tfw no Nixon/Goldwater Roman co-Consul system
It's not fair, bros.
Adrian Peterson
Kennedy tried to weaken the CIA and paid with his life.
Hunter Martin
>muh kennedy was good and the CIA is bad
Get fucked, communist scum
Owen Scott
Wrong!
>giving a fuck about politics when younger
>not giving a fuck about politics when older (you know you always get fucked anyway)
Blake Parker
it was Lyndon B. Johnson
you are a kike
James Richardson

Jacob Taylor
that's literally the "babbies first conspiracy" bullshit that kennedy drones shill out
I hate the Kennedies so god damn much
Nixon was the adult law and order candidate, America never deserved such a great man
Justin Long
>Nixon creates EPA
>EPA makes sense
James Torres
That really won't work. IIRC, Goldwater never really liked Nixon, although he did give him a chance when he was president.
Landon Wood
>CIA sympathizer
Get a load of this cuck
Robert Nguyen
But Nixon was crooked.
Cooper Mitchell
he was not a fucking crook fuck off, people need to know if their president is a crook, he was not a crook, he was NOT
Carter Foster
Yeah well the Roman consul system never really worked well either.
It would probably lead to a Junta led by Based Curtis Lemay. So nbd
Landon Wright
>B-but kennedy looks so young and hip! I am the average voter hurr fucking durrrr
Evan Hill
>I don't read history and take wikileaks and infowars seriously: the post
Jack Hill
too fucking right
adults listening on radio all agreed Nixon destroyed Kennedy
children watching on the damn tube on the other hand
>lol look nixon is sweating!!!
>kennedy has a nice smile, he's got my vote!
And then Kennedy even had to cheat to win
Henry Parker
Explain how the incompetent retards at the CIA who fucked up the bay of pigs are "based"
Ryder Cook
>Kennedy run operation of paying a bunch of dumb cubans to overthrow their government failed
Wow it's fucking nothing.
The CIA hit a lot more than they missed. This is a fact.
Jaxon Howard
Can someone explain to me (shit canadian education) why nixon was good?
Daniel Hall

Then he was shot
Isaac Baker
Benjamin Bailey
>JFK
>anti-communist
Didn't he convey to Castro through a reporter that he wasn't ideologically opposed to Communism and just wanted the safety of Americans guaranteed?
Joseph Rivera
>Kennedy run
No it was run by the CIA and planning predated Kennedy's term. Then they blew it a year later by telling Kennedy Russia would never put missiles in Cuba a month before the Cuban Missile Crisis.
That was the context of that Kennedy quote, he was tired of the CIA's incompetence
Lucas Brown
I have that quote framed on my shelf :)
Michael Torres
Wat
Kennedys always hated communism
Isaiah Roberts
Ended the Vietnam War, created the EPA, indexed Social Security to inflation, reopened diplomatic relations with China (driving a wedge into the Soviet bloc and arguably the geopolitical masterstroke of the 20th century), ended the nuclear arms race with START and began the decade of detente, began the Space Shuttle program (though that was fucked up by the Ford, Carter, and Reagan administrations)
Jose Moore
He didn't actively try to destroy the country like LBJ and Carter did
But otherwise he was nothing special. You could say he learned from his mistakes as president which helped him fix the economy during the energy crisis Israel created
Jackson Flores
Nixon was better just by the virtue that he wasn't a meth head who tried to fuck everything that moved.
Dylan Gray
true
Oliver Gutierrez
Nixon was a saint and only ever had sex with his wife, he had two kids so i assume they had sex twice
JFK was a typical kennedy womaniser chad who fucked everything
Nixons first move when he entered the whitehouse was to throw away all the smutty films and magazines that JFK/LBJ had left behind
Aiden Morgan
Kennedy hated communism and wrote sympathetically about Germany in his 1930s diaries. That's a big reason why him and his family that fought all went to Asia during the war despite being east coasters.
Thomas Green
Also founded OSHA
Gabriel Young
Childhood is thinking Kennedy performed better at the first debate. Adulthood is realizing that Nixon was just a sweaty mess of a human who had great answers
Mason Powell
Nixon was basically the last serious president the US has had. Everyone since has been a clown show. And Reagan is very overrated, as he declined to fight the culture war and instead focused on wasting trillions to fight an already collapsing Soviet Union.
Jose Gomez
nixon was so intelligent he could give a speech on pretty much any topic for 30 minutes with little or no preparation, he came from the very bottom and rose to the greatest office in the world through sheer intelligence, especially as he had zero charisma which makes it even more amazing
Nicholas Sullivan
Why is Nixon generally considered to be a bad guy by most?
Andrew Campbell
Reagan did worse than that
>He gave millions of Mexicans amnesty turning California blue permanently
>Killed the unions
>Jump started outsourcing to asia
>Deregulated Wall Street essentially legalizing securities fraud
>Raised social security and payroll tax
>Started no fault divorce legislation
>Closed mental hospitals
>Ban guns
The only good thing Reagan did was increase spending and stimulate the economy. Oh and he started aggressively looking up ooga boogas for drugs
But then under him the CIA was selling crack and using the profits to buy weapons from Iran
Dominic Rogers
He hated the east coast establishment and Nixon was an introvert who hated TV/live interviews. The media was out to get him from day 1
Leo Thomas
Watergate
And boomers wanted to blame him for Vietnam when LBJ started it
Oliver Watson
Lyndon Johnson, but probably w the help of the CIA
Grayson Anderson
He did a ton of shady stuff
Liam Hall
Didn't they all?
Parker Foster
nixon had voice activated sound recorders in many rooms of the whitehouse
Lincoln Peterson
>created the EPA
>good
Juan Long
True. His biography is inspirational
Jaxon Torres
have you read "being nixon"? it's very good and impartial
