There have been some pathetic turnouts for Republican rallies and speeches recently, especially among the second tier candidates. Rick Santorum gave a speech recently at which one person showed up. Here is a shot of the 1960 Presidential election winner, early in the primary season.

In the early 1960's, the FBI was tracking what went on in Jack Kennedy's apartment at the Carlyle Hotel in New York, and in particular, the "sex parties" that occurred there, at least according to Mrs. Jacqueline Hammond.

Some of the participants mentioned in a recently released (under the FOI Act) FBI report include:  Frank Sinatra, JFK's younger brothers Bobby and Teddy, Marilyn Monroe, Sammy Davis, Jr., and Mr. and Mrs. Peter Lawford (Mrs. Peter Lawford was JFK's sister Patricia).

POTUS 35 - President John F. "Jack" Kennedy: Johnny We Hardly Knew Ye

click to enlarge

President John F. "Jack" Kennedy was only President for 1,000 days. He got into two hairy situations with Cuba. He was another President who liked to party, and despite having a good looking, intelligent wife, he had numerous girlfriends, including Judith Exner, Angie Dickinson, and Marilyn Monroe.



JFK was killed under still mysterious circumstances in November, 1963. Five years later, his brother (Attorney General, and for all intents and purposes Chief of Staff, Chief Domestic and Foreign Policy Advisor, and Secretary of Defense and State), Bobby underwent an incredible transformation, and would surely have been elected President in 1968, had he, too, not been murdered by a deranged assassin. His younger brother Teddy made a couple of runs at the White House, but never got the traction he needed, and went on to become one of the longest-serving Senators of all time.
