2. Ok, but JFK like all presidents did compromise with his opponents
and was slow on moving civil rights and other "progressive" policies. You can overlook that if you like and it doesn't make JFK a less compelling figure either.
p.s.
he didn't break up the CIA--he started to be more open minded about 'advice' from the Joint Chiefs of Staff--which is good for him.
