    Imagine Bobby winning the election. Nixon concedes defeat. Bobby
    is
    sworn in
    as President in 1969. What would happen? Would he have been a

    President

    What would his foreign policy be? Would his domestic policy be
    better
    than
    Lyndon Johnson's?

    I think he would have been a better president than
    JFK but he might have gotten us into some worse skirmishes since it
    seems he had a hotter head.

    "Worse" !!!
    Jesus man! That Democratic fucktard war monger POTUS JFK took a
    little immaterial backwater Military Assistance Group task and
    blew it up into over 500,000 boots on the ground and 57,000
    of our finest youth dead!!

    And you think the little brother could do worse!!
    Yeah, mushroom clouds over Massachusetts!
