>> was his brilliant idea of a Naval Blockade that turned the Soviets in the Cuban Missile Crisis and averted global thermonuclear warfare Sounds more like their incompetence brought US there. Furthermore, the Soviets were the winners - they got the US to remove its missiles from Turkey - something kept secret from the US public at the time. The Soviets took the US - but the Kennedys were more interested in domestic pr than reality. Bobby Kennedy was a skunk and the supreme political opportunist of his and any generation. He was scion of the most corrupt family - a genuine organized crime family - in US politics. The Kennedy regime was fully incompetent - whether it's because JFK was a drug addict or because of RFK's lousy judgment. Vienna, Cuba and Berlin were all fiascoes. Other leaders considered them second-rate or worse. Cuba and Berlin happened because the Soviets saw the Kennedys in action and were unimpressed. RFK was certainly the most unscrupulous man* ever to serve as AG - they even passed a law to prevent that from ever happening again. Thank goodness Hoover used his power to keep them somewhat in line. * assuming Reno isn't a man
