Some quotes from JFK (in bold) that are not in keeping with the Democratic party any more, followed by a dimbocrap response, written by me on their behalf.

John Fitzgerald Kennedy quotes
“The rights of man come not from the generosity of the state but from the hand of God”
2013 Dim: There is no God, if there was He is a bigot, and there are no natural rights, only the rights the government allows. This also violates the first amendment protection from religion.
“All of us do not have equal talent, but all of us should have an equal opportunity to develop our talents.”
Equal results are even more important, and so we support use of quotas to neutralize talent and training to even the playing field among all people...unless you are a privileged white heterosexual male, of course.
“Children are the world's most valuable resource and its best hope for the future”
The planet is over-populated and we must reduce the number of children it has and will have.
“Let us not seek the Republican answer or the Democratic answer, but the right answer. Let us not seek to fix the blame for the past. Let us accept our own responsibility for the future.”
The President, if a Democrat, is always right, and if he is a Republican, always wrong.
“Ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for your country.”
Ask for your country to take care of you, and never stop asking; it is good politics.
“Do not pray for easy lives. Pray to be stronger men.”
How sexist and able-ist can you get?
“Dante once said that the hottest places in hell are reserved for those who in a period of moral crisis maintain their neutrality”
There is no Hell, and if there were, it would be full of Republicans anyway so what's the point?
“The ignorance of one voter in a democracy impairs the security of all.”
Ignorance makes for good reliable, pliable, buyable voters.
“Too often we... enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought.”
Thought is not important; coming to the politically correct conclusion is what is important.
“If we are strong, our strength will speak for itself. If we are weak, words will be of no help.”
Strength is so last century, and macho is so threatening, violent and offensive to any citizen of the planet.
“Today, we need a nation of Minutemen, who are not only prepared to take arms, but citizens who regard the preservation of freedom as the basic purpose of their daily lives, and who are willing to consciously work and sacrifice for that freedom”
Minutemen? RIGHTWING EXTREMIST ALERT!
“This country cannot afford to be materially rich and spiritually poor”
More violation of the First Amendment, and material wealth is all that there is that is worth pursuing. Even our RINO allies agree with that.
“True happiness is the full use of your powers along lines of excellence in a life affording scope.”
What a nerd.
Today JFK would walk out of the Democratic party and likely disown the rest of his family.
