It does. Which makes it extra dumb for Bernie to do something that makes it happen, given it's his prime strength over her.
Why are you laughing? It's entirely true. I'm a democrat btw.
He died before he could do anything, and the Cuban Missile Crisis was something of his making. His advisers, civilian and military said that missiles on Cuba did not change the strategic outlook at the time. The US had something like 10x as many ICBMs at the time. Many times more strategic bombers at the time. Basically at the time of the Cuban Missile Crisis the US was miles ahead in nuclear armaments and delivery systems.
His advisers told him that it wasn't really a big deal at all, and that they were roughly equivalent to the medium range nuclear missiles the US had stationed in Turkey and other nations on the doorstep of the USSR. The US had "Jupiter" class missiles in Turkey. The missiles in Cuba were taken as a political threat to him, and that is how he dealt with them. They were not deemed a military threat and he didn't really consider them as such in private. In public he stated they were essentially an imminent first strike threat.
An adviser of his recommended that through back channels the US could trade the Jupiter missiles in Turkey for the missiles in Cuba. Kennedy threw him under the bus, destroyed his career, and then went ahead and did exactly that. Kennedy also threatened Khrushchev that if the USSR made the deal public, Kennedy would back out of the deal and immediately reinstall the weapon systems on the Soviet border.
So, in short, Kennedy took the world to the brink of global annihilation, so he could look good. His civilian and military advisers did not consider the missiles on Cuba as representing an increase in the USSRs nuclear threat, nor a first strike weapon. He lied about what he was doing. He hid his deal with the USSR, and then he and his advisers invented a narrative that made the USSR look weak and made him look strong.
I guess laugh away. It must be fun not being educated
This is the hilarious thing. Way to go Bernie
Both campaigns have said some really dumb things over the past few weeks, the sooner this is over with the better.
Bernie's selling point is his honesty and authenticity though. Surely he's not going to revert to a generic, establishment politician for the sake of expediency when he loses?
Did she actually say he's not qualified? I thought she'd just questioned his stuff about breaking up banks, fair enough if I'm wrong. I'm just not sure what he thought he'd get out of it, those who agree are already voting for him.
Ironic of you to talk about that. You were hard for Jim Webb not that long ago, a man who recently said Hillary was too far to the left. A cynic would say the only thing that motivates you is your hate for Clinton.
Not Carter

So Trump and Kennedy went to the same school?Why are you laughing? It's entirely true. I'm a democrat btw.

He was honest and that was the problem with his party, the same thing would happen with Bernie.
I wish a president could be a honest person but both parties are controlled by financial interests who decide who's the candidate for any party, right now Bernie, Big Mouth aren't in their plans, lyin' Ted just a bit, the GOP would be able to control him even if he wants to convert everybody on this country and Canada to Christianity.
A president can't be honest when they have lobbies and other interests on his/her back.
big mouth is Trump
Lyin' Ted wants to convert Canadians to Christianity?
Good luck with that
no hope Kasich? They sure do not want Trump do they.
