Our New President - President Donald Trump
I was born 18 days before Kennedy became President.
...You mean before JFK's inauguration ? I was alive for practically an entire year with Ike as Prexy - My Democratic parents voted for Ike in 1956 (tbe first Prezelection after they got married), mg mother laughed " Didn't everyone? " !
I think they both quite liked highly liberal Republican Nelson Rockefeller (governer of NYS during those years and perpetual GOP wannabe nominee) - I don'f think they were super in love with JFK and I don't think they cared for his brothers at all - My father told me he voted for the Republican incumbent whom RFK defeated to become NYS senator because " I didn't want a Kennedy dynasty " , he said quite strongly!
If RFK had not been murdered and had gotten the Dem '68 nomination and there was less rioting might the Reps have gone for a less " law and order " candiidate in Rocky? Maybe my parents would have voted for him then !

Yep. 18 days before January 20, 1961, Kennedy's inauguration.
Rockefeller might have been good, actually. The Last of the Mohican Liberal Republicans, so to speak.
Ironically, a man named William Rockefeller "fell asleep at the wheel" when a Metro North train derailed in the Bronx. He was found to have narcolepsy.

It's a 0 right now, he hasn't turned in any work so there's nothing to grade. When he's able to actually get legislation signed then I'll start judging, until then he's just a delinquent skipping class.
You have selective listening, as I said, I'm for it because I'm dangerously close to the threshold for a subsidy. If I have a bad year and drop below ~20k I would have to have a subsidy to afford healthcare, so while it doesn't impact me now it's a very real possibility in the future.
Actually I took that into consideration, due to Auntblabby worrying about losing his subsidy. And while I'm sympathetic to that, I don't think my aunt and millions of others should have to be stuck with something they never wanted. To me it's a far worse situation than tax payers covering ER visits by the uninsured.
You're right I lumped you in, soz.
VIDEO: Students love Trump's tax plan...when told it's Bernie's
http://www.campusreform.org
Students love Donald Trump's tax plan when it's packaged under Bernie Sanders' name.
President Donald Trump’s proposal for comprehensive tax reform was almost immediately dismissed as heartless and impractical by his political opponents.
But what would some of those opponents think if they were told the same plan was being proposed by someone they adore—Senator Bernie Sanders?
[RELATED: VIDEO: Students despise Obama policies...when credited to Trump]
To find out, we headed to George Washington University to ask students their opinions on Trump’s new tax plan. WIthout much explanation, the students immediately made clear their distaste for the plan.
“It’s not the most efficient, nor beneficial to the general populus,” said one student when asked her opinion of Trump’s plan.
“It’s better for the upper class than anyone else,” added another.
After watching student after student express their disapproval of the plan, we then asked those same students what they thought of Senator Bernie Sanders’ new tax plan.
Immediately, they expressed excitement and support after hearing the details of the plan.
The only problem for them? There was no tax plan for Senator Sanders. The plan they loved was actually President Trump’s.
How did they react? Watch the full video to find out!

Some people are completely incapable of seeing past the left vs. right paradigm.

...RFK had been Joe McCarthy and Roy Cohn's favorite Democrat in the 50s and I think some of the more left-y end of the Democrats - the " Old Old Left " - never exactly forgave him for that"! He got named AG by his brother when he had just graduated from law school, IIRC....I bet Trump WISHES he could get away with that one !
There's also the matter of those books " written " by JFK...cough, cough... .
Say, did you send me a link to a YouTube of a NYC subway train arriving at a subway station in Queens? A Manhattan-bound train. The clip was only 64 seconds long or so.

NRA urging people to arm themselves and be prepared to take to the street to defend the Presidency.
I get that more violence = more gun sales so it's pretty see through, but that sounds like a crazy announcement to make. It's urging tension between citizens (which urges violence between citizens), sounds very anti American to me.

Defend the Presidency: from what?
Most people don't object to the Presidency; they object more to the present President. But only a very few--perhaps a similar amount to when previous Presidents were in power--want to overethrow our government.
The NRA is talking out of its butt in this case.
