Why is it important that John F. Kennedy became a president?
John Kennedy was the first ( and only) Roman Catholic to be elected president. This fact is important to Catholics and may still have some bearing on the theory of how electable a candidate is. At one time, being a Catholic was a huge liability for a presidential candidate, but that handicap may have disappeared before Kennedy ran. There are still people who would not vote for a Catholic, but there are also a lot of Catholic voters. John Kennedy was the first president from Massachusetts since John Adams and John Q. Adams. His election may have revitalized Massachusetts politics, since at least three candidates from Mass. have run since, although none have been elected. Every US president has considerable influence on the country and in the world while they are in office , so the choice of the president is important. However, Kennedy was not in office for even one full term, so I can not see any exceedingly great importance to his election.

Did John Kennedy give Jacqueline Kennedy something to speed her death?
No***************************************************John F. Kennedy died November 22, 1963Jackie Kennedy Onassis died May 19, 1994What could he have given her to "speed her death" 31 years AFTER his own?AnswerThe question was obviously not about the late president, but his son John Kennedy, Jr.Because the former first lady had cancer and was on morphine for the pain, people have speculated that perhaps as a mission of mercy she or her children asked the doctor to administer a fatal dosage so that her suffering would end. Again this is speculation as no one there (Carolyn, John, Jackie's long time boyfriend, other family members or her medical staff) has ever come forward to even suggest that was the case. So, no. There is no reason to believe that John Kennedy gave or asked someone to give Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis anything to speed her death.
