Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev's lack of respect for President John F. Kennedy stemmed from several factors, including the latter's perceived inexperience and the tense backdrop of the Cold War. Khrushchev viewed Kennedy as a young and politically naive leader, especially after the Bay of Pigs invasion, which he saw as a failed attempt by the U.S. to undermine Cuban sovereignty. Additionally, Khrushchev's aggressive approach to foreign policy and belief in Soviet superiority contributed to his dismissive attitude towards Kennedy, whom he thought could be easily manipulated.

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.

Is it proper protocol for the media to call President Obama Mr. Obama and not President Obama?

Using the title of President instead of Mr. is a sign of respect for the office of the Presidency of the United States and should be used when addressing or speaking of the President. At times, however, it would be appropriate to call him "Mr. President". All citizens should honor the office of President and give due respect. You do not have to agree with someone to show them the respect of their position. If someone is the President of the United States and especially if you are a citizen of the United States, then it follows that you should show respect and address him as President, for example: President Obama - not Mr. Obama.
