During John F. Kennedy’s presidential term he had both many great moments, as well as some poor ones. His greater achievements included creating the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), and avoiding a nuclear war with the Russians in the Cuban Missile Crisis and a more. But he had some major flaws such as the failed invasion at the Bay of Pigs. The plan was to train Cuban exiles by the CIA, they came up with a plan to sail into the Bay of Pigs and was ashore and go on with their plan to kill Fidel Castro, this was not the case.
Instead of washing ashore they hit a coral reef and started to swim ashore, when they got to the beach they were surrounded and killed. It is believed that some had previously tipped off the Cubans and the U.S. knew about it but went forward with the plan after all. Kennedy was a great president, he may have had his fair share of ups, and downs but at the end of the day, he was a great president. Moreover JFK was a great president ever since the first televised debate to happen between John and Richard Nixon. Kennedy was calm, collected, and very professional, while Nixon was sick and looked pale due to him not wearing makeup.
