Despite the fact that in this post, he accepted several important decisions, in the consciousness of most people, especially outside the United States, his name is primarily associated with mysterious murder. And although the official criminal who fans in John Kennedy were found, numerous hypotheses are discussed so far.
From the biography of John Kennedy it becomes clear that he especially and there was no other choice but to become a politician. He was born in Brooklass, in the family of a businessman and a political figure of Joseph Patrick Kennedy and his wife of Rosa Fitzgerald, who studied charity. John received her name in honor of his grandfather, John Francis Fitzgerald, who was the mayor of Boston and was considered one of the most eloquent politicians of the country. By the way, and on the paternal line at the future presidents were mainly political figures.
John was the second child in the Kennedy family, but not the last - roses and Joseph had nine children. The boy hurt a lot and grew pretty chilly, he even could die of scarlet in early childhood. And in the school years, Kennedy spent most of the time on the hospital bed. But at the same time, the teenager was sports: he loved to play baseball and basketball, was fond of athletics. In the high school classes, the young man had a reputation as an inorganized and non-serious student, which behaves defiantly and "Bunctors".
From higher educational institutions in the biography of John Kennedy, Harvard University, London School of Economics and Political Sciences and Princeton University, but because of constant diseases from the first time he did not graduate from any of them. Another person in his time was even diagnosed with leukemia, in which he did not believe and was right. Later, John again becomes a student at Harvard and this time belongs to studying with all seriousness. He became interested in political science and history, succeeded in student societies, continued to actively engage in sports. After receiving a diploma, John Kennedy decided to continue their education and went to learn the right to the Yale University, but the Second World War began and brought up in patriotism and self-sacrifice the guy goes to the army.
Because of his bad health, it could not be taken to the Armed Forces, but John almost once in his life used the authority of the family to achieve his own. Moreover, the future president John Kennedy was not going to sit down in management, but sought to participate in hostilities. As a result, he falls on the Pacific Fleet as an officer of the high-speed torpedo boat, where he fought against the Japanese army. There are confirmed historical facts that in the battles John Fitzgerald Kennedy showed heroism, his team's exploits were written in newspapers, and John himself was awarded a multitude of military awards.

President John Kennedy
Soon after dismissal from the Armed Forces, Kennedy was engaged in journalism, but then he agreed to the state of his father and plunged into the political life of the country. He entered the ward of US representatives instead of Congressman Michael Kurley and began a political career. In 1953, John is already senator. In this post, he was remembered, first of all, the refusal to buy the Senator Joseph McCarthy, accused of anti-American behavior, as he worked with his native brother. Subsequently, Kennedy will say that "fulfilled the usual error rate for the policy."
In 43, John Fitzgerald Kennedy as a candidate from the Democratic Party wins the presidential election and becomes the first Catholic, heading the United States. By the way, it was during the election campaign that the first in the history of the televisers between applicants for the post took place. And many oppositionists argued that the victory went to Kennedy because he looked very impressive on the screen. The president donated the entire state salary for charitable needs, and the basis of his rule was slogan: "Think not about what a country can give you, but about what you can give it."
The internal policy of President Kennedy cannot be called definitely successful. The initial surge of the economy was then changed by the stagnation, accompanied by the most sharp drop in stocks on the stock exchange since the time of the terrible collapse of 1929. John managed to reduce the unemployment rate and lowered the prices of oil and steel, but because of this worsened relations with industrialists. At the same time, it was thanks to the president who were taken serious steps to normalize the racial issue and the equation of black people in rights. And the race with the USSR for the development of space led to the beginning of the scale "Apollo" program. Interestingly, the US President suggested the Secretary-General Nikita Khrushchev to unite efforts in this matter, but received a refusal.

Subsequently, the wife of Kennedy will be one of the most popular women of America and the present legislature of fashion. They had four children, however, the eldest daughter of Arabella and the younger son of Patrick died in infancy. The daughter of Caroline Kennedy became a writer and a lawyer, like John Fitzgerald Kennedy Jr., who received the nickname "Son of America", as he brought up in the White House in front of the whole country. In 1999, Kennedy Jr. died in a plane crash.
It's hard to judge how much the marriage of John Kennedy and Jacqueline was happy, since literally on the eve of the marriage of a man had a serious affair with a Swedish girl of the Gunille background post, and earlier the president consisted of a romantic relationship with Artist Maria Pinchot Meyer, actress Jez Tarnney and Angie Dickinson, and Also, some Judith Campbell. But after the wedding, Kennedy had at least two star mistresses - Hollywood diva Marilyn Monroe, as well as the German legendary film actress Marlene Dietrich, which was not only much older, but earlier was one of his beloved his father.
Already in the XXI century, after declassifying documents, the public found out that the 35th president suffered from the strongest pain. No treatment helped him, and John before press conferences was forced to make novocaine injections. Peru Kennedy owns a number of books, the most famous of which is a collection of biographies of politicians "Courage Profiles", for which the author received the Pulitzer Prize. Also became the bestseller "Personal Diary of the 35th President of the United States", where John put his sayings and thought and which was published after his death.

On suspicion of the murder of Kennedy, the former Marinenet Lee Harvey Oswald was arrested. Interestingly, they detained him for killing a policeman 40 minutes after the death of the president, but during the investigation, he turned out to be the main suspicion. Since Oswald, two days later shot a local resident Jack Ruby, burst into the plot, then there is no specific testimony of this person. By the way, Ruby also lost his life, so the murder of John Kennedy still remains one of the biggest mysteries in the history of the United States.
