Kennedy was before my time but if I had to guess...

He would call ISIS a terrorist organization and devote resources to snuff it out.

He would ease racial tensions by speaking out when individuals were wrongly killed despite their race/religion opposed to only making statements/attending funerals of people in certain classes.

He would struggle with "income inequality" just the same as anyone today or in the future because it is a made up political term and it will never be settled.

Putin is another one where I think he would struggle just like anyone else...that guy is not going to be intimidated and he doesn't care what others think.

Yeah. He was a pretty smart guy and he wasn't intimidated by the Joint Chiefs. JFK was the last president to be clearly working for the good of all the people.

JKG would be consider way too conservative for the Dem now ... I pretty sure of that. and I am sure he will disagree with the current plans lay out for America against ISIS or Russian too. :) That is all I can sure off ... anything else ... ... can't said.

It's hard to say. He was very pro human rights and terrorism was not a problem when he was alive
