Kennedy now contended that both sides had a vital interest in stopping the spread of nuclear weapons and slowing the arms race--a contention which led to the test ban treaty of 1963. The months after the Cuban crisis showed significant progress toward his goal of "a world of law and free choice, banishing the world of war and coercion." His administration thus saw the beginning of new hope for both the equal rights of Americans and the peace of the world. http://www.whitehouse.gov/history/presidents/jk35.html

JFK would be considered a conservative today and I do admire him for being tough. The reason he was shot was due to:
1.) His reluctance to send troops to Vietnam 2.) His desire to bypass the Federal Reserve and have the Treasury Department print money (which is why Lincoln was shot). 3.) LBJ wanted to be President and hated Kennedy 4.) Using Marilyn Monroe to spy on the MAFIA and CIA (This is why Marilyn was murdered and later Bobby)
