He didn't die on your birthday, you were born the day he was shot. Unless you are 41 years old.
JFK wasn't all that of a good guy as all the hype would want us to think (thank god I'm not in the u.s. facing some fanatic mob). His campaign was financed by his parents' dirty money. They were bootleggers, sold alcohol during prohibition, loansharks, ect...many times...ect...
JFK shot? Anyone getting shot kinda sucks. I don't think shooting JFK is worse than shooting some homeless person - it only got more news coverage...
