    Honestly, JFK only for Jackie's sake.  She was such a good person and didn't deserve the life she got.

    Tough call.

    Lincoln staying alive and President means that Johnson's racist Reconstruction plan would not have taken place, and Southern rebellion and racism could have been far more firmly stamped down.

    OTOH, JFK staying alive, and there's no question he would have won the 64 election, and the US doesn't go into Vietnam in any major way.
