[?] unstable a personality as to be quite vulnerable to certain kinds of psychological pressure. The outstanding neurotic elements in his personality are his hunger for power and his need for the recognition and adulation of the masses. He is unable to obtain complete emotional gratification from any other source.? Whenever his self-concept is slightly disrupted by criticism, he becomes so emotionally unstable as to lose to some degree his contact with reality.? [His] egoism is his Achilles heel. The extreme narcissistic qualities of his personality are so evident as to suggest predictable patterns of action during both victory and defeat.

It appears 3X in my lifetime, miscalculation first by JFK and RFK, second by the strong 1972 election showing by Nixon,
and thirdly, the 2016 presidential vote, there have been overwhelming example of momentous misjudgment resulting
in the hammering of JFK, and then in two presidential elections voters literally hammered themselves.
The only thing that has changed is that personality traits once obvious to the Kennedys as grave threats to US national
security have later been venerated by enough presidential election voters to matter.
We are embroiled in a current crisis putting the actual future of the U.S. in doubt. Has the continued focus on the
Assassination of JFK been overtaken by current events to the degree it is merely a psychological refuge....now that
we venerate, elevate, and attempt to defend strikingly similar "evil" the Kennedy brothers recognized for what it
actually was, and attempted to destroy?

Mark, you are likely the most enlightened individual I have so far encountered. You practice open mindedness
and an absence of defensiveness. Your background is incomparable.... at least to me, fascinating
So, I'll ask you. Do you think people who screw themselves, en masse, even notice the resulting consequences?
By 1945 the German citizenry got to see and smell, close up, what their earlier decisions had cost them.
In the US, has it become our custom to confine direct consequences of societal misjudgment to JFK and Nixon?

Are we teaching our children to rule out pre-emptive war, government sanctioned assassination, blacksite waterboarding
or dishonesty as useful tactics?
If a society just doesn't own up to colassal political misjudgment, does that misjudgment stealthly stink up
the place? Kavanaugh met his now wife when she was personal secretary to GW Bush, 2001 - 2005. There is an
influential and closely connected group (swampettes) behind the curtain. They were recently complicit in lying us into war in Iraq but haven't lost their clout.

To answer your question, Tom..... no, the swampettes have not lost their clout. And as for ignoring 'resulting consequences'....... wait, that wasn't the word you used. Noboby cares anymore. After the OSS, it all went to pot. Makes me nostalgic reading all their old war tales.
