#1 If they had any intentions of reciprocating friendship, we would have been friendly to them all along. I think they are jumping the gun here a little. Big O is going to be running for re-election from day one.

#3 If I remember right, all American Republican presidents had in one way or another waged a war against another country.

You don't remember right. Linclon, Republican, waged war against his own country. Eisenhower ended the Korean War which started under Democrat Truman. Ford ended the Vietnam War, started under Democrat Kennedy. Democrats both started and ended American involvements in WWI and WWII. Republicans did not even exist for the War of 1812.

#4 While you have proposed a popularist theme, My reading and listening of the released Kennedy archives STRONGLY suggests that Eisenhower (as an advisor to Kennedy) both initiated containment efforts of the yellow menace in southeast asia AND introduced the reactive strategy which created the Cuban crisis that spineless Kennedy backed away from.
