Kennedy used many metaphors to appeal to his audience.
For example, he refers to dictators of the past saying,
"those who foolishly sought power by riding the back of the tiger ended up inside,".

What is the meaning of such a metaphor in this 21st century?
Do you think President Obama would pay any heed to such a statement made by a late President?

The metaphor is saying dictators have no friends.

Only dumb people would serve them.

Kennedy was a crook and philanderer. He cheated on his wife almost every afternoon.

Not only that, he is also a security risk.

He uses LSD with Mary Meyer
He told state secrets to Marilyn Monroe, Inga Arvad, who was in Hilter's closed circle
He is also friendly with Sicily mafia, Sam Giancana.

Also, he neglected some state business to have orgies, risk of STI.

Bad president, Bad husband, Bad man but good father

It showed his disdain for dictatorship. Not all dictators are bad though and I can recall one that has done good for the country. The late South Korean President Park Chung Hee laid the foundations for his country's industrialization and rapid economic growth and after that South Korea was able to transform from a backward rural economy to its current status as an economic, industrial and technological power. Samsung and a few others are now world leaders and household names...

Park is personally responsible for creating the chaebols which China followed (let the few prosper first, and the rest follow.)

The trouble is that the chaebols grew bigger and bigger despite needing a govt bailout in 1997 crisis. And their Confucius culture falls apart to a material culture of privileges and slaves.
