John

Born as John Fitzgerald Kennedy, I was born on May 29, 1917 to Rose Fitzgerald and Joseph Patrick Kennedy. I was named after my maternal grandfather John "HoneyFitz" Fitzgerald, the mayor of Boston. I was a very sick little boy, and was given the last rites 5 times, the first time being when I was a newborn. I was born to an Irish Catholic family with 9 children... I was the 2nd born of four other boys. There was Joseph Jr., John (me), Robert (we called him Bobby), and Edward (we called him Ted, but sometimes I call him Teddy). Because Rose made Joe and I wear matching clothes (which is kind of a pain), we fought a lot for attention. When I was young the family moved from Boston to New York, where I went to Choate, a private school. Most of the time, though, I was too sick to attend. In the late 1930s my father Joe became the ambassador to England. Me and Robert with him, as well as mom, and my sisters Kathleen and Rosemary. I started going to Princeton and then Harvard and for my senior thesis I wrote a piece about why England refused to get into the war until later. It was published in 1940 and called Why England Slept. My older brother Joe was a flyer during the war, and one day while he had bombs with him his plane exploded. Not long after that, Kathleen and her husband died in a plane crash... I still haven't really gotten over those events. In the early 1950s, I decided to run for Congress in Massachusetts and won! I married Jacqueline Lee Bouvier on September 12 1953, and I've loved every minute of our marriage ever since! Our first child, named Caroline Bouvier Kennedy, was born on November 27, 1957 and then John Fitzgerald Kennedy Jr., was born on November 25, 1960. We had a son named Patrick Bouvier, but he died a few days after his birth... It sucked seeing Jackie be so sad. In 1954, I had to have back surgery and in the hospital wrote my second book, Profiles in Courage. Joe Sr. always said that his son Joe was going to be President; when he died in WWII, though, I took the title. I ran for president in 1960 against Richard Milhouse Nixon and won.... But my administration had many conflicts, the Bay of Pigs and the Cuban Missile Crisis being key examples. In November of 1963 Jackie and I went on a trip to Texas. Everywhere we went there were signs saying "Jack and Jackie." On November 22, 1963 I was to give a speech in Dallas, but on my way there, I was shot by an assassin on the 6th floor of the Texas Book Depository... Dang, that's kinda harsh... In just a little bit of irony, considering the death of Lincoln 100 years earlier, I was shot in a Ford Lincoln (Lincoln was in Ford's theater when he was shot). I was shot 2 times and died at about 1 pm. I was laid to rest on my son's third birthday.
