http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Sta ... a,_1950The weekend after the primary, Nixon campaign officials held a conference to discuss strategy for the general election campaign. They decided on a fundraising goal of just over $197,000 (today, about $2,400,000). They were helped in that effort when Democratic Massachusetts Congressman John F. Kennedy, a political opponent of Nixon's, came to Nixon's office and gave him a donation of $1,000 on behalf of Joseph P. Kennedy, Sr., his father. John Kennedy indicated that he could not endorse Nixon, but that he would not be heartbroken if Douglas was returned to her acting career. Joseph Kennedy later stated that he gave Nixon the money because Douglas was a communist. Else further, a very strange turn of events.I noticed too elsewhere how easy a ride the wikipeople give Prescott Bush

John F Kennedy was a nice man period, however, his father was a crude, rude, conniving Mick, a near billionaire, from being in bed with chief Mafia figures, going back to the bootleggin days of AL Capone and Frank Costello, Kennedy;s friend in New York. Joe Kennedy is alleged to have stolen a truck or two of Capone booze and took it ot the Boston marketwithout paying for it and tribute so a death contract was placed on his life by the Chicago mob. Had it not beenfor the intercessions of Meyer Lansky and Frank Costello, Kennedy would have been killed eventually.
