The media pretended that FDR was not in a wheel chair, did not have a long time mistress. They pretended that JFK was not on drugs (for medical reasons) and was faithful to his wife, who later it is said married Onassis for protection.

I once read that Jackie married Onassis because he was the only person rich enough to provide her with the privacy she sought.

Then that was the protection she was seeking.

Okay here's a link to the photo that ended up in my high school '64 yearbook. The shutter clicked as a hysterical voice on the intercom announced JFK's assassination. November 22, 1963

Yes it does, though we thought we were pretty dang smart. Looking at this pic brought in a flood of memories. I wondered about the kids I went to school with and what happened to them. Then I realized it is highly possible the majority of them are now gone. I do know some never made it to adulthood because they died for nothing in Vietnam. Sad and mad all at the same time.

Ha! It's been a long time since I looked at that pic. I can see my youngest grandson in my face. He is now older than I was then. :-)
