History generally paints a good picture of JFK. It's difficult to say if the praise is deserved or part of the mystique. I tend to think it is deserved. He did implement some decent tax cuts that helped the economy and he saw us through the missile crisis (though some would say he had a hand in its cause). Since he didn't have the opportunity to complete a term, we'll never really know how good he may have actually been. As far as the Kennedy’s wanting to establish a monarchy, all I can say is that I am glad that Ted never became president. It was interesting to see so many of the Kennedy clan showing support for CA’s new moderate Republican Governor. All in the family I guess. I kept it calm... lol.
