Governing from inexperience

Rather than an explanation, conservative lawmakers were given a cryptic, I won as his “reason”.

Was that prompted by inexperience or arrogance?

Inexperience showed in 1961 when 44-year-old President John F. Kennedy carried out the ill-fated Bay of Pigs invasion in Cuba.

A similar plan had been discussed, though never carried out, when Dwight Eisenhower was President.

Eisenhower was a professional military tactician. John Kennedy was not, yet he carried out his invasion anyway.

As we all know the invasion was a miserable failure and severely embarrassed the Kennedy Administration.

Speaking about how John Kennedy handled the Bay of Pigs, General Eisenhower said, “A 2nd Lt. without combat experience could have done better.”

Symbolically speaking, how many “Bay of Pigs” will we see during the Obama Presidency?
