Kennedy got to the moon by giving some Nazis a free pass for heavy participation in the Holocaust.
Clinton got to the White House by pushing for and signing the death warrant for a man who was executed with a mental age of 9 as a campaign stunt. Also a serial molester.
Obama became Pakistan’s No.1 Wedding crasher, had a personal kill list, reneged on his promise to close the US concentration camp in Cuba and bugged Merkel’s phone.
If these are the best examples someone can come up with, it rather illustrates how we got to this point. Those were the “good” ones.

Okay, so... you have scientists that know how to solve life-saving problems, but they used to work for the bad guys.
Do you execute them and society continues suffering.
Or do you offer them a chance at redemption.
Don't get me wrong, as hate nazis as much as everyone else. But I'm also a believer in restorative justice. Using their knowledge for the benefit of humankind is much more useful than just shooting them.

Were ICBMs for the benefit of humankind?

This is a bit of a stretch. Von Braun and co already got their free pass long before Kennedy became president.

Yep. But they gave him a Nobel Peace Prize for... saying nukes are kind of bad?

I think it was meant to be aspirational. Like he would have to earn it. Obviously it didn't work.

Operation Paperclip was 1945
Kennedy assumed office in 1961.
If Clinton was willing to raise the taxes on the highest earners by 7% a few more times I'd let him fuck me in the ass and watch him fuck your wife, too.
