President John F. Kennedy was born 90 years ago today! He was born May 29, 1917. Kennedy was the youngest ever elected to the office at the age of 43 (Theodore Roosevelt was 42 when he became President, but it was due to the assassination of William McKinley).
President Kennedy was in office less than 3 years. His life was tragically cut short, at age 46, when he was assassinated on November 22, 1963, in Dallas, Texas. Lyndon Baines Johnson succeeded Kennedy as President.
