This is the right answer.
I think the bigger question is how different would the world be had the election not been stolen from Nixon?

I tend to go with this. The Vietnam "memo" is something taken out of greater context. JFK's whole foreign policy is based on NSC 68 and the anti-communist ideology of Paul Nitze. JFK was a Cold Warrior through and through. Not a man of peace.
His martyrdom created a mythology that doesnt jibe with reality. The higher likelihood is that JFK escalates Vietnam, esp since he was the one who already escalated it to begin with.
Domestic policies would be similar to LBJ, just with a nicer smile attached.
