They come from a time when American lives meant more than anyone else. In today's world we treat all human life pretty much the same. To them 1 american was worth more than 100 of any other country's population. They also believed in total war. Which is why they wouldve never lost. Great men in my eyes

No. Kennedy and Truman were for not listening to these nutjobs. I call them crazy because it’s either that or they were just plain stupid. Your choice I guess.

Only a fool would believe that nuclear war can not come to America.

What an odd interpretation given the fact that LeMay (in the quote from the OP) actually says that public opinion in the country was the opposite of what you say. Oh well. Just another low-information voter spouting nonsense.
