JFK health

[Keith Millea]

I have heard this too. It was in Timothy Leary's auto biography as well. Can't recall who is source was for the moment. I'm not sure he was an addict but he did have treatment from Dr. Feelgood and used amphetamines. How often I don't know.

Well,with most everyones mom taking diet pills(amphetamines)in the 50s/60s,people didn't consider them very dangerous at the time.Still,if I thought that JFK was addicted to meth,it would change my whole outlook on his ability to govern.Addicted?He didn't seem to have the characteristics of a speed freak,so I'm somewhat confused by the earlier quote:

John Kennedy had his personal demons. He was addicted to IV "meth" methamphetamine) and steroids because of his severe back pain and chronic Hodgkins disease.
