When he was assassinated, JFK's approval rating was higher than the highest level achieved by Truman, Eisenhower, Johnson, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush, Obama and of course Trump.
His second term would have been a slam dunk.
Had it not been for that act of lunacy, I believe we would have been spared the horrors of Vietnam and the Cold War politics that gave us the ugly world we live in today.
This is not wishful thinking, it's based on how he handled the Cuban crisis. Had Nixon been President, WWIII would have started.

I believe so; particularly if Goldwater would still have been the Republican candidate. Johnson carried all the liabilities that JFK would have, and JFK was better liked than LBJ. And what a difference that would have made historically since JFK already was committed to exiting Vietnam in his second term, and had his staff working on that.

Yes,probably - assuming Barry Goldwater had still been the Republican candidate,and that the President's personal affairs had continued to be covered up by the media.

I'd think he would,his approval ratings were always positive but not knowing the Republican candidate

He almost certainly would have been re-elected in 1964.
