Was JFK really a good president?

I’ve always wondered about the fascination about JFK. Other than being a handsome playboy from a legacy family (FDR gave JFKs dad a lot of power/1st SEC Chair) what did he do? He didn’t even get a full term down.

Its pretty clear the Mafia and some Unions “helped” get JFK elected. Isn’t the whole story Karmic Justice?
