John Kennedy was a republican? Who have thunk it?!

The George Wallace "Schoolhouse Door" incident was in June, 1963.

I'd suggest you consult a good history book for who was president then.

How can you be so historically ignorant?

OBTW, the 13th amendment was authored by a democratic senator.

Make that co-authored:

"On January 11, 1864, Senator John Henderson of Missouri, a War
Democrat, submitted a joint resolution for a constitutional amendment
abolishing slavery. The Senate Judiciary Committee, headed by Illinois
Republican Lyman Trumbull, began considering the various versions of the
abolition amendment. On February 8, Senator Charles Sumner of
Massachusetts, a leading Radical Republican, submitted a constitutional
amendment to not only abolish slavery but also guarantee equality under
the law. Two days later, spurred partly in reaction to Sumner’s more
radical proposal, the Senate Judiciary Committee reported to the full
Senate an abolition amendment combining the drafts by Ashley, Wilson,
and
Henderson."--http://13thamendment.harpweek.com/hubpages/CommentaryPage.asp?Commentary=05ProposalPassage
