Virtual JFK: Vietnam If Kennedy Had Lived

The film employs what Harvard historian Niall Ferguson calls "virtual history," assessing the plausibility of counterfactuals—"what ifs"—and their outcomes. At the heart of the film is the question: Does it matter who is president on issues of war and peace?
