Donald Trump is the first president since John F. Kennedy to face the same unique set of challenges that JFK inherited in 1961. History is repeating itself - abroad the Communist coalition that JFK predicted formed in 2016 and Russia and China are openly challenging the U.S. for global supremacy, at home issues like privacy, net neutrality, the First Amendment, women's rights, climate change, civil riots, data protection, immigration, and Medicare are all issues JFK sought to manage in different circumstances.JFK's response was to cause disruption describing the challenge as a race against technology in his "New Frontier" speech accepting the Democratic Party nomination to run for the presidency in July 1960. He launched America on a race to develop both civilian and military technologies, to be "pre-eminent" or face the demise of its democracy - "can a nation organized and governed such as ours endure?" he warned, repeatedly speaking about his race in the late 1950s and early 1960s.JFK created disruption as America faced the Consumer Age, and the lessons we can learn from him are just as applicable today in the age of the Internet of Things.
