[edit]Kennedyesque (comparative more Kennedyesque, superlative most Kennedyesque)
- Reminiscent of John F. Kennedy (1917-1963), former president of the United States.
- 1995, Paul R. Henggeler, The Kennedy persuasion: the politics of style since JFK:
- With little subtlety, candidates aped selected Kennedyesque features. Johnson hobnobbed with intellectuals; Nixon walked by the water; Carter rolled up his shirt-sleeves; Hart jabbed his index finger into the air; and Clinton played touch football.
