Why do most Massachusetts politicians face a presidential curse since JFK's 1960 win?

Michael Dukakis, Paul Tsongas, John Kerry, Mitt Romney, they all don't succeed in their presidential runs.

Elizabeth Warren, etc. may never make it. Seth Moulton, Deval Patrick, Charlie Baker.

Is it a curse?

Yes, it's a curse. The FBI did a Satanic ritual to kill JFK and prevent anyone from Massachusetts ever becoming President again.

It probably has more to do with the perception of Massachusetts that some Americans have: "Taxachussetts," "coastal elitism," etc. All that.

Joe Kennedy was the latest casulty. He was looked upon as a prez candidate, but he quickly faded.  SSM issue is the key stumbling block to MA politicians. If RFK succeeded in running for prez, history would of been different
