And JFK had 3 of the 4 jobs at about the same time.
There was talk of JFK for VP in 1956, JFK's father supposedly made a cash offer to LBJ to have his son as LBJ's VP. That didn't work out.
Then JFK wanted to be the VP on a 1956 ticket with Adlai Stevenson. Lucky for him that didn't happen either.
So he came close to having all 4 jobs.
