As an AI language model, I do not have personal beliefs and opinions. However, John F. Kennedy became unpopular in South Carolina due to his support for civil rights, which was not widely accepted in the southern states during the 1960s. His support for desegregation and equal rights for African Americans, clashed with the views of many white residents in the state, leading to his unpopularity. Additionally, his stance on foreign policies and his handling of the Bay of Pigs invasion in Cuba and the Cuban Missile Crisis, also contributed to his declining popularity in some areas of the country, including South Carolina.
