I will confirm that it was in 1960. Kennedy won as the result of winning the debates and looking much better than Nixon.

You likely don't care about this, but I was riding around through various headquarters in 1960 till seven in the morning. When I finally came home to angry parents the contest had still not been decided. It wouldn't be till nearly noon, when Nixon graciously conceded the State of Illinois.

ok, so which you my pal wrote waaaaaaaay to plenty and that i did no longer examine all of it yet right this is the element... every person can vote for the candidate they experience might fulfill the placement the final. you ought to evaluate the background of the party yet no longer inevitably base a decision on a cadidate from the background. this is variety of like asserting your great great great grandma become a undesirable individual and commited a crimes and because you're a decendant of her you ought to be a undesirable individual too. you'll be between the kindest human beings on the city yet for the reason that your great great great grandma become a criminal human beings decide you from that. - a similar is going with the political events; no person ought to base a decision on the reality that somebody in the party did something that become unacceptable so every person in that party must be only like that. Generalizing issues like that's no longer continuously the final. human beings ought to vote for who's the final candidate and not for the background of the party. African American human beings can elect whom ever they think of might make the final candidate; in the event that they think of a democrate may well be ultimate for the placement then so be it!
