1960 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION
肯尼迪相信，由于他的年轻、天主教的信仰、来自民主 党内领导人的有限支持以及自己身体方面的疑问，都表 明他无法在1960年有把握地竞选总统。事实上，肯尼迪 觉得这件事本身就是一种前所未有的政治能力的表现。 虽然在美国历史上曾有一小批候选人在不到50岁入主白 宫，但还没有谁在43岁就登上总统宝座。在威廉· 麦金莱 总统遇刺后，时年42岁的西奥多· 罗斯福继任了总统职务， 但他在1904年竞选连任的时候已经46岁了。更重要的是， 历史上只有一位天主教徒竞选过总统——1928年的阿 尔· 史密斯，并且他惨败在赫伯特· 胡佛的手下。 尽管如此，肯尼迪仍宣布他有意在1960年大选中竞选美 国总统。
In 1946, U.S. Representative James Michael Curley vacated his seat in the strongly Democratic 11th Congressional district in Massachusetts—at Joe's urging—to become mayor of Boston. Kennedy ran for the seat, beating his Republican opponent by a large margin in November 1946.He served as a congressman for six years.

1960 presidential election
• On January 2, 1960, Kennedy initiated his campaign for President in the Democratic primary election, where he faced challenges from Senator Hubert Humphrey of Minnesota and Senator Wayne Morse of Oregon. Kennedy defeated Humphrey in Wisconsin and West Virginia, Morse in Maryland and Oregon, as well as from token opposition (often write-in candidates) in New Hampshire, Indiana, and Nebraska. Kennedy visited a coal mine in West Virginia; most miners and others in that predominantly conservative, Protestant state were quite wary of Kennedy's Roman Catholicism. His victory in West Virginia confirmed his broad popular appeal. At the Democratic Convention, he gave his well-known "New Frontier" speech, saying: "For the problems are not all solved and the battles are not all won—and we stand today on the edge of a New Frontier ... But the New Frontier of which I speak is not a set of promises—it is a set of challenges. It sums up not what I intend to offer the American people, but what I intend to ask of them."

John F. KennedyThe early yearsJohn Fitzgerald Kennedy was born in Brookline, Massachusetts on May 29, 1917, the great-grandson of Irish immigrants. Young Jack Kennedy was the second child in a family that would eventually have nine children. He was sickly as a child and continued to have health problems in the rest of his life. Despite his illnesses, Jack liked to compete in sports, the competitive spirit largely encouraged by his father. He attended private schools his whole life including the famous prep school, Choate. He then attended Harvard (1936-40) majoring in Political Science. John Kennedy was an active undergraduate and graduated cum laude. Graduating from Harvard in 1940, he entered the Navy.The War Hero•In World War II , he was a naval officer.In 1943, when his PT boat was rammed and sunk by a Japanese destroyer, Kennedy, despite grave injuries, led the survivors through perilous waters to safety. Shortly after the war ended, his political career began.The politicianBack from the war, he became a Democratic Congressman from the Boston area, advancing in 1953 to the Senate. He married Jacqueline Bouvier on September 12, 1953. In 1955, while recuperating from a back operation, he wrote Profiles in Courage, which won the Pulitzer Prize in history.The presidentIn 1960, Kennedy was nominated to run for the presidency against Richard Nixon, Eisenhower's Vice President. Millions of people watched his television debates with the Republican candidate, Richard M. Nixon. Winning by a narrow margin in the popular vote, Kennedy became the first Roman Catholic President.His Inaugural Address offered the memorable injunction: "Ask not what your country can do for you--ask what you can do for your country." As President, he set out to redeem his campaign pledge to get America moving again. His economic programs launched the country on its longest sustained expansion since World War II; before his death, he laid plans for a massive assault on persisting pockets of privation and poverty.Responding to ever more urgent demands, he took vigorous action in the cause of equal rights, calling for new civil rights legislation. His vision of America extended to the quality of the national culture and the central role of the arts in a vital society.He wished America to resume its old mission as the first nation dedicated to the revolution of human rights. With the Alliance for Progress and the Peace Corps, he brought American idealism to the aid of developing nations. But the hard reality of the Communist challenge remained.Foreign policy problems facing KennedyCold War rivalries with RussiaThe Bay of Pigs Fiasco 1961(US assisted invasion of Cuba exiles fails disastrously)The Berlin Wall 1961Cuban Missile Crisis 1962While the world trembled on the brink of nuclear war, the Russians backed down and agreed to take the missiles away. Kennedy now contended that both sides had a vital interest in stopping the spread of nuclear weapons and slowing the arms race--a contention which led to the test ban treaty of 1963. The months after the Cuban crisis showed significant progress toward his goal of "a world of law and free choice, banishing the world of war and coercion." His administration thus saw the beginning of new hope for both the equal rights of Americans and the peace of the world.On November 22, 1963, when he was hardly past his first thousand days in office, John Fitzgerald Kennedy was killed by an assassin's bullets as his motorcade wound through Dallas, Texas. Kennedy was the youngest man elected President; he was the youngest to die.Historical SignificanceJohn Kennedy was important more for his iconic reputation than his legislative actions. His many inspiring speeches are often quoted. His youthful vigor and fashionable First Lady were hailed as American royalty; his time in office was termed "Camelot."。

1960年1月2日，星期六，肯尼迪在参议院秘密会议厅里 向300名支持者正式宣布竞选总统。4月5日，在威斯康 星州的初选中，肯尼迪获得了56.5%、总计476 024张 选票，为该州57年来候选人在初选中获得的最多票数。 而且肯尼迪在10个地区中赢得了6个地区的多数票，从 而赢得了该州60%的大会代表。
1960 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION
肯尼迪相信，由于他的年轻、天主教的信仰、来自民主 党内领导人的有限支持以及自己身体方面的疑问，都表 明他无法在1960年有把握地竞选总统。事实上，肯尼迪 觉得这件事本身就是一种前所未有的政治能力的表现。 虽然在美国历史上曾有一小批候选人在不到50岁入主白 宫，但还没有谁在43岁就登上总统宝座。在威廉· 麦金莱 总统遇刺后，时年42岁的西奥多· 罗斯福继任了总统职务， 但他在1904年竞选连任的时候已经46岁了。更重要的是， 历史上只有一位天主教徒竞选过总统——1928年的阿 尔· 史密斯，并且他惨败在赫伯特· 胡佛的手下。 尽管如此，肯尼迪仍宣布他有意在1960年大选中竞选美 国总统。
