That's a really great question. I have no way of knowing, it's well before my time. I'll try and do some digging.

When JFK ran there wasn't as much in depth scrutiny from the media. Not as many stones were overturned. I'm guessing if the media was as vulturous as they are now, there is no way JFK gets the nomination. Too many Marilyn's and probably quite a few shady dealings/tax shelters etc.

Great thought though.
