  • Thanks for posting this debate. I'm grateful for the look at history...

  • @ScorpioMensan1 - You're very welcome! Glad you enjoyed it! :D

  • wow, anyone see similarities between this and the 2008 election? old experience vs young optimism played out on TV, which was the deciding factor? i think kennedy had his ideas ready in his head before the debate, and was inflexible with the flow of the debate. nixon had tons of experience in debate, but his points were murky and at times it seems he would lose communication with the general public. all in all, im really disappointed that this has recieved less than 10,000 hits. shame on yall

  • @thesamnsays The other segments of the debate that I have uploaded have much more than 10,000 views!

  • History can't rightly judge JFK, because he never finished his 1st term. The Bay of Pigs Invasion was a fiasco planned by the GOP during the Eisenhower Administration. JFK stood up to the Russians, forcing them to withdraw missiles from Cuba. Republicans claim JFK a mediocre president, but that has more to do with politics and less to do with facts.

  • @AppleMacRSA It wasn't one mistake.

  • @thesamnsays It is pointless to blame us, the very people who are watching the debate, that not enough people have watched the debate.

    its like blaming teachers for the fact that not enough people want to be teachers.

  • @thesamnsays Someone needs to get off of his pretentious high horse.

  • If you think about it, they both had very similar approaches to the problems. In generally these two presidents had many things in common. However, you got to admit that if not the debates, Nixon was more likely to win the election. Especially after his success against communist spies and Hiss's trial.

  • Great Debate rip JFK AND RN

  • @ItsAllAboutGuitar LMAO... oh man... socialists in America running for president... Say man... lemme know when you get off the ride, cause it sounds like a mad-cap fun rollercoaster...
