Kennedy-Nixon First Presidential Debate, 1960
Loading...
Uploaded by JFKLF on Sep 21, 2010
On September 26, 1960, Senator John F. Kennedy and Vice President Richard Nixon stood before an audience of 70 million Americans—two-thirds of the nation's adult population—in the first nationally televised Presidential debate. This first of four debates held before the end of October gave a vast national audience the opportunity to see and compare the two candidates, and ushered in a new age of Presidential politics.

@greenpeices When you understand who controls the world's money supply, you understand how all these wars are started and why they are escalated. They are begun and furthered by people you nor I will ever see. These big money interests, in conjunction with organizations like the CIA, the MOSSAD, are responsible for most of the wars started. Vietnam started with a lie about the Gulf of Tonkin incident, same thing Iraq. Big money interests are at stake. You and I are cannon fodder.

@greenpeices The Vietnam conflict began long before Kennedy ever took office. They were shipping WWII supplies from Guam and Midway straight to Haifong harbor after that war was over. The real battle was whether to escalate the war. Kennedy planned a withdrawal of the advisors in his second term via NSAM 263. Google it. In his interview with Walter Cronkite in 1963, he said he didn't think the war was winnable. He was right.
