The main reason that john f. Kennedy selected Lyndon Johnson, a Protestant Texan, who provided geographical and religious balance to a ticket led by a Catholic Northeasterner, but many liberals did not like the pick.

Kennedy won the 1960 presidential election for two reasons. Kennedy's strong and energetic personality and his reaction to Dr. Kennedy's arrest. Martin Luther King Jr.

Kennedy defeated incumbent Vice President Richard Nixon, the Republican candidate. This was the first election in which his 50 states participated and the last in which the District of Columbia did not participate, marking the first time Alaska and Hawaii participated.

john f. Kennedy was nominated by the Democratic Party on July 15, 1960, National Convention, and nominated Senator Lyndon B. Johnson as his running mate.

What is President Roosevelt’s primary purpose in his State of the Union address?
rodikova [14]

President Roosevelt aims to instill hope and inspire citizens to help in the efforts of war.

<u>Explanation: </u>

Americans honor Franklin D Roosevelt as the leader who guided them out of the 1930's Great recession and through history's biggest global war. As an author of drastic change in his culture, he ranks among Jefferson, Lincoln, and Wilson.

The words of his inaugural speech on 4 March 1933 are once again echoing throughout the world: ' We must just fear ourselves, the nameless unreasonable, unreasonable terror that paralyzes required efforts to translate retreat forward. '

The American people voted Roosevelt President by a broad margin in 1932, at their pinnacle with the Great recession and the opposition candidate, Herbert Hoover, unable of effecting any change or inspiring hope.

While the recession was less than over, the very first term reforms in banking, healthcare, unemployment, job relief, and retirement FDR offered a sense of security and hope for millions they had never before known.
