The U.S. presidential election of 1960 came at a decisive time in American history. The country was engaged in a heated Cold War<span> with the Soviet Union, which had just taken the lead in the space race by launching the Sputnik satellite.

On the domestic front, the struggle for civil rights and desegregation had deeply divided the nation, raising crucial questions about the state of democracy in the United States.At a time when the need for strong leadership was all too obvious, two vastly different candidates vied for the presidency: </span>John F. Kennedy, a young but dynamicMassachusetts<span> senator from a powerful New England family, and Richard Nixon, a seasoned lawmaker who was currently serving as vice president.
