Read scenario carefully: Nixon narrowly defeats JFK in 1960. Throughout Nixon's Presidency, the unemployment rate decreases from 6.6% in January 1961 to 5.2% in November 1964. Inflation also remains low throughout Nixon's Presidency. Nixon passes civil rights legislation and also creates a Medicare-like program for seniors. Also, there is no Cuban Missile Crisis since Nixon never places American missiles in Turkey and thus the Soviet Union feels unprovoked. Nixon does not send any American troops to Vietnam since he feels that it would be a strategic mistake, and instead prefers to bomb the Viet Cong whenever they cause trouble. Also the Bay of Pigs invasion is a success and Castro is removed from power, to be replaced with an American-leaning capitalist dictator. There are no other major foreign policy crises throughout Nixon's Presidency. The Democrats nominate JFK again in 1964, due to many Democrats' desires to give this rising star another chance against Nixon. You pick the VPs. How would this election turn out?

Nixon/Lodge-344 EV-53.79%
JFK/Terry Sanford-194 EV-44.91%
