There had to have been some kind of reason for the press to have revealed everything that they knew about Jack Kennedy - EVERYONE knew he screwed around... THAT would have been the killer. The press just liked him too much. My God what a different world.
Without Johnson Kennedy would have had a very hard time in 1964 regaining many of the Sthn states he won in '60. However, remember that the southern democrats had been able to BLOCK the civil rights bill in congress all thorugh 1963 - unfortunately one silver lining of his death was the amount of pressure placed on the dixiecrats to allow it thorugh.
Rockefeller was popular - but I very much doubt he would have beaten Kennedy.
