John F Kennedy was not really an outsider when he ran in 1960.  Sure he was a Catholic, but he was a high-profile long serving congressman from a family already relatively well-known in Democratic circles who commanded support from a lot of Democratic elites during his primary run.  If he was truly an outsider he would not have defeated LBJ and Stevenson on the first ballot before primaries were really important, lol.

Not to mention Truman was literally picked by the establishment to oust Wallace.
