Photographer Anita Hansen returned to this same location on the following day, Septiembre 13, 1960, to witness a similar parade featuring Senator John F. Kennedy and his running mate, Senate Majority Leader Lyndon Johnson. - Stephen Fagin, Curator
This signs and banners in this photograph, with slogans like "Youth for Nixon," "Teenagers for Nixon," and "College Students for Nixon," speak to the significance of young people, including those not yet eligible to vote, in the 1960 presidential election. Senator Kennedy had succeeded in energizing much of America's youth in a manner not witnessed in previous presidential elections. While many were not yet old enough to cast a vote, their infectious enthusiasm certainly influenced popular opinion and their support was coveted by both candidates. One of the most popular political buttons of the 1960 campaign read simply: "If I Were 21 I'd Vote for Kennedy." - Stephen Fagin, Curator
