I still remember that debate. Everyone who heard it on the radio said NIXON won hands down!

Those who saw it on TV said Kennedy won because Nixon looked “shifty”.

Since that time a Presidential candidate has to be very “photogenic”. Substance be d*mned. Does he look Presidenital?

Since I was only 5yo at the time, I might need to give this a listen just to get a sense of history. Of course, I’ve seen snippets of the TV broadcast but never the entire thing.
