The Kennedy Brothers Attend The Democratic National Convention
1960 was the year where one of the most important Democrat National Conventions was held in July of that year. John F. Kennedy was a senator then, who won the Democratic nomination largely thanks to the fantastic campaign that his brother Robert managed. It was also his passionate personality and oratory that brought him to this leadership. In this photograph we see John talking to his brother Robert about who he intended to make Vice President. They were seated in John’s hotel room, speaking softly about how Walter Reuther would not be the Vice President. John Loengard, the photographer at the scene, described how Robert would later storm out in a rage, swearing about how much he despised Lyndon Johnson.
