  • He invited photographers into the White House to take candid photos of him and his family, helping to create the Kennedys' Hollywood-like mystique

      My question is answered. These candid photos of the perfect American family surely garnered him support. Did the attractiveness of his family help him? Most likely the people were just as intrigued by the image of upper class eastern life that the Kennedys presented, with it's fashion, athleticism, education, all resources which were starting to become increasingly valuable with the mass market.
  • Kennedy's ads presented him as ready to lead during a time of great tension in the world, highlighted his commitment to create jobs and equal opportunities for all Americans, and questioned whether Nixon was exaggerating his experience.
  • "Television is all about image, not substance,"

  • "He looked sick, but also a little unsure," Albert W. Upton, who had been Nixon's drama coach at Whittier College, told The New York Times. And Nixon's former law partner, Thomas Bewley, said, "Dick just didn't look good. His...clothes were wrong. He didn't have the old spirit."

      Style over substance in the Mass Media. The Kennedys were always avid presenters, able to make others view them in the best light possible. They carefully crafted their image to conform to the American ideal.

      A lot of these articles mention Kennedy's physical attractiveness. Did that add to his appeal? Perhaps it gave him additional celebrity and helped to make him a public figure, beloved by the people. Did the Media's coverage of him help in this respect? Did the images presented of him always show him at his best? Perhaps he new how to use his handsomeness and the press to his advantage as he knew he would appear to advantage in photos and on television.
