Nixon Outlines Campaign Vision and Administration Hints
Vice President Richard Nixon previews a Republican bid, saying his campaign will present his own views, not the Eisenhower administration’s. He expects a hard, close race with Sen. John F. Kennedy, notes possible cross- party cabinet picks, and envisions broader duties for the VP while pledging to campaign in more states than in 1952 or 1956. Kennedy faces a strong Midwest, Kennedy strong in New England, and the race is a national battleground.
