Kennedy forced to turn on politicos who aided him
In a blunt political reckoning, President Kennedy dispatched a harsh rebuke to Alabama Governor John Patterson and other figures who aided his rise, arguing that leaders who help a president must be held to account. The piece threads Patterson’s role in Kennedy’s nomination with broader reminders of past party power brokers who aided or resisted the candidate. It notes Patterson’s ties to segregationist forces, factional fights within the Democratic Party, and the potential political bite of such high level disloyalty in coming elections. It also recounts historic nominations backed by FDR era bosses and the fates of some who aided his rise.
