Kennedy as a potential 1940 Democratic standard bearer
In Lincoln, Boake Carter surveys possible 1940 presidential contenders. He notes Roosevelt remains popular yet third term talk wanes, Garner holds steady support, and Kennedy emerges as the only new name with traction. Carter highlights Kennedy’s blunt realism, practical leadership, and appeal as a common-sense rabble rouser, while weighing ambassadorial fit and national mood.
