Bush would be with out his... each is and was relatively young, and inexperienced, popular with female voters, both percieved as charming, neither has been in the public eye for long, kennedy wasnt seen as bright until 1960... GW bush has yet to reach this pinnacle however... 1960 markets did better in continental europe, than US. in yrs 1959-59, 98-99 long term bonds where creamed, and both in 1960 and 2000 LT bonds rose in Price... intresting facts...
