A nice contrast to the Nixon ad below, this 1960 JFK ad is darn perky. Damn, such high hopes we had.

About Me
- Gael Fashingbauer Cooper
- I'm an entertainment editor at MSNBC.com, and have maintained Pop Culture Junk Mail since August, 1999. The New York Times called the site "one of the best places to explore pop culture online," and Entertainment Weekly included it on their Top 100 Web Sites list. If you like weird food, strange products, and 1970s and 1980s nostalgia, PCJM is your home away from home.
I have a brand new BOOK, written with Brian Bellmont. "Whatever Happened to Pudding Pops? The Lost Toys, Tastes and Trends of the '70s and '80s." Buy it online, and follow our retro reminiscing on our GenXtinct blog, Facebook, and Twitter.

Really enjoy your blog! It's amazing to me that since JFK, so many people really want to like their politicans. Aren't they politicans? Why do we insist upon liking them?
Crazy, huh?
if you're loving the vintage footage, check out this site, which features such gems as the "Your Life Work" series.
like, for example, this fine film.
That was awesome. I like how positive it is compared to modern political ads. He really knew how to work the modern media.
