Adlai Stevenson shunned emotionalism and appealed to reason. As a speaker, he had an unusual command of language and a sharp and subtle wit. His eloquent speeches and statements were directed toward educating Americans on the nature of the world in which they lived and the challenges that faced them in it.
He twice gained the Democratic nomination and was twice defeated by Eisenhower but how would a Stevenson administration have handled the cold war would Stevenson and Khrushchev have begun an earlier dentate? How would the civil rights movement have been impacted? And how would the careers of Kennedy and Nixon have been altered (who might have come to prominence in this ATL who remained obscure in OTL?)?
