It honestly depends on how he wants to play it is my understanding of his character. He was somewhat more like Nixon back then, more moderate than he was by '68 if only because he didn't have extreme amounts of conviction either way. He might have decided to go with the left wing of his party back then, which means a tacit but delayed approval of at least one variation of the Civil Rights Acts we had. It'd be kind of hilarious if say he won the primaries in '60 and unwitting rehabilitated the Dem's history with African-Americans; implausible but hilarious.
I'm just curious on how the other demographics we have would change with a different party dynamic than we have nowadays. For example, if the Latino/Hispanic populations were less split between the parties and other things like split ticketing and so on.
