President Nixon in the Fifties?

With Nixon before the hippies, would we see a war on drugs? Would we see hippies o_O?

We'd probably see some sort of movement happening in the mid-to-late 60s, if for nothing other than the fact that the Baby Boomers would be reaching their teens and twenties around that time, and also as a reaction to the hidebound, conservative culture of the 50s. Depending on the effects of the Nixon presidency and the subsequent administrations (especially with regards to the civil rights movement, Vietnam) as well as the advent of the birth control pill and other technological advances, it could be either much milder and less wide-spread than OTL or perhaps, much more militant and worse.
 
Probably not, and rightly so. JFK wasn't bright.

Bright enough to look like he´s bright its enough to be PoTUS IMHO. Damn it wasn´t intended, but it looks like a tongue-twister.
As almost every single one to this day ... I don´t think it was specially dumb, in fact It was one of the less dumb persons to end in that post ...
