After doing some research for an assignment for University, I had discovered an interesting tidbit about our late 35th President. That he due to his sickly nature had been given his last writes four times before his death in 1963. For the most interesting POD, What If JFK never woke up from his coma that he slipped into after having his Urinary track-infection surgery in October of 1954?
So who might Governor Christian Herter choose to replace JFK's vacant Senate Seat?(Pappa Joe, Bobby, Herter himself?) Also what effects might this have on the 1960 US Democratic Nomination race assuming that Stevenson gets a second nod in '56? Might Estes Kefauver be able to hold onto to his frontrunner status and finally be able to clinch the nomination? Does either Humphrey, Johnson, Symington, Smathers or Brown have what it takes to beat Vice President Nixon in the General Election? What could be some other possible outcomes of an earlier JFK Death?
