On October 22, 1963, one month before the Kennedy Assassination, Adlai Stevenson went to Dallas and was assaulted by a protester. Because of this incident, Stevenson tried to tell Kennedy not to go to Dallas. In OTL, Kennedy didn't listen and decided to go anyway, and we all know what happened.

What if Kennedy did listen to Stevenson and decided not to go to Dallas on November 22, and wasn't assassinated. What would happen then?

He would probably beat Goldwater in a similar landslide as Johnson. Of course, than he might face the same backlash from Vietnam as Johnson did, unless he handles it differently.

So, how would things be if Kennedy wasn't assassinated?
