Answer: The ideal answer should include:



  • Kennedy believed that prosperity was the best way to spread the fruits of affluence.


  • He supported corporate tax cuts to stimulate the economy.


  • Although Democrats held strong majorities in both houses, powerful conservatives in the South often teamed up with Republicans in Congress to defeat reform legislation.


  • Kennedy knew that it would be futile to champion the cause of civil rights in the face of that alliance.


  • Kennedy supported issues important to his working-class constituents and proposed a number of legislative initiatives to improve the lives of working-class Americans.
