This was one of the closest elections in American history. Then, in 1963, when Kennedy had been in office for over two years, he was assassinated in Dallas, Texas by Lee Harvey Oswald. Kennedy was said to have been campaigning for the next election when it happened. There are many conspiracies over who actually killed Kennedy and why. 
In the 1964 Election, Lyndon B Johnson beat Barry Goldwater by a landslide, receiving 434 more electoral college votes than Goldwater. Once Johnson was in office, he began pushing for civil rights and the idea that America should become a "Great Society". He wanted Americans to have access to better education and Medicare, and to eliminate poverty. In the 1960's, the Vietnam War enraged Americans. Teens were drafted into war were mostly poor, which made it even more controversial. Civil Rights was also a big movement, and in 1964, LBJ passed the Civil Rights Act, prohibiting whites from discriminating African Americans publicly. ]]> 2016-05-11 16:50:21 UTC https://padlet.com/gnsteele24/etfgovfnxkua/wish/110377737 Economy omalley1234567 https://padlet.com/gnsteele24/etfgovfnxkua/wish/111277830 1) The economy in the early 1960's was slow and stagnant, and a stock market crash in 1962 did even more damage. However, Kennedy's tax cuts in response to the crash and the increased demand for production as we prepared for war are both credited with stimulating economic growth, and the economy grew steadily through the end of the decade

2) The unemployment rate started at 7%, though toward the end of the decade it had dropped slightly to around 4%.

3) There were no major shortages during the 1960's

4) The tax rate was relatively high early in the decade, although the Kennedy-Johnson tax cuts reduced these rates significantly
