National Affairs: Dreamboats
Democratic dreams of the day, as told by Massachusetts' presidentially hopeful Senator John Kennedy about himself, Missouri's equally hopeful Senator Stuart Symington, and power-playing Senate Majority Leader Lyndon Baines Johnson of Texas:
"Several nights ago I dreamed that the good Lord touched me on the shoulder and said, 'Don't worry, you'll be the Democratic presidential nominee in 1960. What's more, you'll be elected.' I told Stu Symington about my dream. 'Funny thing,' said Stu, 'I had exactly the same dream about myself.' We both told our dreams to Lyndon Johnson. Said Lyndon: 'That's funny-for the life of me I can't remember tapping either of you boys for the job.' "
