Are you saying that Kennedy won because women were allowed to vote? Actually, Kennedy won because dead Democrats were allowed to vote.
Time to start suscribing to The History Channel, Nyah. Though JFK did utilize it more (and it probably helped get him votes since Nixon looked so bad in that televised debate - most who listened on radio felt Nixon won), the first 'television' President was Eisenhower; by the time Kennedy was elected there was probably at least one set in most households.
And...women were given the vote in the 1920's.
