...John F Kennedy entered politics without any experience and won a seat in the US Congress in his very first election!
Serving first in the House, and then the Senate, he aspired to the highest position any American can hold...President!
But he faced a major hurdle...the fact he was a Roman Catholic in a country that had previously only had Protestants as Presidents, and many believed a Catholic as President would prioritize the Pope's wishes and Vatican dictates over America's needs.
Kennedy emphasized that he believed in the division of Church and State and that he would always do what was best for the USA, first and foremost...
