How were Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan similar as presidential candidates?

John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson were both very different men, but they were similar in some ways. Obviously, they both ran as President of the United States. They both ran in the same political party of democrats. Johnson a Texas democrat and Kennedy from Massachusetts. They both exelled in debates too. Johnson was deeply into debate through highschool and college and took part in regional debate competitions. Kennedy's debating, which was the first presidential debates aired on television, was a major of the reason he beat Nixon in the election. Of course people who listened on the radio said that Nixon would have won, which leads to the fact that some of Kennedy's votes were from how he appeared on the debate showing.
