As an individualist, he rambled through the countr"side seeing people and places, and ma+ing them his own. His e(periences in earning a living were variedG at times he was a printer, a teacher, a carpenter, a nurse and a newspaper editor. He was a big;hearted man, open and accepting. He gave $reel" o$ his time b" caring $or the wounded during the Civil 6ar. 4hough he lived in the cit", he o$ten spent time in the countr", developing his strong sense o$ nature, which carried through to his poems. In 10** he collected the verses he had written, and published them in one thin volume, HIeaves o$ ErassJ, a boo+ which he revised and rewrote all the rest o$ his li$e. 4he boo+ was ridiculed b" some poets and generall" ignored b" others, probabl" because his verse $orms were not traditional.

In his boo+ H4he >a+ing o$ the -residentJ, 13,5, 4heodore 6hite made some insight$ul observations about the television debates between Menned" and @i(on .He contended that the debates had to be anal")ed within the conte(t o$ the e(plosion in the $ield o$ the communications. During the previous debate, Americans had purchased television sets at a phenomenal rate. B" the evening o$ the debate, 00 percent o$ all American $amilies owned a television set, and a ver" large percentage turned into the debate. 4he $ormat was reall" less li+e a debate than li+e a press con$erence. 7ach candidate was allowed an opening statement o$ eight minutes, and then two and a hal$ minutes to respond to each 1uestion proposed b" a panel. 4here was no provision $or dialogue between the candidates.

In contrast, Menned" spo+e directl" to the television viewers, concentrating on creating a d"namic and appealing image in order to in$luence them. Iater Menned" claimed that the debate were the single most important $actor in the election. In 6hite!s view the debates did change the direction o$ the campaign. From research studies, Including Eallup -oll, it appeared that Menned" had gained at least 2 million votes as a result o$ the televised programs. 6hen "ou consider that Menned" won b" a little more than 155,555 votes, the debates had to have made the di$$erence.
