The correct option is A John F. Kennedy
The term New Frontier was used for the first time by Democratic presidential candidate John F. Kennedy. The phrase developed into a notion for his administration's domestic and foreign programs. As part of his new frontier policy, unemployment benefits were expanded, aid was provided to cities to improve housing and transportation, a water pollution control act was passed to protect the country's rivers and streams etc.
