Political Quotes

“this Saturday, November 22, will mark 62 years since we lost a President of the United States, a person who gave so much to his Nation, an individual who was taken from us in the summer of his years. His daughter, Caroline, back in 2017 gave us these buttons, pins, that I proudly wear. It is an image of President John Fitzgerald Kennedy. President Kennedy epitomized placing service above self. He was a national hero and a leader who had the grace, the dignity, the wit, the intelligence, and the love of his Nation and mankind. That past year we also lost someone by the name of Connie Francis who sang a song at the time called 'In the Summer of His Years.' In that song, she wrote: A young man rode with his head held high Under the Texas sun And no one guessed that a man so blessed Would perish by the gun... Yes, the heart of the world weighs heavy With the helplessness of tears For the man cut down in a Texas town In the summer of his years.”
