John Kennedy actually said...

"It is a great pleasure to participate once again in this inauguration of the new delegation."

"I am confident that this year, as in the past, we will break new ground in the effort to provide for a more peaceful world."

"So we are glad to welcome them all here and to express appreciation to Members of Congress who are serving and to the other American citizens who are participating in this national effort."

"I think that this country has based great hopes in the United Nations since 1945."
