John Kennedy actually said...

"The heart of the question is whether all Americans are to be afforded equal rights and equal opportunities, whether we are going to treat our fellow Americans as we want to be treated."

"Now the time has come for this Nation to fulfill its promise."

"It ought to be possible, therefore, for American students of any color to attend any public institution they select without having to be backed up by troops."

"I want to express a warm welcome to all of you."
