John Kennedy actually said...

"I believe that our future can be bright."

"I am confident that in years to come our two countries will stand as one in safeguarding the greatest of all bonds between us, our common belief in a free and democratic way of life."

"It is with special pleasure, therefore, that we witness the assumption by this new nation of its sovereign place in the world community."

"In expressing the best wishes of my country, I speak for a people who cherish individual liberty and independence, and who have made great sacrifices so that these vital principles might endure."
