John Kennedy actually said...

"Economic development assistance can no longer be subordinated to, or viewed simply as a convenient tool for meeting, short-run political objectives."

"Real progress in economic development cannot be achieved by annual, short-term dispensations of aid and uncertainty as to future intentions."

"Each of these approaches is needed if the goals of economic growth and stability are to be reached."

"I have suggested a great national effort in the field of space for the American people."
