John Kennedy actually said...

"So I say on the second anniversary, we have a long, long way to go, and in fact in some ways the road seems longer than it was when the journey started."

"We want to express a very warm welcome to you."

"So we say, thank you, Admiral, for what you have done in the past, an expression of appreciation for your willingness to assume new responsibilities for your country."

"The United States has really gotten two for one in this case--Mrs. Anderson."
