John Kennedy
The Public Record
John Fitzgerald Kennedy was the 35th President of the United States, serving from January 20, 1961, until his assassination on November 22, 1963. A member of the Democratic Party, he was born in Massachusetts and is often remembered for his leadership during the Cuban Missile Crisis, which brought the world to the brink of nuclear war. Kennedy also established the Peace Corps, promoting international service and cooperation, and he advocated for civil rights, laying the groundwork for future legislation in this area.
In my judgment this renewed authorization is necessary to permit prompt and effective responses, as necessary, to challenges which may be presented in any part of the free world
I hope that the Congress will give its prompt support to this authorization, as it did, so effectively, a year ago
I urge all interested citizens and all civic and educational organizations to participate in this voter registration campaign
I know the people of Iran under your leadership will rise above this tragedy as well.
I have been profoundly shocked to learn of the great natural catastrophe which has struck Iran.
I am convinced that an immediate and intensive nationwide voter registration campaign could substantially reduce the number of qualified citizens
The American Government and people are prepared to help in this effort.
each qualified citizen has not only a right to vote but also a civic obligation and responsibility to do so
The hearts of the American people go out to those who have lost families or friends or seen their homes destroyed.
