John Fitzgerald 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.
Lack of administration action on widespread unemployment will be a major issue in my campaign.
I am delighted that Governor Collins has accepted this very important task in our national campaign.
I think we are going to have to meet the problems we face here at home if we are going to successfully convey an image of vitality and strength abroad
I want to express my thanks to all of you for turning out in this beautiful weather.
I run for the office of the Presidency in the most difficult time in the life of our country, in many ways the most difficult in a hundred years.
The record of the Republican Party is written on the bills that never become law, on the things we failed to do.
If it is going to move in the direction of freedom, if it is going to move in the direction of the things which we value, then the United States has to lead.
I can assure you that while I do not promise an easy future, I can promise you that the United States will move again.
We say we can do better because we believe that this country has unlimited resources, because we believe it has unlimited energy, and because we believe it has an unlimited potential.
In the 1960's we need a whole new concept of resource development, so vast, so complex, and so essential are our natural resources that they cannot be parceled out piecemeal.
I think it would be most useful to establish for the Office of the President himself a Council of Resource and Conservation Advisers to survey the whole scope of our natural resources so that we can, as a country, not merely as a basin…
I can assure you that this is a young and vital country, but what we do here in our own country affects the security of the United States around the world.
We are very fortunate to have Congressman John Moss working with Governor Collins on this project.
Today, in a closely knit tumultuous world, the key to the future lies in water.
I want to make it clear that if we are successful in this election, we are going to reverse the policy of no new starts, and move ahead to make sure that those who follow in our trail have the same advantages that we have.
