His brother was would have been better

The world would probably never get over the fact that he died so suddenly and tragically. We lost him. Forever. Plus, we lost Oswald too. So we will never know what was in his mind. Had Oswald lived, the JFK assassination would hv taken a different direction. Or if only Mrs. Marina Oswald said Yes she will come with him bringing the children....

Back when the Democrat party still had dignity and put the American people first. A long time ago.

We had a different Media machine back then. There was still a guiding point, a light that people respected. Today money is king, made on "clicks" and Likes, driven by controversies and division.

His assassination is largely responsible for the reverence American's have for JFK. (This is not a criticism of JFK.)

that was amazing. Dare greatly...

Gooo Doll what are the other things??? what did he mean by that.

Why climb the highest mountain? Why fly the Atlantic? Why does Rice play Texas?

Do the other things lol

Love that family

thank you

Thanks

"... serve to organize and measure the BEST of our energies and skills." ... Without a doubt, THIS is the the most unassailable reasoning for space exploration. If not for manned space flight, a good many technological conveniences of today would have at least been delayed by decades, or would simply not exist.

THANK YOU

Thank you

I think Franklin used to read and often practice trying to write the sentences of some of the books better. He used that skill to insert some key words into Jefferson's like "self-evident" into the constitution when Jefferson asked him for his commentary.

He got to watch the launch of Apollo 8 and 11 from above.

He will smile with his heart. Gods Kingdom has prepared the most Beautiful High place for this man. Some day. 😉

he must have known something we dont

😢💔😔😢💔😔😔😢💔😔😢💔😔RIP

Blame the crooks in power now They killed him Not Lee Harvey Oswald Look up the documentary “Everything Is A Rich Man’s Trick”

no, the best given by anyone, not just a president, arguably of course but I believe if to be the best written speech, and the best given speech of all time

Matthew Mullins agreeded JFK best man that ever lived

Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address was actually the best by a US President, But this comes close. It's also one of the most inspirational.

President Regan Address to Nation on Challenger Disaster is better in my opinion

Matthew Mul

I am happy to meet you, I hope to know you better as we get along.

I get that.

Eighteen solid minutes of procrastination, right there.

I have to listen to this and take notes to study.

Elon Musk...

President Musk?

Too bad he can't...

What!!!! You mean Trump doesnt?

Brian Herrington exactly.

Sim.

Yes!

Now the elected officials have been responsible naming our country in the ground . Such polarization of both parties. I think the American people ; each state have an interview panel consisting of various types of people - an interview. That panel decides and holds the politician accountable. None of the Lobby crap either. Then only then will we have a President and Congress serving the people of this nation. They all get flilthy rich being a politician .

Noe Adame okay

He’d never recognize today’s Democrat Party, where demanding hard work is considered racist and mean.

@@hyliedoobius5114 Please!!! As if Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, or even Ronald Reagan would recognize the Republican party today. I just hope you live long enough to realize how bad the GOP (which I use to belong to) has become.

Hylie Doobius & Ron Gjerde I liked both of you comments because both parties are horrible.

@@rgjerde53 They won’t. Both parties have gone to shit tbh

This comment made my day

+Ramses van Wijk Probably Johnson, judging by his posture.

+Ramses van Wijk More likely someone who repeatedly expresses his disbelief in American exceptionalism. The current president comes to mind.

Probably those that for some unknown completely unprecedented reason still believe the moon landing or space program to be a hoax, or maybe they just did it due to the bad video quality completely ignoring the fact that it is such an old video and nobody can really do anything about that

i'd say obama maybe I HATE OBAMA KENNEDY WAS WAY BETTER THAN OBAMA

If you can't see that President Trump has save this country trillions of dollars from the deals he has made you haven't been paying attention.

@@jbmayretta Donald Trump is a bad president..you clearly don't know what you're saying.

SouthernChick shut up about that orange dotard.

SouthernChick You’re Chosen One declared Covid-19 a hoax and now 100,000+ Americans are dead. Meanwhile his wall still hasn’t been built and he’s showing his concern for poor and middle class Americans by giving billionaires like Jeff Bezos massive tax cuts. And NONE of your jobs have been brought back from China. Face it - you’ve been suckered and Trump’s turned your nation into an international laughingstock to boot.

@@siobhanofarrell4646 he never said covid was a hoax. stuck in the house watching the news all day i would have saw that one. ignoring the dum twitter fights he did a solid job, it was up to the governors to make the right plays(as it should be, local politics matter). i live in the "hot zone" and i watched cuomo fuck up by not doing the most obvious things(ie address the mta and protect the nursing homes). after hurricane sandy we should have been ready for an emergency but nope. local government should have been put in the spotlight during this event. places like california, texas and florida did pretty good but ny is 1/3 the deaths?(ny plus nj are counted together because so many people travel back and forth meaning that ny infected all of them).

I am happy to meet you, I hope to know you better as we get along.

Humanity's history. 5000 years from now, human-hybrid children living in far off moons and planets will watch this video as part of their human history class.

No, but I'm quite sure he had the best seat in the house. God Bless, Mr. President.

@@Shon-hs3ft Oswald was the trigger man but the force behind the killing of President Kennedy is the true culprit. Karma will get them one way or the other.

The promise of a president brutally killed in office could not be ignored, that is probably the reason the goal was reached.

To be outlived by one's vision is probably the greatest achievement a man can get. Say about Oswald what you will, but his actions didn't stop Kennedy's legacy, but rather increased mankinds determination to conquer that final frontier of space. In a way, I have to thank him. I don't think I'd be studying spacecraft engineering right now without this bloody communist trying to kill not only Kennedy himself, but also all that he stood for.

I really hope he is at peace 💔

Close to Reagan and FDR

I rate him our 3rd best.

Pony Express Reagan isn’t a great president

Kylian Mbappé Don’t start a “your favorite president isn’t a good president” argument. American presidents can be as troublesome as saying “your candidate is a bad candidate.” People will love or hate every president. ‘I love Lincoln for his abolitionist policy’ ‘I hate Lincoln for his abuse and extension of the power of the executive during his terms.’ ‘I love FDR because he successfully navigated the USA through WW2.’ ‘I hate FDR because he told the US that he would send no young Americans to die in Europe, yet 400,000 never returned to America.’ You can’t argue the best presidents because it is still politics and it therefore depends on what people value.

That’s good

Nothing more can be said, except that was Great!

It was not because his greatness, but it the fact that he was a humble man that you cannot help but admire his speech. You cannot fake that.

the home run was hit by Teddy Sorenson, his speech-writer

@@essessessesq this specific speech? I never found evidence of that. Sorensen was the director of comms but there were many speech writers.

@@jimmy2k4o i admit that i am just assuming Soreneson wrote THIS speech, but i do that because we know that Teddy Sorenson wrote all of JFK's "major" speeches, and also wrote JFK's book "Profiles in Courage" for which JFK accepted a prize....yes, most other politicians also have writers.....Nixon, though, wrote all his own books,,,,he also wrote the first and the final drafts of his major speeches,,,,his aides Pat Buchanan and Ray Price polished up the other drafts but Nixon reserved the final say.

@@essessessesq nope, Ted was simply an editor and assistant, the major and important ideas of the speech were the ones Kennedy wished to express. And then his assistants and friends would polish it up

@@alfredfreedomjones5105 That might be correct, but his own associates [and Seymour Hersch in his books] have revealed enough about Kennedy's "presonal activities" to show that he had little free time available for research and writing of books and speeches. I wish it were otherwise.

in 2 years, he did well. Just imagine what he could've done in 4, let alone 8

he had a great speechwriter, Ted Sorenson and few others working with him

Yes true... Ted Sorensen also need more credits...

Nonsense. He was one of the most dishonest men ever to sit in the Oval Office

You guys are ridiculous. He was just as honest as every other president. The only difference was that he was a good speaker.

@@tidefalcon1631 lol wrong.

@@stanshaud6168 you'd be surprised at how many affairs he's had. If that's not dishonesty to his family idk what is.

And one that didn’t back down from Russia as a young President.

@Julia Shapiro There’s a way but I’m pretty sure it’s illegal to suggest any more info

@@osdever wym

@Jack der Hauptsturmführer Nah death

Respect!

The more I learn the more I know that I know nothing.

America needs a Lincoln, Roosevelt, or Kennedy. It is in the nation's best interest to elect a man who unifies us under commonality.

Maybe... by making a clone ?

There's no one like JFK.

Bernie Sanders. Is continuing his agenda.

Bernard Sanders is the only one who might fit that bill, an actual politician who knows what the people actually need and will represent those needs.

I am happy to meet you, I hope to know you better as we get along.

Love how he just slid that in there.

I was a boy if 13 on that day yet I remember JFK's presidency as if it never ended. "Johnny, we hardly knew ye." I now am 69. I hope you forever will be remembered for you were truly Great!

RIP John F Kennedy he died so young he loved his nation and people

Damien Baken lfwitch la

I had watched the movie “Wing Commander” and heard this speech in the opening credits. Always loved this part

That's such an amazing quote

Flavius Todorius THE GREAT AMERICAN PRESIDENT J F KENNEDY WANTED THE AMERICANS TO KNOW THE UNKNOWN... BECAUSE HE DIDN'T WANT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE BE IGNORANT...WHY IS THE TRUTH FROM NIBIRU BEEN KEPT IN SECRECY?

Very much agreed! Best of luck in Moscow pal and greetings from Austin, Texas!

Very well said!

I know what happened to the Republican party. They have become enablers of one of the most despicable politicians to ever occupy the White House. The Republicans have lost their spine, betrayed the Constitution, and possibly accepted bribes from Russian.

@@Patricia-zt8ubHow exactly have the Republican's betrayed the Constitution? The democrat party as of late seems hellbent on destroying the United States.

Patricia Manzi You are sounding like a far left radical dumbass

If JFK were around today Republicans would be calling him an open borders commie socialist for increasing spending on welfare programs and increasing the immigration rate of Mexicans and other latin-americans while decreasing the amount of white europeans.

The two parties, Republicans and Democrats, tended to sit much closer to each other in the 60s than they did towards the far end of their side of the spectrum. This led to great cooperation projects like the Space Race because going too radical meant either 'turning Grey (fascist)' or 'turning Red (communist)' and obviously neither of those would be helpful for a political career during the Cold War. The two parties really began to diverge during and after Reagan because of the same forces that got Reagan elected also began drawing the Republican party out towards its radical wing. The Democratic party then just followed the pressure pulling it towards its own radical end. This process then got doubly reinforced after the Tea Party movement in the 2010s and here we are. Two parties hellbent on destroying the other, perpetually locked into a stalemate with 49% of the vote and completely unable to agree. JFK, if he were around today, probably would not *have* a party because they've both moved so far from where they started in 1960.

SJWs

I know what you mean James. These racist Democrats hate white men let me JFK and preach just the opposite of what JFK preached. To all the racist liberal democrats running today it's what can your country do for you

WHAT OTHER THINGS!!!! JOHN!!!!

WHAT OTHER THINGS!

@@whatsthemeaningofthisshit9495 TELL US JOHN !!

Good question, why was he so vague about the other future plan and trivialize the nature of this project by naming it :The Other Thing?

I think he might be referring to the planned human spaceflight to Mars. And other things like building a permanent space station like the ISS today. JFK's speech is fully centered on space exploration and innovation so I give that educated guess of assumption.
