Jfk, By John Fitzgerald Kennedy

John F. Kennedy was sworn in as the 35th president of the United States of America on January 20, 1961. He was only 43 when he was sworn into office, the youngest president ever elected. Kennedy ran against Richard Nixon, the Republican nominated candidate. Nixon made it a large point in mudslinging during the presidential campaign to point out Kennedy's young age. Kennedy had to prove, not only to Nixon, but the rest of the country, that he was capable of being the commander in chief of one of the most powerful nations. His first spoken words after being sworn in were extremely influential. In JFK’s inaugural speech he addresses more than just his fellow Americans, but citizens of the world. He outlines the changing tensions of the world and how it is in the hands of the people to keep things at peace. Kennedy states, “The torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans…” (1), a bold and powerful statement, showing his confidence to lead. His inauguration was supposed to set a spark of renewal and change. JFK wanted to take advantage of this spark and call Americans to action, unite them and the rest of the world, as one group of people.

In 1961 John F Kennedy gave the Inaugural Address speech. He was young and very smart. The speech was given in Washington D.C. The speech was about the cold war between the U.S. the Soviet Union.

John Fitzgerald Kennedy was the 35th president of the United States of America, serving from 1961 until he was assassinated in 1963. He was the only president to have won a Pulitzer Prize. During the Cold War, hope amongst Americans was shaken in fear of nuclear warfare. Kennedy wanted to raise hope in America and wanted Americans to have faith in him as president. John F. Kennedy successfully uses the rhetorical devices ethos, logos, pathos, and Kairos in his inaugural address to bring out patriotism amongst the American people during the peak of the Cold War.

A. Support for #3: January 20, 1961 John Fitzgerald Kennedy was inaugurated into office and became President Kennedy our nation’s 35th President. It was in his inaugural address where he spoke of the needs of the citizens of America to be active and famously stated, “Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country” (Dallek).

It was inaugural day in Austin on January 16, 1973. It was cold, windy, and cloudy, but for Janey and Dolph Briscoe, the weather was irrelevant. In their minds it was a beautiful and glorious day. It began with a prayer before breakfast featuring Tom Landry. He was the head coach of the Dallas Cowboys. This was the guy who delivered an inspirational talk that set the moral tone for the remainder of the inauguration. William P. "Bill" Hobby Jr. was

Abraham Lincoln once stated in his House Divided speech, “A house divided against itself cannot stand.” Lincoln believes that there is no such thing as a balance between free and slave states and that the two contradictory governments are bound to fall. That describes the conflict that occurs in the fictional novel, The Killer Angels, a civil war story between the Union and Confederate states fighting to achieve the government they yearn for.

JFK was elected in 1961, becoming the 35th president of the United States. JFK was the first Irish-Catholic president and, in 1961, he began his short legacy as the greatest president of the United States. On January 20, 1961, JFK spoke what is debatably the most memorable, famous, and empowering inaugural address. He famously told the American citizens, "Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country.” (The American Presidency Project.

People often become angry at themselves when they are unable to do something; this leads to frustration and then a choice they have to make: giving up or stubbornly continuing it. Malcolm X was also in a situation like that during his time in prison. He never finished his education in reading or writing and tried to learn how to read and write which it was hard for him, but he still continue to learn to those skills. In Malcolm X’s “Learning to Read”, despite being a prisoner, he decides to learn how to read and write making use of his time in prison in order to learn more about the world than continuing to be ignorant.

In the fall of 1963 Kennedy’s Administration was preparing campaigns for the election of 1964 in hopes of bringing the fragile Texas Democratic Party closer. The Kennedys headed to Dallas on the morning of November 22, 1963 to attend a scheduled luncheon. On that tragic day President Kennedy was assassinated in a senseless act of violence. Within the next few hours, Vice President Lyndon Johnson was sworn in as president. In the midst of a grieving country, he was given the duty of handling a transition in leadership and presenting an acceptance speech before Congress. LBJ gave his acceptance speech of the U.S. presidency in front of Congress just five short days after John F. Kennedy had been assassinated. Expectations were high but then

The whole country was shocked and disheveled by the news and the director of the FBI, J. Edgar Hoover, was on a search. The investigation of the assassination of JFK caused panic to American citizens as they were looking for someone to take the blame. Though America had been through three other previous presidential assassinations, the United States has never experienced an event like this before. Immediately after the president was pronounced dead, he was taken to Air Force One in a casket to be buried back in Washington D.C. On the plane, the now widowed Jackie Kennedy, still covered in her blood stained outfit, was standing next to the new President of the United States and his wife, Lady Bird. In the book, The Kennedy Assasination--24 Hours After : Lyndon B. Johnson 's Pivotal First Day As President , author Steven M. Gillon wrote, “At 2:40pm just a little more than two hours after the shots were fired, Judge Hughes, her voice shaking and hands trembling, asked Johnson to recite the oath” , as former Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson had officially became the 36th President of the United States (pg.139).

The 1960’s was a time when the world was facing the Cold War and America was facing the Civil Rights Movement. On January 20, 1961, at the age of 43, John Fitzgerald Kennedy was sworn into office as the 35th President of the United States. As the youngest president of the United States, Kennedy needed to prove to the American citizens that he was a great leader and that they did the right thing to elect him. (History.com) The night before JFK’s inaugural it snowed so hard that many people found it difficult to attend the inauguration, however more than twenty thousand people were in attendance. (Baergen) During the Inauguration, President Kennedy gave his most famous speech, The Inaugural Address, which evoked a sense of unity into the American citizens and gave them a sense of confidence in their young leader, which was gravely needed at that moment. Kennedy’s prerogative was to be an outstanding leader; and so he was, by addressing social inequality and poverty, stating the need to end the threat of nuclear destruction, and yearning for peace, whilst having a brave and powerful demeanor.

The United States of America is, “a nation of immigrants” as John F. Kennedy called it. Apart from the Native American ancestry, all others trace their culture back to somewhere else (Soerens, M. 2013). In my opinion, the U.S has increasing rate of immigrants, than any other country. It is also successful in providing facilities like education, employment and various career opportunities for global immigrants even today.

In the Corner Miss Ella dedicates her time and energy to running the Martin Luther King Jr. Recreation Center. She is able to make connections with children of all ages, ranging as old as high school. The children who come are able to participate in productive after school activities, rather than spending their time on the Corner. Ultimately, Miss Ella feels that by providing opportunities at the recreation center, she is able to keep kids from being involved in the Corner, for as long as possible. While her efforts are genuine and work to some extent, the center itself is not merely enough to keep the wild-hearted boys of the C.M.B. crew off the streets. The children of the Corner lack motivation to go to school, finding gallivanting on the streets and stirring up trouble to be much more enticing. If a preventative program was implemented that focused on both prevention and the promotion of positive behaviors, such as completing high school, the potential benefits to society could include a few less criminals on the streets or tangled up in the justice system.
