John Fitzgerald Kennedy was the 35th President of the USA and served at that position only for three years as at the end of the third year he was assassinated in Texas. Even though his presidential term was not long, it was significant, mostly with the strong opposition against the USSR (in a person of its Prime Minister of that time, Nikita Khrushchev). President Kennedy’s name is associated with the invasion of the Bay of Pigs, the Cuban Missile Crisis, the building of the Berlin Wall. Also, initiating the Project Apollo, establishment of the Peace Corps, the Nuclear Test Ban Treaty, and of course he was successful in preventing the Nuclear War during the Cuban Missile Crisis. From my point of view, although the 35th President of the US made many mistakes, he was successful in this position and left a significant track in the history of the USA.
According to Kennedy’s biography, “despite his father 's constant reprimands, young Kennedy was a poor student and a mischievous boy”. His father even wrote to John in attempt of encouraging the son: “If I did not really feel you had the goods I would be most charitable in my attitude toward your failings ... I am not expecting too much, and I will not be disappointed if you do not turn out to be a real genius, but I think you can be a really worthwhile citizen with good judgment and understanding”. However, young John
John F. Kennedy’s presidency is questionable for some, but I believe that his reign was a success. The man had visions that shaped the world today, from the space race to civil rights movements, JFK has paved the way for the success of America. He inspired and lead the country to the best of his ability, which was very well. Before his assassination took place Kennedy improved the world, and still leaves his mark on history through his actions.
John F. Kennedy is the 35th president of United state of America, at mean while the America was undergoing a time of conflict between the Soviet Union. The world was separate to two parties. The Soviet Union and the USA both showed their power to the world. At same time the JFK held an Inaugural Address to the all citizen of the worlds.
John F. Kennedy was the 35th president of the United States of America. His presidency started in January of 1961 till his assassination in November of 1963. Some people say he was inexperienced and too young and they didn't like the way he ran America. But I think he put a lot of effort into trying to keep the world from not killing each other.
President Kennedy is remembered as a leader and statesman who dreamed big and offered a bold vision for the future. Although his presidency was tragically cut short to just a thousand day. His ideas live on through signature programs like the Peace Corps and living memorials like the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C. His words and actions have inspired generations of Americans to get involved in public service and become active and engaged citizens. JFK called on Americans to think about the challenges we face as a nation and what kind of a country we want to build. Any elected official my generation probably did and will always look at JFK as the sort of leader, as to why we might have decided to get involved in politics.
Both Harvard-educated men and born into a wealthy, ambitious family, Robert and John Kennedy were influenced by their father to become involved in politics and managed to do that very successfully
John Fitzgerald Kennedy, also known as JFK, was the 35th president of the United States and the youngest person ever to be elected president. He was also the first Roman Catholic president and the first president to be born in the 20th century. Young people especially liked him. No other president was so popular. Kennedy was assassinated before he completed his third year as president; therefore, his achievements were limited. Nevertheless, his influence was worldwide, and his handling of the Cuban Missile Crisis may have prevented war. The thirteen days Kennedy spent fighting for the safety of this country back in mid-October of 1962, were probably one of the most difficult times faced by Kennedy during his presidency.
John F. Kennedy was the 35th president of the United States of America. He was young, in fact the youngest president the U.S has had, and Democratic. John was born into a wealthy family and had many privileges, for example he went to good schools, because his family had the money. He graduated from Harvard in 1940 and then fought in World war two. During the war he was the captain of a torpedo boat. John came home a hero after he saved many lives when a
John F. Kennedy was one of the most influential presidents ever; The decisions he made during the Cold War evaded the chance of a nuclear holocaust during his presidency. His had to make many life changing choices during his presidency. Many of them could have extreme impacts on the public 's opinion of him, the American economy would be affected. And the war with the Soviets was extremely costly to create new technology to protect ourselves. John F. Kennedy influence on the American people was profound, and his decisive actions changed history during the Cold War.
President John F. Kennedy once said “The path we have chosen for the present is full of hazards, as all paths are. The cost of freedom is always high, but Americans have always paid it. And one path we shall never choose, and that is the path of surrender, or submission” . Whether this statement was meant to describe the circumstances of the Cold War, or to display reasons for the use of the atomic bomb, these simple words brought understanding to the American people. That is, until the assassination of President JFK, himself. His death brought a widespread cloud of confusion to the nation. As people sought justice for this crime, many critical things were overlooked. The investigation of Kennedy’s assassination was riddled with mistakes
The first Roman Catholic president, John F. Kennedy, fought through many hardships. Becoming the president at the age of 43, he went through many difficult trials to get that role due to his religion and health. Although he died early, he still managed to go beyond his presidential duties and accomplished a lot during his short term.
In Ernest Hemingway’s short story “A Soldiers’ Home”, he highlights his hardship of readjusting back home from World War I through the main character Harold Krebs proving that after a war there is a loss of self-identity. Ernest Hemingway, a past war veteran, manifests his own struggles of coming back home through Harold Krebs’ intense conversation with his mom. Their conversation escalates when his mom asks him, “Don’t you love your mother dear boy?” and he shockingly responds with “No...I don't love anybody.” A son always tells his mother that he loves her, but with Krebs, it was different because he was scarred from the war.
When a president is able to effectively use the power of rhetoric to move citizens to aspire to achieve the seemingly impossible, this president is able to transcend the limitations of the executive office itself. President John F Kennedy was masterful at this skill and the words he spoke and the dreams he invited us to share are as powerful today as they ever were. Our cultural memory of John F. Kennedy was shaped within a very narrow time frame. Kennedy, born in 1917, was only forty-six years old, when he was assassinated. He had served less than three years as president of the United States at the time of his death (Reader 's Companion to American History, 1991). He served during arguably the most turbulent time in American, and indeed world, history. The disparity between the immensity of Kennedy’s rhetoric and the actual accomplishments of his administration is a testament to the potential power that rhetoric can have. (rewrite)
The 35th President of the United States of America, John F. Kennedy, was an amazing man. John was a President that served in our countries military, funded the program of N.A.S.A, and put bills into congress to desegregate schools and public places. From the second oldest child born in Boston, Massachusetts, to the president that succeeded in giving all Americans the rights they deserved, he truly was amazing. His legacy still impacts people today.
The date was January 20, 1961, it was brutally cold, the highest temperature at 20 degrees Fahrenheit, and there were over 20,000 people gathered to observe one of the most iconic speeches in U.S. HISTORY. John F. Kennedy now President Kennedy of the United States of America stepped up to the podium ready to address the nation as the youngest ever to be elected. He came into office at height of the Cold War, and the one thing on people 's minds was the fear of a nuclear war occurring and communism spreading. As he addressed the nation he successfully reassured Americans that they made the right choice in electing him, emphasized his determination to work for freedom and human rights and most importantly he inspired Americans and the whole world to rise to greatness.
