JFK Inspired Nation 50 Years Ago

50 years ago today President John F. Kennedy was sworn into office. JFK’s Inaugural address was pressed into the memories of millions of American citizens…often in brief sound bites or through aging black and white photos. … His message of raw force and muscular defense seems odd today, juxtaposed against the current Democratic Administration. He alludes to nations that truly no longer are even in existence now. I wonder what nations will no longer be here 50 years hence … John Kennedy knows that truth today, for though he died a short 1,000 days from when he delivered this Inaugural Address, he is alive in eternity today and his message 50 years later , were he allowed to present it , would provide even more hope and even more kindness and even more brutal honesty than what he so eloquently spoke on January 20th, 1961/ Dennis Mansfield . More here .

Question: Would you rather have John F. Kennedy or Barack Obama serving as president today?
