I first watched this speech at the age of 12. I am still moved at the age of 72.
Great inaugural speech give by a great President
@@chadparsons2481 It’s such a shame that JFK died early. Maybe our nation would’ve changed for the better. Either that or Robert Kennedy should’ve been alive to guide our nation
Man you are one lucky man.
11pm, South Africa. My birthday is Jan 20. I listen to this, the one President who would have brought Russia to its knees. He did not die, he was murdered and so many years later 2024 , still no further information about who was responsible. When he stopped the Russians from further building the ability to destroy America, I was 16 years old. When he was murdered, I cried. Over the years I have built a library about him and the rest of the Kennedy family. I have visited the house where he was borne, I have visited the Kennedy Museum and library and to this day still admire the man and the President he was- a great man who could have done so much for World peace. Rest in peace.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
My mother who lives half way across the world still talks about JFK. That's the impact he he has had.
The famous President we ever had, not only in America but throughout the world it will never vanish the name KENNEDY, Instead it will be remembered, and remarkable in all parts of the world and to all mankind, all his struggle for the sake freedom, just and humane society must be adhered... My snappy salute to the strength and courageous act of his excellency Pres. JOHN FITZGERALD KENNEDY, for me HE IS A GREAT HERO...
It's just kind of weird how the 34th, 35th, 36th and 37th President of the United States were sat here altogether in this momentous occassion, of course no one knew at that time that LBJ would assume the Presidency in 1963 and Nixon would succeed him after a decade. I also read that President Truman and Gerald Ford attended JFK's inauguration which makes this, retroactively the largest get together of US Presidents.
Sixty years ago today. Powerful words that still ring true and capture the imagination just as they did on that day. How I wish we had people like this in politics that could properly lead us in this day and age. Wherever you might be, I hope you are resting easy, President Kennedy...
Ben Sasse of Nebraska is the best hope for americas best presidential choice for 2024!!!
Greater and wiser words were never spoken
Sixty years ago today, a national heartbreak. Our brightest and best was stolen from us.
The most loveable and fascinated President of the United States.
A great leader, a great statesman and one of the greatest Presidents of the United States of America, had to leave mankind suddenly and very early under extremely tragic circumstances, with a great number of unfinished task and unfulfilled visions and aspirations.
The last real President
He was terrible

Don't compare President Kennedy to this creep

@@CRA5759 Creepy Scoundrel Joe I'm out of my mind Biden
Is a Warmongering, neocon, corrupt Political leader
Biden is a racist crook and has been for decades. He is absolutely everything the left accused Trump of being. Trump was in the spotlight for 60 years, given awards and even recognized for helping the African American community, and never called a racist till he beat Hillary, its my turn, Clinton. Biden is as corrupt as they come, using his own son to grift money from China. He's as far from a devout Catholic as possible. He's now the pope of woke and he loves his rabid CRT, socialism supporting congregation.
After listening to this, there's no doubt that the Party of JFK is long gone. "Ask not what America will do for you, but what - together - we can do for the freedom of man."
One of JFK’s best: January 20, 1961.
Look at LBJ’s drunk ass
I'm here because of my module HAAGA

62 years today! Our last great President JFK. The world needs another JFK.
well now you have RFK lol
Gotta love Kennedy.
Compared to Biden, what a joke.
All of his successors are a joke TBH.

"A man may die, nations may rise and fall, but an idea lives on.” -JFK
This man did more to shape the culture, vision, and history of the United States in 2&1/2 years than most Presidents did in eight. A man's man, a legend among heroes. May his words and his legacy be unforgotten.

As an Irish Catholic, born in Cambridge mass and raised in Medford, Mass, he was and always will be royalty 🙏🍀💚
JOHN F. KENNEDY - "ASK NOT WHAT YOUR COUNTRY CAN DO FOR YOU - ASK WHAT YOU CAN DO FOR YOUR COUNTRY".
13:15 The most influential speech line in American history
From such heights we have descended...is there a way back...or must we wallow. In a day that seems devoid of values, what choice do we have but to stand up and climb again to reach integrity, decency, compassion and a passion for truth and vision.
The biggest issue is that the Socialists have invaded our Democratic party. Their absolute goal is to break down and divide America in order to take over. They are accomplishing this by convincing Democrats that they are one-and-the-same. This couldn't be further from the truth! They seek to divide us so far from the Republicans, that we hate each other. And they are succeeding. Not so long ago, we were all friends with the Republicans and worked together because our common goal was the betterment of our country. Now that the Socialists have taken over our party, they have highlighted on all the little things that make us different. They've put hate and mistrust in our hearts. We no longer embrace and hold onto the things we have in common with the Republicans. The problem is simple: our focus is on all the negative things. The solution is difficult, but also simple: We need to ignore the petty differences, and focus on the common goal of the betterment of our country. Not the world's betterment -- but our country's first. This is the only way we can move onto a better life for our grandchildren. We have to stand up and be the first to reach across that isle to ask what we have in common with the Conservative side. I do believe true Democrats will be surprised.
I'm afraid we will never see the likes of a president like him again. How far this country has fallen in leadership and dignity.
We can't give up Linda.
One of the most inspiring speeches of all time! Stirring, uplifting, and the right length - delivered by a master craftsman.
Just one question: I had only seen black-and-white prints of this. Was this an original colour print, or “colourized”?
When leadership was inspiring for the people, not the corporations
Speech of all time. One of the best inspiring talk.
President John Fitzgerald Kennedy said my fellow Americans what your country can do for you ask what you can do for your country is the greatest president speech of all time
just got here for a school assignment 😄😄😄
Then You must thank your school
Me too :)
Greatest speech of a president JOHN F KENNEDY
IN GOD WE TRUST¡¡
Still as relevant on today's inguration as it was 61 years ago today x
I totally agree
As a young Australian boy, I was captivated by JFK.
His policies and innovations like the Peace Corps have stood the test of time.
Bobby also made major contributions to all Americans.
And now Caroline follows in the family's proud tradition.
Truly powerful words. "Can we forge against these enemies..." and beyond that is kind of hard to remember with the delivery he gives.
now his speech is my assignment gosh
same
Same
Yeah that's why I'm listening to this. Fuck reading it😂
LMFAO same reason I'm here too
I'm actually watching this for inspiration. Don't need an assignment to do that
A magnificent speech - the words are so relevant today.
I'm in tears hearing JFK deliver this speech: tears for knowing how his presidency ended and tears for knowing we have had no true President since then.
Where have all the leaders gone ... long time passing .
They lie within ourselves. It's the elite shadow living government manipulators that are raping us of our unity, individuality, freedoms, capacities, capabilities, potential, creativity, imagination, health, intelligence, energy, frequency, spirit, strength, wisdom, etc. So that they can benefit themselves and enslave us mentally, spiritually, and physically. They don't benefit from the united, healthy, consistent, authentic, truthful, free, transcending, standing, individual warriors
Killed by the forces that have run the world since his death 😢
What an AMAZING, TRUE LOVE FOR ALL, EVERYONE LOVED, FREEDOMand CHANGE!!! What a shame, but... Took a desent loving man's life. Why, ONLY ONE THAT HAD HATE for his pure heart and love for not one but ALL! HUMAN BEING'S. I may have been in my mother's belly as she was pregnant at the time, that he was assassinated. Though, I know he was loved dearly. Not only by my mother, but by ALL!! COMPLETE COMPENSATION for not just one but ALL! Loved this man's heart, value's and ALL MAN KIND!
A speech that should not be forgotten
At time frame 12:20, LBJ is moving downwards to pick an index card up from the stage. At time frame 12:27, LBJ is taking his glasses out of his pocket. he then reads the index card and looks towards Eisenhower. at time frame 12:36 he is putting it into his coat pocket. what was so important on that paper he picked it up and saved it? odd indeed
I still can't believe they murdered him like that
Simply amazing.
Fue un buen presiente kennedy. 💯💯💯💯💯❤️❤️❤️❤️
God s work must truly by our own.
Timeless.
8:40 is one of my favorites
60 years ago today. Back when we had a Catholic president that was likable and knew what he was doing.

One can only imagine on how JFK would of done had he survived Dallas
Maybe, in a way, one important legacy of the Kennedy presidency is the continuing legacy of Star Trek --- even though it didn't appear until 1966. Torchbearers of the New Frontier.

If we had a president like this today I'd be less reluctant to help out my country of birth. Ig either way losing one loser like me for a little longer doesn't matter, ever.
Any politic I could bring back I would bring JFK back
I first encountered these words about 10 years ago, printed in my newly re-issued US passport. Powerful. I thought of these words today as we grapple with the question of what to do about Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The question on our collective minds is, "How far are we willing to go?". Are we going to bear ANY burden? Pay ANY cost? Suffer ANY hardship? to protect the liberal democratic aspirations of the Ukrainian people against the hostile overthrow of an authoritarian former Soviet KGB agent? What would Kennedy say if he were alive today? As in his time, we are again haunted by the specter of global nuclear annihilation. It seems only one man knows whether such a catastrophe will come to pass, and it is unclear whether he is actually in his right mind.
What I know for damn sure is, thank god trump didn't get re-elected. We may not be so fortunate next time. So much dumb in this country. Vast staggering amounts of stupid infesting every corner, mostly concentrated in the geographic middle areas. 70 million to be precise. In a very literal sense, they may be the end of us all. They have been trying to literally kill us for the past couple of years, bludgeoning us with their stupidity. And there's no sign that they're taking their foot off the stupidmobile gas pedal. If we are lucky, they will autoeugenics themselves into electoral oblivion. As far as I'm concerned, that would be a big win for both the world, and the nation.
What do YOU think or thought about USA's invasion of Afghanistan from 2001 till 2021? Has it ever occurred to you that a Power country has every right to clean up shit near it's borders?!?!
I agree but it is only going to get worse. It is easier to control stupid people than smart ones. John D. Rockefeller's dream came true, he wanted obedient workers and not critical thinkers. Most Americans today live in a Fantasyland.
One of the best and awesome presidents

How I Wish JFK was never Assassinated!
Does any Democrat talk like this anymore? If not why not?
Yes, they believe in alliances,science,cooperation with all,equality,sacrifice from all. I’ve certainly haven’t heard republicans talk about any of these issues, especially about helping the poor.
No, they are all about socialism and trying to destroy America. Democrats Today are not the Democrats in the beginning! When they removed God it went downhill!!
No
@@CRA5759 no they don't believe in equality for all. They believe, and are pushing, Marxist CRT ideology which whole base premise is that to create equity people must be treated unequally. The Democrats are no longer the party of JFK, and I would wager the only reason you haven't heard Republicans addressing these issues is because you only get your news from left-wing sources.
@@martykropf421 you realize democrats now are still the same democrats from JFK 😂
Tyler Mac Today the new State of Mexico
your nephew is going to be the next POTUS jack..GOD bless Robert Francis Kennedy Jr
Good words.
Amen amen 🙏🙏
Too bad that RFK, Jr. has lost the moral compass that his uncle clearly had as he defends Russia over Ukraine.
Manhatan trump pull option ok
Can any part of this text be used legally in a piece of music (10 seconds)?"
He was only 43 yrs old
🙂🙂
Can someone please explain me how to logically sustain the point that it is a good thing to believe that "the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state, but from the hand of God." (2:20)?
Aren't the laws that try to impose justice over nature's merciless survival of the fittest written by humans?
If the rights of man come from the state (government), they can be taken away by the state (dictators) as well. I think what President Kennedy is trying to say is that all humans have inherent rights simply because of their humanity, and the government can only enforce laws to protect the inherent (god given) rights humans already posses.
A wonder
Oath! Ohhrahh
Would you appear in a dream to let us know how the bullet could turn that way, just like Old Hamlet?

🇮🇹🗽They did the wrong thing and they both got it🇮🇹
Anyone know why he was assasinated?
Some say Illuminati and others say the Mafia. Also some may say Russia. I say The 👁
Are we allowed to know the facts? They have never been released to public knowledge. RFK Jr doesn't believe Sirhan Sirhan killed his father. So he was released. Yet his siblings are divided on it.
He was killed by the cia for being pro peace, there is a video explaining the assasination case. Theres a guy with a whiteboard on the thumbnail, its pretty good
He opposed Israel's nuclear program and tried to stop them developing nukes.

All these powerful speeches politicians make over decades are all written by writer's. It like a actor who Fans admire but the script was written by a team of writers
Except that Kennedy wrote his own inaugural address, along with his speechwriter, Ted Sorensen.
Not w/o serious imput fr the acual speaker. It's a multi people project most of the time. knock that chip off your shoulder.
Sorry, not a full version.
