  • JFK - How John F. Kennedy Became President of the United States | History Documentary
    Watch 'Robert F. Kennedy - America's Lost President' here: • Robert F. Kennedy - Am...
    The life of John F. Kennedy is so often defined by his death. His assassination in November 1963 came to be seen as a turning point for America, a shift from an age of innocence and hope to one of violence and change. JFK himself was transformed from man into legend.
    But that reading of history can disguise the fascinating and contradictory man behind the myth. As we celebrate the centenary of JFK’s birth, this new programme explores the making of a president. JFK’s life inside the Kennedy dynasty. His travels through Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy. Fighting the Japanese in WWII including swimming for survival to a tropical island. His many different illnesses often hidden from the public. His glamorous marriage to Jackie and his journey to become Senator and finally the run for The White House

    As we celebrate the centenary of JFK's birth, this documentary explores the path of a president. JFK's life inside the Kennedy dynasty. His travels through Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy. Fighting the Japanese in WWIl, swimming for survival to a tropical island. His many illnesses - hidden from the public. His marriage to Jackie and his journey from Senator to President of the United States. Camelot American-style.

    I was 15 when he died in Dallas, sixty years later, he’s still moving my life forward fueled by his intellect, his inspiration, his insights and his imagination of who I could become and what my life could be.
    Everything he represented drives me to realize who I am supposed to be.
    I loved him.

    Robert Kennedy is the fundamental salvation of forgotten American freedoms. We believe in you! We see in you a lost past, an honest present and a prosperous future for the whole country! And he is an honest patriot. This time, the population is ready, but for choice with the same sincere and reasonable direction, they will receive more honest trust and sponsorship.

    Learning by books and research self-guided.... that's what I would have liked.
    School sucked. (why: bullies, schedules, hierarchy, competition, etc... dont mix well with me).
    The rigid expectation to attend school leaves some of us without better lives for ourselves.
    I heard somewhere, Lincoln was book-educated too, Abe had only 500 hours of school.

    I was twelve when he was murdered.
    Forty years later in my dental office an old lady who was an election judge in Chicago for the 1960 election told me a very interesting story. She has since passed on so there is no one to cooberate her story.
    She said to me “ Doc, I knew your grand father. And I know that he voted for Jack Kennedy. “
    The only problem with this was that my grand father had died a year before the election. My grandfather was also a life long Republican.
    Like the original mayor, Daley, one said, “in Chicago we vote early and we vote often. “
