- On January 20, 1961, President John F. Kennedy was sworn into office and delivered one of the most famous inaugural addresses in U.S. history with the line "Ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country."
Many presidents have called me a fellow American. This one sounded like he meant it.
Along with FDR,and Eisenhower
Trump does too!
@@bryanscott9770 but he's not sincere
@@kyleshiflet9952 fair enough.
Hello
“My fellow citizens of the world. Ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do, for the freedom of man.” -JFK
Ask not what your government can do for you but what you can do for your government.
Can’t say I agree with either of those sentiments. They wouldn’t be found in the constitution of liberty.
@@roughhabit9085 its about helping your own community of your own volition. the government is not making you do anything.
@@roughhabit9085 my best friend is a YAL and I just can't agree with him. most libertarians point of views are so selfish and self serving. a nation cannot be great, unless the nation is united of it's own volition. poor people, rich people are extremely selfish today, taking only seeking only to take advantage of the system economically. California is disgusting... so is Florida.
@@roughhabit9085 so I feel jfk is right here in reminding our people to think more about than just themselves
its actually by pericles
I legitimately get chills when I listen to this speech. No one will ever be quite like him… they can burn the textbooks, destroy the schools, taint the writings. But I will always remember these words, and this man. A man that became the force that propelled us forward, not just the USA but the world. I will never, ever forget you John Fitzgerald Kennedy
Lies again? Rise Of Titans Right Thing
Amen
Amen
JFK is a true cosmopoliticist.
JFk says: My Fellow Americans ASK NOT WHAT YOUR COUNTRY CAN DO FOR YOU ASK WHAT YOU CAN DO FOR YOUR COUNTRY
+Seth The King (TheMineplexKing) It can't be more truthful than that. I agree.
Bernie says "ask not what you can do for your country, ask what your country can do for you"
Trump says: Ask not what you can do for your country, ask what you can do for Trump.
Warax12 This made me cackle lol 🤣🤣🤣
Megadeth: Don't ask what you can do for your country. Ask what your country can do for you.
My two most favorite presidents, Abe Lincoln and JFK
Clone high watch it
They got coincidences with each other
What about FDR
Hey that's racist dotcha know
How bout Obama
In life he was a highly charismatic and popular politician.
In death, he became an almost sacred figure of universal admiration and respect among the American political classes
Happy 100th birthday, President Kennedy.
He is 100 years old? JK
@@mindofkyle9960 Anniversary
Since it’s the beginning of 2021, Happy late 103rd birthday🎂President Kennedy. You truly are my favorite!
@@hawksfan8870 he’s about to turn 104 in less than a month
@@UnitedStates17 hi
Every time I think about responsability, about accountability, this speech comes in my mind
That one like “ask not what your country can do for you , ask what you can do for your country” really is extremely powerful.
Ask Not what your country can do for you, But What you can do for your country.
55 years later, Give me free stuff! Free college! lol
Almost 56 years later Americanism, not globalism will be our credo
Ayrton Greenwood last time you hear that from a Democrats mouth
Ask not what america for you but what together we can do for the freedom of man
that's what I remember, too. there were NOT two "ask" in his statement. Hello, Mandela Effect-ian!
"Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country." RIP on 11.22.1963 anniversary
A Sonic quote used correctly.
“Ask not what others can do for you, but ask what can you do for others.”
JFK forever in our hearts
The difference between JFK and the presidents of our new generation is night and day. What a leader he is, it ignites the patriotism and love for this country that has been long extinguished
His stellar oratory gives me goosebumps of noble, righteous American Patriotism and world leadership of peace that is hard to find nowadays.
0:54 "Ask Not What Your Country Can Do For You" JFK speech
Why are you happy about that phrase? That is 100% wrong, your country should work for you, you pay their salary, not the other way around. Thats why people go overseas and get killed, because of shitty brainwash like this.
what an inspiring speech ... i always remember the letters ... a good words of legacy ... there must be somebody as great as you Sir ...
If Kennedy saw today's democrat party he'd flip his shit
Grant Marks you could say the same for Reagan and the douchebag GOP who are afraid to stand up to the Russian Pricks
Tremendous. Believe me. your a bitch regan helped speed up the fall of the soviet union while also making our army bigger
Also that time he granted amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants.
lipton green tea he also put america into debt
Well they're not real Democrats
Legend. Respected around the world.
The best American President ever I'm not even American but my grandpa was in America when he was the President whenever he used to talk to about him his eyes shed a tear :(
Happy Birthday Mr. Kennedy. One of the best speeches.
Will light this Country and all who serve it.
Great Kennedy :)
hugs from your friend country, Brazil
Kennedy's light can't never be destroyed, I'll give my life to preserve it.
“And so my fellow Americans, ask not what you’re country can do for you. Ask not what you can do for your country.” -JFK
The greatest line ever spoken by a US president.
most lovely words from the loveliest president ever. respect and love.
RIP.
this speech is the opening part for my competition dance 🤞
We need more presidents like this. That say what they mean and strive to get there. Not lie like the Clinton's and Bush's. Even Obama deceived everyone into believing he was going to unite us but instead he divided us. Really wish we had a JFK in my generation.
I think we may have a new JFK in the White House right now. Look at our president constantly exposing the corrupt Washington swamp for the frauds they are.
@@Megacooltommydee💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
JFK RFK RFK jr Vivek Rama swamy Donald trump is what we need
@@FUEEGFN your mind is bad brother😢 and you are altogether twisted, much like the man that you so foolishly and dangerously follow. Heaven help Us all, that's what another famous person said Stevie Wonder. Oh you remember him don't you? Stevie's still around. I was there with JFK, as for Obama I was there for him also. He inspires the same energy but on the day he entered office you Republican mad Men said that they hoped that he would fail. They showed scorched Earth resistance and tore down everything that he built up so brother get your facts straight before you speak. One cannot unite the people who are determined to refuse what he was trying to give them. Obama did not divide you Trump will still skin divided you. But then Trump was there to tell you to say that. What foods you mortals be so very purposely
As a Republican born in the mid 1990s, I never got the opportunity to witness the Kennedy administration. However, from studying it, I found that I do not agree with many of his policies, but I do greatly respect him for being such a good leader and figurehead for this country. I do think that he had better thought than our current president and I wish Mr. Obama would study a thing or two from Mr. Kennedy. President Kennedy would be rolling over in his grave right now if he could see what President Obama is doing to our great nation. Even though I would not be voting for him, I would be happy if there was another president from the Democratic Party as enthusiastic and smart as the late John Fitzgerald Kennedy.
+BGerbs66 - I feel the same way about Reagan, as you do about JFK I think. But you seem to think that despite being very young, you already know more about the world, than someone with far more experience. Who taught you that arrogance ?
Sunset Blue Where do you see arrogance? And no, I know that I have much to learn about what goes on in the world. I can just make decisions on what I have studied and I love studying history.
How about the current Republican President?
JP Manning One of the best President the U.S has had (Up there with Lincoln, JFK, and G.W.)
@@jpmanning2966 current what? President who? The oompa loompa in office now? Nah, I'll take GW Bush over that nutcase
“Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.”
Well over half a century later and JFKs words are completely lost in modern America. Everyone wants the government to do everything for them.
Then what's the government for?
short and sweet? i think short but iconic
This Inaugural speech is among the greatest ever. Fast forward 55 years to Donald Trump's Inaugural speech and you have to wonder, what went wrong?
A true American! Where have they all gone? If a man or woman like him were to run for president I would 100% vote for them.
A "true American" by whose definition?
my favourite words from jfk
"ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country."
"my fellow citizens of the world, ask not what america will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man."
- John Fitzgerald Kennedy
On May 29th, 1917, John Fitzgerald Kennedy the 35th President of the United States was born. Though his presidency was cut short, he is regardless one of the most important presidents in American history. Though I wasn’t alive to witness it, this is how a leader acts.

John Fitzgerarl Kennedy FOR EVER...
“Ask not what your country can do for you
Ask what you can do for your country.”
It’s basically saying don’t ask what your government should do for you, ask what you can do for your government
Hearing this great speech again makes me long for sanity to once again be the center of our politics. No more lawless, immoral name-calling and spreading of conspiracy theories. Elected officials actually doing the job they were elected to do rather than blocking just to harm their opponent. Spending their time to harm rather than striving for our country be the best it can be. So many self-serving politicians working only to achieve wealth and power for themselves. Please vote and elect people that actually love this country.
jfk was the epitome of decency RIP.
this speech is etched in my mind.
I liked a lot of things that JFK did during his presidency (excluding his external affairs) and I would of wish to heard what RFK would've given his inaugural speech if he was elected president.
There is no better definition of what it means to be an American.
That’s what a true Patriot is and does.
Kennedy,
Was the man, still the man, and always will be the man!
I wish I could understand why there are 6 thumbs down votes in this. We need a leader who will live these words so our country will too.
Lee Harvey Oswald obviously took this to heart.
Best Speech Ever! God Bless You Mr. Kennedy!
0:52 A quote that I live my life off every day, I am a freedom loving American a marked made in history at this exact moment by a smart man!
If only we were like this now. God bless the United States of America and God bless every Democrat and Republican. No matter what party we are, we are still AMERICANS, no matter the color, race or gender.
Love JFK, was born a couple towns away from where I was born, and was my grandfather@s favorite president
One of the greatest Democratic leaders this country has ever had, and the last good one, too.
I believe the day JFK was killed the Democrats died with him.
I’m a Trump Supporter and I approve this message!
Janna Watson I agree 100%!
Wrong
@@kelb6073 he’s not that wrong
I will never forget these lines even if I forget the textbooks that I read.
I love that speech.
If you get lost in the woods, the local community will help look for you. If you get detained by another country, our government will try to help you. I believe America has a truly pure foundation at its core and we should work daily to make our country ever greater.
Wrong the whole speech is about you asking what you can do for the government
@@Captaiesqueleto You can’t do anything dead
One of the greatest speeches ever delivered
Never Forget…
The Noble,The Humble ,The Honest & One of the Best President & Representative of The Northern Hemisphere 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉! We still miss you Mr.President -RIP- Love you America
Amen. I often wondered about so many Christian religions out there. I get paranoid just thinking of so much opposition between them. Then someone says when 'unity and peace' comes, it'll be the end.
I do pray and cry when I'm alone sometimes. I ask for forgiveness and for courage to face another day. And then, the thought pops into my head: "ask not what your country can do for you" this makes me feel at ease. It gives me purpose.
If I were to give someone advise, I would say, read, study on your own time instead of wasting time with social media end television. And, pray. The Holy Spirit is real . Love you folks. Let's keep up. Life is short
"Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do to your country." JFK's famous quote🙏
everlasting quote
And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country.
John F. Kennedy
🇺🇸 needs another JFK.
greatest speech ever.
I AGREE, he is a long cousin from Ireland of mine, HONESTLY
"Ask not what your company can do for you. Ask what you can do for the company" - some CEO somewhere
I'm addition to his most quoted words, his ending was also powerful.We go foth asking God,s blessing, but knowing that here on earth God''s work is our own.
JFK was one helluva man, people with his resolve and character, keep countries together. A house divided against itself Cannot stand.
Righteous Man. Rip. 🙏
We can use his words today more than ever before.
It makes more sense today!
My grandfather president John f Kennedy does a very good speech 💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬💬
This was indeed a great speech of Time.
0:25 don’t mind me just a replay for me I’m trying to learn for a recitation
0:35 the best part!
Goosebumps
my fellow citizens of the world, ask not what America will do for you but what you can do for America
These were still the good old days
This speech lives in my mind
JFk.. We need you now.
Amen
Be a patriot and wear a mask. A simple thing you can do for your country!
This part is now the legend of all presidents in history 0:52
0:52 Most of best speech parts in the world
Amazing
Exactly!
I wish men still wore top hats to such occasions!
0:52 Your Welcome!
This quote was so famous that somehow the translation of it became super famous in Vietnam
"Ask not what your country can do for you... ask what can you do for your country!"
I think we should ask both. After all, a country that does nothing for the individual is a country that fails as a country.
World’s Greatest President, of all time.
My Dream of Leader and my Dream of Country! 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🌟🌠💫
The credit of those famous words goes to A GREAT ARAB POET “ Khalil Gibran”
good to know that
Why did I get an ad of this.
President with the most Aura by FAR
He may let them rest in a feeling of security but his eyes are on their ways.
oh boy look how far we've fallen 😢
Miss America
We need this spirit rn pray for America and entire world covid 19 we shall persevere we shall face death with bravery
BEST DEMOCRAT OF ALL TIME, iternal flame
He was a Republican
Maybe our Congress should ask itself what it can do for it's country since there approval rating is 12%
Kennedy would not recognize today's democrat party.
John Henderson eh. I kinda doubt he would still be content with the current state of the Democratic Party. They are literally the party of handouts.
John Henderson he was in some areas/issues but he wouldn’t be anywhere near the likes of Booker, Ocasio-Cortez or Sanders.
Bernie and JFK are similar lol, both support universal healthcare, I know you conservatives dont like it
Imagine what he would think of the Republicans...imagine what any real Republican would think of them.
Maar He wanted guaranteed health care for “The Elderly” Not for every American.
