It's amazing how one speech completely changed the light in which Khrushchev once viewed JFK. He perceived him as a weak man and leader when they'd first met. It's a shame what happened to him; I always wonder how differently the past could have gone had he carried out his term and been subsequently re-elected.

It was Kennedy and Khrushchev who had set up a secret diplomatic channel through the Catholic Church. Over this channel they became friends much to the chagrin of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Without that goodwill, the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis would have ended very badly. Kennedy was dead a few months later.
Soul moving... war is never inevitable.. Makes you cry just to hear someone speak of peace, when the last twenty years have been spent in continuous war. 🦋🙏
Basically the entire 20th century..so much death. Makes me sad,anr the real people that wanted it all to occur were never the ones willing to lay down their lives for it. They were the ones making all the money from it. Makes me sick, and then sad for those with premature death who never got to experience a full life
War not only of nations, but families, friends, and future generations fight a war not with guns and bombs but ideals and information. Politics has caused more division than any other conflict.
He told everything.. look at your own attitude.. I'm pretty sure many of anti war people still praise a newly engaged soldier, while you just should discourage him.
He probably wrote this himself. Damn. I wish we had men like this today. Watch it all. Not sure people know about his WWII service and survival. A very rich kid, surviving battle, risking his life for our country. God bless you JFK.
thank you James thank you how easy they forget a true hero "that love this country he could have stayed home and say the hell with this war but he didn't America forgot what a hero is "today Americas heroes are anybody who's a racist and a criminal.
Kennedy had speechwriters although he’d usually edit the final draft. Ted Sorensen wrote some of Kennedy’s most famous speeches. Richard Goodwin also wrote speeches for LBJ and Kennedy. Both have books out there. I read “Remembering America” by Goodwin. Goodwin’s most famous speeches were written for LBJ. He coined the term “the Great Society” and wrote Johnson’s “We Shall Overcome” speech regarding civil rights.
All Presidents have had speechwriters. But Kennedy was very actively involved with his speeches and even wrote many himself, but he’d always edit and give final say and took many many notes. His speechwriter Ted Sorenson
I believed it so... When I searched further.. he accessed presidency by his father support that had a lot of mafia contacts.. He was supposed to be "cool" with the mafia but later he pursued them. Then we know the story.
This is one of the few times I actually feel inspired by a Rich Boy graduating higher education. Not through the hardship he endured, definitely not, he could afford the best tutors and best classes, but through the result and full potential realized of a person who clearly cared more about the world around him than most of his contemporaries. Started the fight in Washington to end Segregation, Kept the World Safe in the height of the Cold War, and Inspired the Nation to reach for the Moon, literally. - May John rest in peace, left the world much better off from how he found it.
He knew hardship he was given last rights by his church also he went through the hardship of war where he saved the lives of his crew and in final he went through a brutal murder for trying to bring peace to the world
Man can never have peace! Peace only comes from God and our only true Savior Jesus Christ! Man cannot save himself because he is corrupted by sin! Mankind is doomed unless we turn to the savior and repent before it's too late!

Arther Kishore the problem is that the deep state in Kennedy's day did hear it and didn't like it. And the presidents you named are as against Trump as the deep state in the 60's we're against JFK. Trump believes very similarly as JFK. JFK knew about the threat of the deep state in his time and Trump knows about the deep state in our time. JFK was killed for wanting to get rid of the deep state. He didn't realize just how much power and evil intent they had. Trump has the military protecting him vs secret service because he knows what he's up against. We need to pray for POTUS Trump.
Omet. Thanks for true but stirring comment. I was 20 when JFK was murdered. I knew in days afterwards that our nation (govt. that is) had elements that had sunk as low as they could...and for 50+ years I sought out the small amount of good investigative reporters and to this day I am terribly angry that although we do know much about the 60's murders of JFK, RFK and MLK, I wish before I am gone I'd see all the truth laid out and dead or alive, that all involved will be exposed. I just watched a fine hour with the late Barry Goldwater who said a host of things of praise for Jack Kennedy...he wanted to run for president (knowing he could not beat JFK but I discovered they were fine friends and talked of the upcoming campaign)...it wd. have been a campaign of ideas and their philosophies...B.G. went on to say he knew the Kennedy family and much more. I loved what both these men stood for and very old now, I come to this speech on UA-cam or in my collection of all Kennedy's speeches and I still often weep. I take comfort that there are some (who take time to know him, his life) that they will carry on that fact. Please forgive the verbosity...I was moved by your comment.
And to think that this exceptional person only had about 5 months left to lead our country RIP MR. PRESIDENT This so saddened me....I remember when I 1st heard of this great man's death. I was with my beautiful Grandmother.

The most famous collision in U.S. Navy history occurred at about 2:30 a.m. on August 2, 1943, a hot, moonless night in the Pacific. Patrol Torpedo boat 109 was idling in Blackett Strait in the Solomon Islands. The 80-foot craft had orders to attack enemy ships on a resupply mission. With virtually no warning, a Japanese destroyer emerged from the black night and smashed into PT-109, slicing it in two and igniting its fuel tanks. The collision was part of a wild night of blunders by 109 and other boats that one historian later described as “the most screwed up PT boat action of World War II.” Yet American newspapers and magazines reported the PT-109 mishap as a triumph. Eleven of the 13 men aboard survived, and their tale, declared the Boston Globe, “was one of the great stories of heroism in this war.” Crew members who were initially ashamed of the accident found themselves depicted as patriots of the first order, their behavior a model of valor. The Globe story and others heaped praise on Lieutenant (j.g.) John F. Kennedy, commander of the 109 and son of the millionaire and former diplomat Joseph Kennedy. KENNEDY’S SON IS HERO IN PACIFIC AS DESTROYER SPLITS HIS PT BOAT, declared a New York Times headline. It was Kennedy’s presence, of course, that made the collision big news. And it was his father’s media savvy that helped turn an embarrassing disaster into a tale worthy of Homer. Airbrushed from this PR confection was Lieutenant Kennedy’s reaction to the accident. The young officer was deeply pained by the death of two of his men in the collision. Returning to duty in command of a new breed of PT boat, he lobbied for dangerous assignments and displayed a recklessness that worried fellow officers. Kennedy, they said, was hell-bent on redeeming himself and getting revenge on the Japanese. Kennedy would later embrace the myths of PT-109 and ride them into the White House. But in his last months in combat, he appeared to be a troubled young man trying to make peace with what happened that dark night in the Solomons.
Judith Campbell Exner, who served as a conduit between JFK and mobster Sam Giancana, had an abortion after becoming pregnant with the President’s child, revealing details about their alleged affair in her 1977 memoir “My Story.” Jackie Kennedy is said to have been unsurprised by what the book revealed. The alleged mafia moll Exner spoke again of her relationship with the president in a 1997 interview with Vanity Fair in which she revealed that she ended her two-year affair with Kennedy in early 1963. It is around this time she claims that she aborted his child. Introduced to Kennedy via her ex Frank Sinatra, she ferried envelopes between the President and Sam Giancana, to whom she was also a mistress, including, she claims, alleged payoffs or instructions for vote-buying in elections and plans to kill Fidel Castro. “Jack never in a million years thought he was doing anything that would hurt me, but that’s the way he conducted himself; the Kennedys have their own set of rules,” she said.
"World peace does not require that man loves thy neighbor, but only that they live together in mutual tolerance" - This falls on death ears these days.
@Raidri Conchobair If you were to say Hollywood, yes. From what I've seen there are very much good American's in both the Dem's and Republicans. America ain't the problem, corporations, media moguls and those with red agenda's are the ones to blame. The fact that your current President hasn't started any new wars and has pulled troops out is proof. China are a bigger threat.
The answer is not violence, it's not complaining. The answer is that *we* become those articulate, intelligent and educated men and women of honor. People are asking where these people of integrity are, rather than working hard to become a person of integrity and knowledge.
We might not be able to bring about a perfect world peace, but we can decide for ourselves when and if we want to go to war. We can use all our resources to avoid war. If we really want it, we can have peace. The only president who actually did start a war, at least the only one in the 20th or 21st centuries, was George W Bush with his war in Iraq. He did everything just the opposite of what Kennedy urged in this speech, and he made the world incalculably more dangerous in doing so. Did Bush meet with or talk with Saddam? No. Did Bush try to understand Saddam or even Al Qaeda? No. All the guerilla fighting, which we now call terrorism because it sells the war better at home, has flowed from our horrible decisions and lack of understanding in the region. I think every recent president except Jimmy Carter is guilty of that. But then Kennedy didn't exactly follow his own advice very well. At the time of this speech he was still trying to have Castro assassinated. That's not trying to understand one's enemy. By going against his own advice, he just made Castro stronger. Kennedy's advice was sound, and the goal was achievable, at least in the big picture. I think it still is.
+Nobody Lurker but this is want he believes in and therefor works for that, meaning he doesn't like violence. He knows what war is like, as he was been in war himself and has seen the horrors of it. It is better than a president who declares war a lot isn't it?
We already have world peace. Major powers no longer fight each other directly, and even proxy wars are almost entirely a thing of the past. I'm not saying there is no war, but there has been a VERY significant increase in peace for the last several decades. Combat deaths in particular have been declining since WW2.
"Our problems are man made and therefore can be solved by man". This is truer now than ever.I watch this time and time again to reignite my hope when I am down.
I don't wish to burst your bubble, but this is certainly flawed logic and the key phrase in Mr. Kennedy's speech that reveals how naive he was in believing man can bring about a lasting peace and avoid the utter destruction our current technology makes possible. There is no disputing that mankind is the problem, and since that is so, it is utterly illogical to assume that the source of the problem can of itself become the wellspring of hope that will provide the solution. That would require every human being to achieve a level of humility through self-examination and assumption of complete and total personal responsibility that has never, in all the history of man been witnessed or recorded. What history has recorded is the utter selfishness and pride of man that seeks to justify his every doing and cast blame for outcomes on others rather than where it truly belongs. We have witnessed war in the name of religion, rape, murder, genocide, the annihilation of entire ethnic groups within regions and somehow we think that we can achieve some sort of enlightened state by our own efforts? The expression "when pigs fly" comes to mind. It won't happen no matter how long you hope or wait for it. Our problems are a direct function of something lacking in our thinking and ability to reason and judge matters. Only by thinking differently, thereby changing how we judge and how we respond to others can our problems be solved. The mind of man today is no different than it has ever been. There is nothing new under the sun, we just live in a different age, and age of technology that man has been given by God. We did not bring it about on our own! All the knowledge of the sciences that has led to such progress came to man from God. But one thing is lacking, the mind of God. We have ability to do many things in this modern age and with this has come greater conflict, suffering, and threat of anihilation of all life, than has ever existed before. We have physical knowledge, and with it, much power has been placed in our hands, all to reveal the truth about what we will choose to do with it when put to the test. We will wage another war, only God can save us from completely destroying ourselves.

He was before my time so I appreciate this speech and seeing him alive and vital. He was very intelligent, witty and charming. No wonder people were devastated when he died and so violently. He didn’t deserve to die like that. RIP JFK and RFK, MLK and Malcom X
I will agree that it was a good speech in that Mr. Kennedy was a well-spoken man, a gifted orator and sincerely believed what he was saying, however, he was also very naive to think that a body such as the UN could eradicate war and the selfish pursuits of men that lead to it from this earth. There is either a God who will save us from ourselves, who has a purpose in all the history and recorded witness of human suffering, or there is not. If there is not and those who support evolution are correct, then no life on this earth, human or otherwise, has any future. A certain end will come, now that we possess such destructive power as we do and continue to increase in it day by day. The UN, after all, is a body of human beings as are all governments of the earth. If individual governments cannot get along, even within nations, never mind internationally, then how is a global "governing" body such as the UN going to effect any serious change in that when it is populated with the same flawed human beings that are running the nations and regional governments of this world? We may not wish to admit this truth, but it is a truth all the same, whether we acknowledge it or not will not change the outcome.
Bro...he doesn't lay out a single track or method for attaining a lasting peace. You obviously have some trouble grasping the sophisticated concepts he addresses in this speech that acknowledge the difficulties of the human condition and its sociopolitical systems.

His speech resonates with millions of us. We are like him. But none of us are politiians. We are everyday people with jobs and families and personal lives.
His nephew is a spitting image (in his ideals) of him, and is running. He's being silenced by the corrupt bureaucrats, but he's amassing a huge following. He's been doing 2-3 hour interviews on tons of podcasts. You may have heard misinformation spread about him in the mainstream media, because he's going after the corporate capture in our government and the military industrial complex. I urge anyone to actually listen to what he's REALLY saying. I was urged by a close friend to watch just ONE podcast with him. I now believe he's the most important candidate since his father and uncle, and can bring our country back to an exemplary democracy that we once were. Lex Fridman's podcast is a great one. His declaration of independence speech is also, in my opinion, one of the greatest speeches in the last 50 years.
i was 5 years old and this still bring tears to my eyes .remember my mother and grandmother and all the women in my neighborhood all sitting in the kitchen table crying Saying what is going to happen to Our children now our great president is no longer with us. There will never be another Mr Kennedy never .😢
So many things changed, for the worse and went wrong when he was cut down. This is still considered one of the greatest Presidential speeches ever, perhaps THE BEST, other than Gettysburg.
Robert Kennedy Jr. Is a lovely candidate now, I’m sure you know already but his recent speeches are not to be missed- he is an inspiration just as his uncle was
I was honoured to be a passer-by when JFK gave his speech at the Berlin Schönegerber Rathaus (Ich bin ein Berliner) on June 22, 1963. I, 9 years old, was on my way to my uncle's home and had no idea what was happening. Five months later, I was devastated to learn what had been going on in Dallas. What a shame that nobody found out for sure who, why, and how, it was going to happen.
However, we do not stop our collective pursuit of release of information from which we are gleaning the image of what had the temerity to attempt to extinguish such a vision illuminated from its wisdom. Can’t touch this and we never stop inquiring into the matter. Truth will out and we are coming closer by our scrutiny

Trump and JFK son were very good friends.until his died in 1999. Trump has always admired JFK and his values what JFK stood for and wanted for our country which was to keep peace with those around the world. Trump tried to stop the War mongers. Trump loves our country he truly wants to make America great again like it was years ago. In my opinion that's why they hate him so much and don't want him around.
The best part about this is that the crowd has not been trained to caterwaul and crazily applaud after each phrase in order to drum up perceived support or dissent. People used to be civilized.

She made these claims in her memoir “Love, Jack.” The young Swede first met with 36-year-old JFK when she was 21 and they were both visiting the French Riviera. In her memoir, she wrote of the night: “He turned and kissed me tenderly and my breath was taken away. The brightness of the moon and stars made his eyes appear bluer than the ocean beneath us.” At the time JFK was to marry Jackie in three weeks but the pair stayed in touch, meeting another night two years later.

I can only listen to Kennedy speak in small portions because I'm hit with a deep sense of pain and loss. I'm only 25 years old, and yet this man from 60 years ago moves something in me as he did for people during his time. He is hope and peace incarnate, but the peace he spoke of will never come thanks to his killers, a shattered and darkened world that seems darker thanks to his and his brothers and other men like Malcolm and MLK's passing. And yet, I still believe in the hope he talks about that there is hope for the future; the wolves have not driven it out of us entirely. God damn, what a president.
You should study Eisenhowers Chance for Peace and his last speech as president. JFK was a boy compared to IKE who helped us win WW2 and kept us out of major conflicts after
Jfk has always been my favorite president, and I’ve recently visited his grave. Now I’m very young as well, but I totally understand what you mean. He was full of youth, hope, and kindness and he wanted to give that to people. He had a kind soul and that’s very hard to find now. He didn’t see race, sexuality, gender, nationality, party, he just wanted love and peace for everyone. Seeing his grave and fully realizing that for the first time almost made me brake down and cry. If he was here now he would be a beacon of hope, as he was for the people of his time. I never lived through his life, I never saw his assassination, but I grieve for him.
President Kennedy was killed by people within our own government and in my own opinion the CIA was at the top of the list among others. The democrat party was never the same after he was killed , in fact it went in a completely different direction because they wanted to. His brother Bobby was killed and Martin Luther King was killed and that was no coincidence. All killings were from inside our own government and our country headed in a different direction after all these men were killed. I am 75 years old and have lived through this history. We are in great trouble in this country as our leaders are now pushing for a nuclear war with Russia where there will be no winners. I pray for you young people whose whole life will change in a blink of an eye if we let this happen. God help us

What a remarkable Man. He was so articulate I have been reading about this administration since 1972. I am now 56. I think so much of you JFK you were so brave thank you.
Calling for the end of the Cold War in a country with a war based economy was probably one of the most courageous acts in all American history, but it cost him his life
He may have known it was courageous and/or necessary and would put his life in danger. But he also knew his presidency would be a waste if he didn’t try. He tried to take full advantage of his office and ultimately gave his life in that pursuit.
First I'm happy that JFKs words and what he tried to do are remembered. He was no saint but he had compassion and cared about his fellow man. What you said is the absolute crux of the problem, which I've considered for many years without success. Also the transition from an arms based economy to something less toxic would have to be attractive to the military industrial complex or the idea would be killed off along with it's inventor. Pretty bleak really and not much solace in the fact that empires raise and fall. Make your own world if you can't change this one.
The USA now spends $2 billion every day on war, and there is no community in America that does not have some kind of economic interests tied to the war economy. Wrestling the $2 billion a day away from the military industrial complex would require a multi-generational political movement struggle, just like abolition of slavery was a monumental struggle.
I believe this speech is the ultimate reason why he wasn't allowed to live to serve out a second term. He sought to end the Cold War and deescalate military tensions. For this reason, he wasn't allowed to live and the powers to be executed him in Dallas, in November of 1963.
The most brilliant and beautiful political speech of all time. It was Monday June 10, 1963 - oh, to have been one of the lucky graduates in the crowd hearing it live! And let's not forget, the following day, June 11th, JFK gave his historic Civil Rights speech to the nation on tv. His two greatest speeches, back to back. This was the icing on the cake that got him assassinated. :'(
Linda, don't forget he had the corrupt, conniving, criminal, and lying Lyndon B. Johnson as his VP, who (with friend J. Edgar Hoover as head of the FBI) blackmailed JFK to get into the VP slot in the first place. LBJ was going to kill JFK no matter what speeches JFK gave.

Kennedy had speechwriters although he’d usually edit the final draft. Ted Sorensen wrote some of Kennedy’s most famous speeches. Richard Goodwin also wrote speeches for LBJ and Kennedy. Both have books out there. I read “Remembering America” by Goodwin. Goodwin’s most famous speeches were written for LBJ. He coined the term “the Great Society” and wrote Johnson’s “We Shall Overcome” speech regarding civil rights.
Ted Sorensen...
All Presidents have had speechwriters. But Kennedy was very actively involved with his speeches and even wrote many himself, but he’d always edit and give final say and took many many notes. His speechwriter Ted Sorenson

This is one of the few times I actually feel inspired by a Rich Boy graduating higher education. Not through the hardship he endured, definitely not, he could afford the best tutors and best classes, but through the result and full potential realized of a person who clearly cared more about the world around him than most of his contemporaries. Started the fight in Washington to end Segregation, Kept the World Safe in the height of the Cold War, and Inspired the Nation to reach for the Moon, literally.

He knew hardship he was given last rights by his church also he went through the hardship of war where he saved the lives of his crew and in final he went through a brutal murder for trying to bring peace to the world
This is just brilliant. “If man made the problem, man can solve the problem” is such a good analogy too.
Man can never have peace! Peace only comes from God and our only true Savior Jesus Christ! Man cannot save himself because he is corrupted by sin! Mankind is doomed unless we turn to the savior and repent before it's too late!

Arther Kishore the problem is that the deep state in Kennedy's day did hear it and didn't like it. And the presidents you named are as against Trump as the deep state in the 60's we're against JFK. Trump believes very similarly as JFK. JFK knew about the threat of the deep state in his time and Trump knows about the deep state in our time. JFK was killed for wanting to get rid of the deep state. He didn't realize just how much power and evil intent they had. Trump has the military protecting him vs secret service because he knows what he's up against. We need to pray for POTUS Trump.
That must be a comedic post, surely...
Omet. Thanks for true but stirring comment. I was 20 when JFK was murdered. I knew in days afterwards that our nation (govt. that is) had elements that had sunk as low as they could...and for 50+ years I sought out the small amount of good investigative reporters and to this day I am terribly angry that although we do know much about the 60's murders of JFK, RFK and MLK, I wish before I am gone I'd see all the truth laid out and dead or alive, that all involved will be exposed.
I just watched a fine hour with the late Barry Goldwater who said a host of things of praise for Jack Kennedy...he wanted to run for president (knowing he could not beat JFK but I discovered they were fine friends and talked of the upcoming campaign)...it wd. have been a campaign of ideas and their philosophies...B.G. went on to say he knew the Kennedy family and much more. I loved what both these men stood for and very old now, I come to this speech on UA-cam or in my collection of all Kennedy's speeches and I still often weep. I take comfort that there are some (who take time to know him, his life) that they will carry on that fact.
Please forgive the verbosity...I was moved by your comment.

@Jeff Whitman In the final analysis, wasn't the joke on the US on that one?
@Jeff Whitman since manifest destiny.
The most famous collision in U.S. Navy history occurred at about 2:30 a.m. on August 2, 1943, a hot, moonless night in the Pacific. Patrol Torpedo boat 109 was idling in Blackett Strait in the Solomon Islands. The 80-foot craft had orders to attack enemy ships on a resupply mission. With virtually no warning, a Japanese destroyer emerged from the black night and smashed into PT-109, slicing it in two and igniting its fuel tanks. The collision was part of a wild night of blunders by 109 and other boats that one historian later described as “the most screwed up PT boat action of World War II.” Yet American newspapers and magazines reported the PT-109 mishap as a triumph. Eleven of the 13 men aboard survived, and their tale, declared the Boston Globe, “was one of the great stories of heroism in this war.” Crew members who were initially ashamed of the accident found themselves depicted as patriots of the first order, their behavior a model of valor.
The Globe story and others heaped praise on Lieutenant (j.g.) John F. Kennedy, commander of the 109 and son of the millionaire and former diplomat Joseph Kennedy. KENNEDY’S SON IS HERO IN PACIFIC AS DESTROYER SPLITS HIS PT BOAT, declared a New York Times headline. It was Kennedy’s presence, of course, that made the collision big news. And it was his father’s media savvy that helped turn an embarrassing disaster into a tale worthy of Homer.
Airbrushed from this PR confection was Lieutenant Kennedy’s reaction to the accident. The young officer was deeply pained by the death of two of his men in the collision. Returning to duty in command of a new breed of PT boat, he lobbied for dangerous assignments and displayed a recklessness that worried fellow officers. Kennedy, they said, was hell-bent on redeeming himself and getting revenge on the Japanese.
Kennedy would later embrace the myths of PT-109 and ride them into the White House. But in his last months in combat, he appeared to be a troubled young man trying to make peace with what happened that dark night in the Solomons.
Judith Campbell Exner, who served as a conduit between JFK and mobster Sam Giancana, had an abortion after becoming pregnant with the President’s child, revealing details about their alleged affair in her 1977 memoir “My Story.” Jackie Kennedy is said to have been unsurprised by what the book revealed.
The alleged mafia moll Exner spoke again of her relationship with the president in a 1997 interview with Vanity Fair in which she revealed that she ended her two-year affair with Kennedy in early 1963. It is around this time she claims that she aborted his child.
Introduced to Kennedy via her ex Frank Sinatra, she ferried envelopes between the President and Sam Giancana, to whom she was also a mistress, including, she claims, alleged payoffs or instructions for vote-buying in elections and plans to kill Fidel Castro.
“Jack never in a million years thought he was doing anything that would hurt me, but that’s the way he conducted himself; the Kennedys have their own set of rules,” she said.

From zambia 🇿🇲 I love listening to the speech of great people,
A beautiful speech by a beautiful American President.
"World peace does not require that man loves thy neighbor, but only that they live together in mutual tolerance" - This falls on death ears these days.
Death ears or deaf ears ?
Ilias Mavromatis both
Alex Volkov rite...
It absolutely does require man to love his neighbor.
JKF was extremely wrong with this statement. mark 12: 30-31.
JFK recognised the entire issue and was a complete genius.
The only one that ever did. Ever.
Yes a complete genius, could read 1,200 words a minute & kept growing as a politician & learned from his mistakes !
@Raidri Conchobair The issue is communism.
@Raidri Conchobair If you were to say Hollywood, yes. From what I've seen there are very much good American's in both the Dem's and Republicans. America ain't the problem, corporations, media moguls and those with red agenda's are the ones to blame. The fact that your current President hasn't started any new wars and has pulled troops out is proof. China are a bigger threat.
@Raidri Conchobair Sure, is the deep state controlling everything too then?
A great President and a great American. God bless you. RIP. We miss you so much.
He was one of a kind, a maverick and a true pioneer. What a horrific loss this country suffered.
Articulate, intelligent, witty, educated and above all a man of honor, where are these men today?
in jail or buried next to JFK.
very sad..what can we do ...?
They read JFK's book Profiles in Courage and said "fuck no' afterwards It ain't gonna be me.
The answer is not violence, it's not complaining. The answer is that *we* become those articulate, intelligent and educated men and women of honor. People are asking where these people of integrity are, rather than working hard to become a person of integrity and knowledge.
Not chasing power that's where they are.
Truly one of the greatest speeches by any president.
We might not be able to bring about a perfect world peace, but we can decide for ourselves when and if we want to go to war. We can use all our resources to avoid war. If we really want it, we can have peace. The only president who actually did start a war, at least the only one in the 20th or 21st centuries, was George W Bush with his war in Iraq. He did everything just the opposite of what Kennedy urged in this speech, and he made the world incalculably more dangerous in doing so. Did Bush meet with or talk with Saddam? No. Did Bush try to understand Saddam or even Al Qaeda? No. All the guerilla fighting, which we now call terrorism because it sells the war better at home, has flowed from our horrible decisions and lack of understanding in the region. I think every recent president except Jimmy Carter is guilty of that. But then Kennedy didn't exactly follow his own advice very well. At the time of this speech he was still trying to have Castro assassinated. That's not trying to understand one's enemy. By going against his own advice, he just made Castro stronger. Kennedy's advice was sound, and the goal was achievable, at least in the big picture. I think it still is.
+Nobody Lurker but this is want he believes in and therefor works for that, meaning he doesn't like violence. He knows what war is like, as he was been in war himself and has seen the horrors of it. It is better than a president who declares war a lot isn't it?
+Beena Plumber not true jfk didn't believe in assassinations that's the white washing of his history.
Uh... I'm not sure I even want a clarification of that...
We already have world peace. Major powers no longer fight each other directly, and even proxy wars are almost entirely a thing of the past. I'm not saying there is no war, but there has been a VERY significant increase in peace for the last several decades. Combat deaths in particular have been declining since WW2.
How far we've fallen since then. Dear God, please heal our nation, and our world. 🇺🇸🕊🌏
This speech needs frequently be distributed on the social media!
So perhaps several of us do this again and again.
"Our problems are man made and therefore can be solved by man". This is truer now than ever.I watch this time and time again to reignite my hope when I am down.
I don't wish to burst your bubble, but this is certainly flawed logic and the key phrase in Mr. Kennedy's speech that reveals how naive he was in believing man can bring about a lasting peace and avoid the utter destruction our current technology makes possible. There is no disputing that mankind is the problem, and since that is so, it is utterly illogical to assume that the source of the problem can of itself become the wellspring of hope that will provide the solution. That would require every human being to achieve a level of humility through self-examination and assumption of complete and total personal responsibility that has never, in all the history of man been witnessed or recorded. What history has recorded is the utter selfishness and pride of man that seeks to justify his every doing and cast blame for outcomes on others rather than where it truly belongs. We have witnessed war in the name of religion, rape, murder, genocide, the annihilation of entire ethnic groups within regions and somehow we think that we can achieve some sort of enlightened state by our own efforts? The expression "when pigs fly" comes to mind. It won't happen no matter how long you hope or wait for it. Our problems are a direct function of something lacking in our thinking and ability to reason and judge matters. Only by thinking differently, thereby changing how we judge and how we respond to others can our problems be solved. The mind of man today is no different than it has ever been. There is nothing new under the sun, we just live in a different age, and age of technology that man has been given by God. We did not bring it about on our own! All the knowledge of the sciences that has led to such progress came to man from God. But one thing is lacking, the mind of God. We have ability to do many things in this modern age and with this has come greater conflict, suffering, and threat of anihilation of all life, than has ever existed before. We have physical knowledge, and with it, much power has been placed in our hands, all to reveal the truth about what we will choose to do with it when put to the test. We will wage another war, only God can save us from completely destroying ourselves.

RIP JFK and RFK, MLK and Malcom X
This speech is so ridiculously good.
I will agree that it was a good speech in that Mr. Kennedy was a well-spoken man, a gifted orator and sincerely believed what he was saying, however, he was also very naive to think that a body such as the UN could eradicate war and the selfish pursuits of men that lead to it from this earth. There is either a God who will save us from ourselves, who has a purpose in all the history and recorded witness of human suffering, or there is not. If there is not and those who support evolution are correct, then no life on this earth, human or otherwise, has any future. A certain end will come, now that we possess such destructive power as we do and continue to increase in it day by day. The UN, after all, is a body of human beings as are all governments of the earth. If individual governments cannot get along, even within nations, never mind internationally, then how is a global "governing" body such as the UN going to effect any serious change in that when it is populated with the same flawed human beings that are running the nations and regional governments of this world? We may not wish to admit this truth, but it is a truth all the same, whether we acknowledge it or not will not change the outcome.
Bro...he doesn't lay out a single track or method for attaining a lasting peace. You obviously have some trouble grasping the sophisticated concepts he addresses in this speech that acknowledge the difficulties of the human condition and its sociopolitical systems.

His nephew is literally running rn
His nephew is a spitting image (in his ideals) of him, and is running. He's being silenced by the corrupt bureaucrats, but he's amassing a huge following. He's been doing 2-3 hour interviews on tons of podcasts. You may have heard misinformation spread about him in the mainstream media, because he's going after the corporate capture in our government and the military industrial complex. I urge anyone to actually listen to what he's REALLY saying. I was urged by a close friend to watch just ONE podcast with him. I now believe he's the most important candidate since his father and uncle, and can bring our country back to an exemplary democracy that we once were. Lex Fridman's podcast is a great one. His declaration of independence speech is also, in my opinion, one of the greatest speeches in the last 50 years.

Trump has always admired JFK and his values what JFK stood for and wanted for our country which was to keep peace with those around the world. Trump tried to stop the War mongers. Trump loves our country he truly wants to make America great again like it was years ago. In my opinion that's why they hate him so much and don't want him around.

His death changed our lives His death started a movement that controlled our World. We marched for Peace. We praise you President Kennedy!!!!!
My favorite of all JFK speeches. We miss him so much and wish their was a voice like this in today's world.
+Chris Terrence it's my second to the speech that got him killed; cause he knew the dangers of his life was threatened , but still gave out the speech with courage.
+Chris Terrence Me too
+Chris Terrence This my favorite as well. Sad how far we have fallen.
He gets better and better as time moves on .
How many bodies must we lay upon the altar of the gun?
As a nation, we have certainly, declined, in every form.
THIS WAS THE ONLY PRESIDENT THAT COULD OF SET THE WORLD FREE WITH PEACE
We need a JFK now more than ever.
Unfortunately the DNC would NEVER accept him if he were running today.
I’m on my way haha
Too many in this country would consider even him to be a right wing fascist... That's how far to the left we've swung. By the time 2015 came around, This country today was more like USSR then USA. Soros' little buddies would call him the same names they call Trump.
Randumb Rantz I disagree but I respect your opinions.
@@m4g1cM1KE I'd like to be able to disagree with myself, to be honest... But when statues of Lincoln, Washington, and Grant are being torn down or vandalized... Nothing seems beyond reason.
May he rest in peace, one of the best Presidents we've ever had.
Jessie Duplantis Saw JFK IN Heaven. Saw Pic WHAT 35 Started 45 Shall Finish. Delete ALL Negative Emails Etc.
DID Present Anti-Christ politicians As Past: (Recall Bible Promise, I Knew You B4 You Were Born) Kill Babies, JFK, MLK, RFK, The List IS ENDLESS.!? .... CLEARLY DON'T WORRY, CAST MY CARES TO HEAVEN: AS YT Kim Clement Prophetic

He sure was.
Killed by the CIA, his fellow Americans
He became immortalized the same way julias caesar and abe lincoln did he was our modern julias caesar in his own right and time
@@MoneyMoonPlue Swedish socialite Gunilla Von Post claimed to have had a six-year affair with President John F. Kennedy beginning in 1953. She made these claims in her memoir “Love, Jack.”
The young Swede first met with 36-year-old JFK when she was 21 and they were both visiting the French Riviera. In her memoir, she wrote of the night: “He turned and kissed me tenderly and my breath was taken away. The brightness of the moon and stars made his eyes appear bluer than the ocean beneath us.”
At the time JFK was to marry Jackie in three weeks but the pair stayed in touch, meeting another night two years later. Von Post claims that Kennedy rang his father telling him he wanted to divorce Jackie and be with her instead but that he was warned that such a scandal would ruin his political career.
Wow, where did politicians like this go
6 feet under
This was not just a man preaching peace, he was the peace talking.
It is now 2022 and this speech has a powerful meaning now as it did in 1963
I was born in ‘97 and damn do I wish I could’ve been their to listen to this great man speak.
We are blessed to live in a time where we can listen to his voice from old videos! One of the great things about UA-cam is the upload of these old speeches
Only God our creator can bring true peace on the earth
2024 .. U WILL NOT BE FORGOTTEN . - AMEN
A dream that has been at the core of my soul, since I was 7, now 70...and will continue to pray and voice the message of peace to every young person I get a chance to converse.
The final analysis part at 14:04 gives me chills every time I hear. My God, he was so far ahead of his time...
Agreed, the intelligence agencies where pushing a fake narrative subverting the public he knew it was a con. Such a great leader.
He was a head of his time, an intellectual genius, to the likes of we shall never see again !
We all breath the same air, were all mortal
True
Sadly, he wanted a better world, while others around him wanted $$$, oil, gold, power and anything else they could get these greedy little paws on...
This speech needs to be played in Brussels. Play it LOUD on repeat in the halls of NATO headquarters. Warmongering fools of the day!
Yup, that really is directly opposed to how the CIA and the military-industrial-complex view the world. Hurts that he was stopped so early. RIP.
I can only listen to Kennedy speak in small portions because I'm hit with a deep sense of pain and loss. I'm only 25 years old, and yet this man from 60 years ago moves something in me as he did for people during his time. He is hope and peace incarnate, but the peace he spoke of will never come thanks to his killers, a shattered and darkened world that seems darker thanks to his and his brothers and other men like Malcolm and MLK's passing. And yet, I still believe in the hope he talks about that there is hope for the future; the wolves have not driven it out of us entirely. God damn, what a president.
Very well put my friend.
You should study Eisenhowers Chance for Peace and his last speech as president. JFK was a boy compared to IKE who helped us win WW2 and kept us out of major conflicts after
Jfk has always been my favorite president, and I’ve recently visited his grave. Now I’m very young as well, but I totally understand what you mean. He was full of youth, hope, and kindness and he wanted to give that to people. He had a kind soul and that’s very hard to find now. He didn’t see race, sexuality, gender, nationality, party, he just wanted love and peace for everyone. Seeing his grave and fully realizing that for the first time almost made me brake down and cry. If he was here now he would be a beacon of hope, as he was for the people of his time. I never lived through his life, I never saw his assassination, but I grieve for him.
Death is a doorway
President Kennedy was killed by people within our own government and in my own opinion the CIA was at the top of the list among others. The democrat party was never the same after he was killed , in fact it went in a completely different direction because they wanted to. His brother Bobby was killed and Martin Luther King was killed and that was no coincidence. All killings were from inside our own government and our country headed in a different direction after all these men were killed. I am 75 years old and have lived through this history. We are in great trouble in this country as our leaders are now pushing for a nuclear war with Russia where there will be no winners. I pray for you young people whose whole life will change in a blink of an eye if we let this happen. God help us
A truly enlightened man, his greatest speech. I was only 8 when he died and only realized how much he did for mankind until he was gone.
I wasn’t born yet but I came across this and it is so touching, we must share all his speeches to all we can reach, the devil took him away, I just hope he is still watching over us in heaven
Where have the leaders like this gone?
Act Now! Princess Diana, John F. Kennedy, Jr., Carolyn Bessette Kennedy, and Lauren Bessette are ALIVE. There’s also a long list of celebrities, entrepreneurs and others including David Bowie, Elvis, Marilyn Monroe, Michael Jackson, Robin Williams, Steve Jobs, and Whitney Houston who are alive, too. There are many more whose names are not listed. Over time, each one of them joined International Witness Protection Programs for protection. Yes, they went into hiding to protect the lives of loved ones and themselves from unimaginable evil. Now, they’re ready to come out and share their stories with the world. However, you can imagine that they want to do so in the best way possible considering that they had to leave their families, friends, and careers behind. This is where WE COME IN. I’m urging you to share this news with family, friends and in every forum possible (for example, fan websites, Instagram, TikTok, UA-cam, wherever you can). Post messages of Greetings and Love to any of the people on the list. Let’s show them that we are anxious to see them again and are willing to respectfully allow each one of them the opportunity to tell their own stories. As you can imagine, this is a really BIG DEAL for all of these folks. Let’s give them lots of LOVE, RESPECT and ENCOUREMENT and ask them to please come forward now.
They were either killed off or they had a virus released 8 months before their re-election bid. Hopefully that answers the question.
What a remarkable Man. He was so articulate I have been reading about this administration since 1972. I am now 56. I think so much of you JFK you were so brave thank you.
I think about him every day
Agree
As Ray Charles sang "You've got me crying again".
How far we've fallen.
Thank you so much sir please let their be love together 💕🙏
Five and a half months later he was gone😢😢😢😢😢🙏🙏🙏🙏
Calling for the end of the Cold War in a country with a war based economy was probably one of the most courageous acts in all American history, but it cost him his life
He may have known it was courageous and/or necessary and would put his life in danger. But he also knew his presidency would be a waste if he didn’t try. He tried to take full advantage of his office and ultimately gave his life in that pursuit.
You have stated the true motive for his murder.
First I'm happy that JFKs words and what he tried to do are remembered. He was no saint but he had compassion and cared about his fellow man. What you said is the absolute crux of the problem, which I've considered for many years without success. Also the transition from an arms based economy to something less toxic would have to be attractive to the military industrial complex or the idea would be killed off along with it's inventor. Pretty bleak really and not much solace in the fact that empires raise and fall. Make your own world if you can't change this one.
The USA now spends $2 billion every day on war, and there is no community in America that does not have some kind of economic interests tied to the war economy. Wrestling the $2 billion a day away from the military industrial complex would require a multi-generational political movement struggle, just like abolition of slavery was a monumental struggle.
I believe this speech is the ultimate reason why he wasn't allowed to live to serve out a second term. He sought to end the Cold War and deescalate military tensions. For this reason, he wasn't allowed to live and the powers to be executed him in Dallas, in November of 1963.
The most brilliant and beautiful political speech of all time. It was Monday June 10, 1963 - oh, to have been one of the lucky graduates in the crowd hearing it live! And let's not forget, the following day, June 11th, JFK gave his historic Civil Rights speech to the nation on tv. His two greatest speeches, back to back. This was the icing on the cake that got him assassinated. :'(
Linda, don't forget he had the corrupt, conniving, criminal, and lying Lyndon B. Johnson as his VP, who (with friend J. Edgar Hoover as head of the FBI) blackmailed JFK to get into the VP slot in the first place. LBJ was going to kill JFK no matter what speeches JFK gave.
@@freeguy77 jfk and rfk were going to take lbj down thats why robert was killed too
Linda Giovanna Zambanini and just hours after the Civil rights speech, Medgar Evers was assassinated. 😪😪
@@michaelhook8956 oh wow! I remember Medger Evers being murdered/ assassinated. :(
I was not yet (at 10 yrs old) watching the nightly news but I'm pretty sure my patents watched JFK's Civil Rights address to the nation. believe I saw clips of it later. I will go see it on YT as well.
So I didn't know these two things happened so close together!
Makes my ❤ ache to hear his voice .
He was our president and honestly cared about our country 😢
He's the only President during my life time that I truly trusted his judgement & respected his devotion. He was special, he's so missed.
True
Agreed together with Jimmy Carter in my lifetime.
@@kevinmichaelcallihansr5053 it will be a sad day when carter dies. He tried to be different but the neocons got rid of him quickly just like with JFK, except this time they sabotaged him rather than killed him
I just don't understand why JFK continued the policy of isolating of mainland China which began from the outbreak of the Korean War since 1950. Why JFK didn't reach out to recognize mainland China. Why JFK was still hostile towards mainland China?
@@powerfulstrong5673 yes because president despite his internal enemies can do everything on day one. lol
