Within the context of the/our,times. They like everything else will come around again hopefully with a different result. In the meantime get and stay active, politically
I was 8 when JFK died. I was a teenager when Martin and RFK died. I had a little sense of what was going on at the time politically. but never was interested in politics. I used to see pictures of the Vietnam War on TV, the riots, the killings of John, Martin and Bobby. It was a lot to take in. It seems every generation had a war, my father was born during WWI in Italy, He served in WWII. My older brother was born during that war, 1943. My middle brother was born during the Korean War. We all experienced the Vietnam War and all the other wars after that.
It is breath. We were. We are. And here we are. Still. Inhale. And another breath and we continue. It's okay. One more breath. We'll be free. Thank you for your voice.
I knew this family. I live 3 miles from the compound. I was to young to understand these deaths 🙏 Always prayers for these beautiful men . I do remember the night John Jr. Plane went down. All of Cape Cod remembers. Rip John Jr.🙏
This song always moves me to tears. Love your moving video tribute to these four men: Abraham Lincoln and John Kennedy, two of our best USA presidents, and Marting Luther King and Bobby Kennedy, two great men and political advocates. These four men make me proud to be an American and make George Bush seem like such a joke! He doesn't even come close to the greatness of these men! Thank you for posting.
I'm not young anymore. Just want to live before I die. In other words live to help freedom. It's a useless game if fools right now. What right does it have to deny anyone an open door?
but it seems the good, they die young...and my Dad died less than 6 months after JFK of cancer, he was a good man too :( this song still brings tears to my eyes*
I was three when JFK was taken from us, but learned a lot about him. When MLK & RFK were both taken from us within 2 months...I was eight, but I felt it. Still feel and remember to this day.
Thankful we had them in our lifes,not perfect but goodness for us as a,people and i miss john Kennedy Jr myself as our Birthdays are the same day and i saw,him as a beam of light for America 🇺🇸 💙 He had great potential and matured into such a great man
Another thing about the passing of time. I remember when Jackie Kennedy Onassis passed away from cancer at age 64 in 1994, it was in the news quite a bit. A few days ago Jackie's daughter Caroline Kennedy just turned 65.
"Didn't you love the things they stood for"? RFK Jr is standing for these things to this very day! Please nominate him for 2024 election race. He is being censored, heavily. Please pray for him. ❤
Apparently you didn't listen to the song or you can't comprehend it. When your family don't endorse you that's all you need to know!!!!!!! You're listening to a song with 4 great humans Your remark Frankly is disgusting sorry.
I HAD THE GREAT PRIVILEDGE OF SEEING J F K WHEN HE VISITED MY HOMETOWN CORK CITY IRELAND 🇮🇪 ON JUNE 28TH 1963 HE WAS IN CORK CITY AS PART OF HIS HISTORIC IRISH VISIT I WAS STANDING ON THE SOUTH MALL STREET AS HE PASSED BY HE WAS SMILING AND WAVING TO THE MASSIVE CROWD THAT TURNED OUT TO SEE AND GREET HIM HE LOOKED LIKE A MOVIE STAR ALL TANNED AND HANDSOME HE WAS ON HIS WAY TO CITY HALL TO MEET THE LORD MAYOR OF CORK CITY SEAN CASEY AND OTHER DIGNITARIES A WONDERFUL SPECIAL HAPPY GOLDEN MEMORY FOR ME THEN CAME THAT TERRIBLE DAY IN DALLAS TEXAS U S A BLACK FRIDAY NOVEMBER 22ND 1963 WHEN HE WAS MURDERED IN COLD BLOOD BY A PERSON OR PERSONS ????? WHO ARE NOT WORTHY OF MENTION JOHN FITZGERALD KENNEDY 1917 TO 1963 R I P AMEN ❤
I remember the day when JFK was assassinated . My amazing grandma grabbed my and hugged me so tight crying “ remember Pammy they only kill the good ones” ❤❤
Yes I was only 7 years old when this tragic day happened I remember my mom and dad were devastated by it was the last 😮 time they were said to claim being demacat after that they changed political references to Republican AND been that ever since
We may have a new pres. that will fit into this group,the USA and the world needs that now. Lets hope I want that statue in New York harbor to mean something again.
Facts: Lincoln was a Republican. The Republican Party was started to oppose the extension of slavery. More Republican Congressmen than Democrats voted to end Jim Crow laws. Fact: John Kennedy was shot by a man with pro-communist sympathies. Robert Kennedy was shot by a Palestinian terrorist. Neither Kennedy was killed by a racist or white supremacist. Martin Luther King and Abraham Lincoln-both Republicans-were. Now, that settled, great and inspiring tribute. Peace.
Thank You. I actually came up with this idea in 1970 when I was a junior in High School. Just had to wait for the technology to catch up with my idea. I think history will show George W. being one of the worst presidents this world has ever seen.
@@jojober1980 Bush was an absolute saint compared to Trump. I actually voted for Bush (I am an Independent), but he was the last Republican I have voted for. Trump was an absolute nightmare.
@@jmrx12 agree and I never thought Bush jr was self serving or Narcissist like Donald Trump, it was all about him, the Power with Donald, not so with Bush, he cared for ppl but by the end of his term we were in a severe Recession in which Obama took us out of and got our economy back on track pretty quickly, he cared greatly for ALL Americans unlike DJT who only liked ppl who kissed his azz or backed him no matter what Outrageous crazy things he did and then topped it off with HIS Insurrection!! Crazy times but never again self serving power hungry Donald Trump 😡
Totally agree, Peewee! And we're payin' the price now--Americans in a world that often no longer respects us or sees us a friend and a healthy beacon of democracy. **************Hilary Clinton for President 2008!
Funny how I ran across this,, 10yrs later... Thank God, Hillary did get in as POTUS!!!! Finally have someone with enough brains and will, to turn this country around from where the Democratic party was leading us. Sure you dont like Donald Trump (and I don't care for a lot of what he has done) but SOMEONE has to stand up instead of making the US easy pray for other countries . Forget the "Reset" button already? or perhaps "Red lines in the sand". THAT is not what makes America Strong
@@jazzejoe trump lol please don't even think to put HIM oh this list Jan 6th he owns it 100% he divided us like no other before or after him he was an abomination to our presidency & nation
Don't understand why Abraham Lincoln was part of this: 1. Very were alive the Year this song came out the Year he died (They had to be at least 103 years old) 2. He was 56 years old, not exactly Young compared to the OTHERS! Okay, it was sad for the Country when he was Killed, but that is not my Point!
It's OK. You have a good point actually. But I'm still voting for Hillary because I believe in her ability to make changes once she's in power or at least to do right by us. I do believe she'll have our best interest at heart!
I listen and cry every year. Maga doesn’t care who they hurt. Worry about our brave people who speak out against them. Political violence is part of their play book.
An interesting comment. As you can see I have not removed your thoughts from my page because I feel you have the right givin to you under our Constitution to voice your opinions without fear of reprisal. But I wonder what would have happened if you had made remarkes like that about Hitler during the Third Reich. Best case senario is, that you would have been dragged from your home by the Gestapo and never heard from again. Just some food for thought.
Your the joke. Imagine what 2001 September would have been like if another person was in office ?? Madness and Panic buying would have begun. And all that follows.
please take a us history class. I'm a history major and your ideas are flawed. Mr Lincoln was not as innocent as snow, but what you state is not true either. Go learn- it will open your mind.
We need these men now more than ever
I agree
John Jr. saluting his Dad..
Is one of the most powerful photos ever...
Within the context of the/our,times. They like everything else will come around again hopefully with a different result. In the meantime get and stay active, politically
@@C.E.K. if voting changed anything they would be outlawed, "the times, they are a changing"
I hear your message, loud and clear: Give A Damn@@C.E.K.
Actually, John Jr. was saluting the American flag.
❤
Anyone under age of 50 cant comprehend what we lost in those years. Still remember losing Martin and JFK like it was yesterday.
I was 8 when JFK died. I was a teenager when Martin and RFK died. I had a little sense of what was going on at the time politically. but never was interested in politics. I used to see pictures of the Vietnam War on TV, the riots, the killings of John, Martin and Bobby. It was a lot to take in. It seems every generation had a war, my father was born during WWI in Italy, He served in WWII. My older brother was born during that war, 1943. My middle brother was born during the Korean War. We all experienced the Vietnam War and all the other wars after that.
I am still in mourning today. Probably more this year than ever before. They would be appalled at what has happened to our country.
One of the greatest songs ever written
Linda..I agree
Always loved this song. So moving🥲
I wish America had these men now...God bless. 5*
You thought it was bad in 2008, it is much worse now 2022.
Oh yeah.
The song is hard to listen to without crying, but put with the video and tears flowing like a stream.
What a beautiful song for our heroes 😪💔❤🤟🙏
59 years ago today. A maniac with a gun, helped kill a dream and altered history! Remember it like yesterday. My first real experience with death.
I remember it all too well, & on Sunday Jack Ruby shot & killed Oswald..watched it live on TV as it happened
then the USA the dumb USA has to change your stupid gun laws
I tear up every time I listen to this song sung by Dion. 1968 was a sad year.
The story , music and vocal make this an enduring classic ❤️
Best version ever sung!
Shannon check out Andy Williams version of this song its even better!
really good emotionally touching and moving song
I love this song. Classic and timeless.
Totally awesome. Thank you very much...beautiful memories, beautiful people...
I got chills. I saw each of these events unfold in my lifetime. Beautiful post.
You must be awfully old!!!
You're over 159 years old because that's how old you'd have to be to see Lincoln killed?
I don't think you saw Lincoln assassinated..?
I was only 2 but I remember my mom and Aunt Vicki crying when JFK was killed.
Here I am back again. I can never get through this song without raindrops coming into my eyes. Sung so long ago, but still so poignant today.
We need them now 😮💨
This song will survive forever. Three brave men who believed what they did for all mankind.!!🇺🇸♥️🇺🇸♥️🇺🇸♥️🇺🇸♥️🇺🇸♥️🇺🇸♥️🇺🇸
That would be four ❤ Bobby would have continued the GOOD and changed the world 😢❤❤
FOUR BRAVE MEN!!
It is breath. We were. We are. And here we are. Still. Inhale. And another breath and we continue. It's okay. One more breath. We'll be free. Thank you for your voice.

I was to young to understand these deaths 🙏 Always prayers for these beautiful men .
I do remember the night John Jr. Plane went down. All of Cape Cod remembers. Rip John Jr.🙏
Always have loved this song...some stupid shit going on in this world...RIP Gentleman.
I've always loved this song since I was a kid. Thanks for posting this. Heard this on the radio Monday.
This is a very nicely done video
LIVING INTO A HARD HATES WORLD'S WITH REALLY BAD PEOPLE'S😢THIS SONGS REALLY TOLD THE TRUTH ABOUT GREAT PEOPLE THAT DIED YOUNG PERIOD😅
This song always moves me to tears. Love your moving video tribute to these four men: Abraham Lincoln and John Kennedy, two of our best USA presidents, and Marting Luther King and Bobby Kennedy, two great men and political advocates. These four men make me proud to be an American and make George Bush seem like such a joke! He doesn't even come close to the greatness of these men! Thank you for posting.
George Bush is trash in comparison to these 4 men of class and stature. President Kennedy was best President ever!
I agree I could mention another loser but,I better not I think you know who I mean! Have a great day 😀
Beautiful words for 4 great men who make me proud to be an American
@@carmenvallone3458
Trump?
@@carmenvallone3458 creepy joe
Met Dion one night at a club ,he said he had a new song coming out .what a comeback Bronx boy
I'm not young anymore. Just want to live before I die. In other words live to help freedom. It's a useless game if fools right now. What right does it have to deny anyone an open door?
but it seems the good, they die young...and my Dad died less than 6 months after JFK of cancer, he was a good man too :( this song still brings tears to my eyes*
My God, what has happened to our political leaders of today
Yes what has happened .
I was three when JFK was taken from us, but learned a lot about him. When MLK & RFK were both taken from us within 2 months...I was eight, but I felt it. Still feel and remember to this day.
I was eight also first and only time I saw my father cry.😢my gramma cried for a long time.
IS AMERICA WEEPING.!? YET.! THERE'S JUSTICE IN INJUSTICES.!.
Nearly brought tears to my eyes, thank you! There are just no words, thank you again for making such a deep tribute. :D
A haunting reminder of the price people pay for the freedom we enjoy today.......don't take it for granted...support Ukraine.
This man was one of if not the greatest President we have had
Thankful we had them in our lifes,not perfect but goodness for us as a,people and i miss john Kennedy Jr myself as our Birthdays are the same day and i saw,him as a beam of light for America 🇺🇸 💙 He had great potential and matured into such a great man
Take a lesson from the best of the best.!!🇺🇸♥️🇺🇸♥️🇺🇸♥️🇺🇸♥️🇺🇸♥️🤗💙😊💕🌎
Love this song
we love Aussies too.
Great Steve Great!
John John's Salute always Gets to Me
All three of these American legendary leaders are smiling down on this nation right now.
2022 they may not be smiling right now frowning from how far we fallen into the pits of democracy failure and traitorous rules and regulations.

God Bless their souls and who they left behind...RFK Jr...campaigning in their honor. Please nominate him for US President...write his name in.
🇺🇸🦅
Perfect
sweet,sweet!!!
❤❤
Makes one wonder how we would be if they weren't taken from us and how our lives would be today?
Caroline Kennedy for US Senate NY, yeah!
Another thing about the passing of time. I remember when Jackie Kennedy Onassis passed away from cancer at age 64 in 1994, it was in the news quite a bit. A few days ago Jackie's daughter Caroline Kennedy just turned 65.
Yes !!!!!
HOW ABOUT CAROLINE KENNEDY
FOR PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES
SHE WOULD FOLLOW IN HER FATHERS
FOOTSTEPS!!!!? JEFFREY S. SIMON
BOSTON
There was a recitation with this playing in background. Anyone remember the name?
Love to hear it. Had Dr King and president Kennedy talking too.
"Didn't you love the things they stood for"? RFK Jr is standing for these things to this very day! Please nominate him for 2024 election race. He is being censored, heavily. Please pray for him. ❤
RFK, yes. Not at all certainly Jr.
