      @@reddrago8274 The Kennedys are a bunch of entitled drunks and womanizers. Edward Kennedy should have gone to prison for hit and run involving death. You and I would have. Old man Joe Kennedy flaunted his mistress, Gloria Swanson, in public, was a bootlegger, and a securities speculator. He was a defeatist during WW2.

      I think the inaugural ceremony did well as far as indicating that be America was young and strong and as the speech mentioned, we can are aware of our heritage as a melting pot. Future events led to other historical reminiscing, and those years left an enduring impression on those who lived them, and also mass media was being employed as never before. Later events have had a tendency to obscure the historical facts in a certain way,, but that causes more debate, one of the more critical be points of the 1960 election.

    At age 7 during the month of May 1968, I had a lengthy conversation with Chief Justice Earl Warren along with my father, about where he could buy a good ice cream cone after the Oroville Dam Dedication Ceremony. He figured a young boy like me would know. Later that same month I shook hands with RFK at a campaign stop in Yuba City, CA ...Great memories for me as you would imagine. ♥️✌🦅

    Actually McKinley was the third president to be assassinated, and Kennedy the fourth. The first was Lincoln; the second was Garfield (in 1881). You are right however in that Teddy Roosevelt was the youngest president (at 42) to hold the office upon McKinley's assassination. JFK was 43 when elected and inaugurated.

      It is interesting to note that Teddy Roosevelt almost became the 4th President to be assassinated. Like Reagan, he was shot on the way to giving a speech. In spite of being wounded, I believe Teddy went on to give his speech anyway.

For Example, take a walk down the streets of L.A. at that time period, the streets were cleaner, people dressed up more and were classier, and blacks and Latinos were not as homeless as they are today, for Gay population, AIDS didn't exist yet, so it probably was better in some ways for them too.
