Trump is a nacissistic, corrupt, misogynist with a penchant for tantrums who seeks power only to preen his collosal ego and whips white nationalist fever to surf into his Neronic pipe-dreams.

@@malcolmredgrove1151 So true, Malcolm. When you study JFK in detail, and then look at him from far above, the overview is of a guy who became president not because he wanted to, but because his brother died after which his father looked at him and said, "You're it". The guy wanted to be a writer or a professor. And not to make money. So when you see him thrust to the presidency by the father--who transferred his lust for power onto his sons--you see a president who's path and character differed from most others. I think what he enjoyed most was when the writer part of him emerged during major speeches, especially the June, 1963 American University address.

*Zachariah Wilburn* __Unlike in the rest of the free world ....(although Sanders admittedly seems somewhat inadequate), a West European type social democrat will never ever get a look in, in Uncle Sam's one party state , where since the coup of '63 ,it never makes much difference which of the two allowed political parties occupies the White House . Both allowed parties eventually take their marching orders from the military industrial complex and other powerful unelected organizations.......While through relentless propaganda the U.S. electorate was made to distrust social democrats ,who were supposed to be "communists in disguise"... While in U.S. election circuses, where "Our Fine Military" always gets centre stage acknowledgement, such bullshit isn't necessary in most European elections , where it would cause major controversy.... Since it's understood that such obvious military gloryfication is the privilege of military regimes. Those west European nations that are govorned by social democrats or coalitions which include them, have all the rampant consumerism ,free market and media like in Uncle Sam's paradise....only without the nasty cut throat capitalist deregulation side effects, like crumbling infrastructure , overcrowded prisons, monthly mass shootings, foodstamps for the growing number of poor , subsidising Wallstreet bankers when they screw things up. While "Our Fine Military" is allowed by the two allowed parties to grab their annual biggest percentage from the people's treasury without ever having to offer an independent audit , also usually the privilege of military regimes.... No surprise Kennedy got removed because he had his own ideas about such matters. Since then no administration dared to stand in the way of the Pentagon conglomerate, knowing the concequences such 'folly' would bring ...... All with "god's blessings" ofcourse....

I don’t think the President thought I’d do it, but I’m ashamed to say that I did. It was a pathetic, sordid scene, and I can hardly bear to think about it.

These are brilliant, intelligent, off-the-cuff responses delivered with self-assurance and wit by JFK. The likes of which we did not see in recent times. I wish such practices had continued to the present day. Those in authority should ensure that these clips are preserved ( if possible) in HD form for posterity. The fuzziness and blurred nature of the pictures take away a lot of viewing pleasure from the viewer. Just a thought from Sri Lanka.

Trump is doing. His son was a very good friend of Pres. Trump before he became Pres. and encouraged him to run for Pres.....Jr. liked Pres. Trump.

I'd take him over any President since then .

Dee Phillips JFK was a unique individual....handsome , articulate, charismatic, intelligent but also flawed ....as are all human beings ! Sometimes we tend to look back on those years through “ rose colored glasses” ! It was a very different time in history & the political climate was no way near as perverse as it is now ( almost 60 yrs. ago) ! The press is much more acerbic & aggressive....showing less respect for the President & the Office . JFK’s sexual dalliances would probably be reported , today.....but were kept a secret during his time in office ! He was NOT a perfect man ....but then who is ! Just a reflection on the difference in the times !

@@soleilsoleil8287 Get off your silly conspiracist propaganda bullshit Lee Harvey Oswald murdered Kennedy and no one else was involved. Johnson didn't even run for a second term, which I believe was the only time in history that happened. They were all scheduled to sleep over at the LBJ ranch that night. He wrote letters of condolence to the children, and when he first appeared before Congress, he said he would give all he had to not be there. He had absolutely nothing do with the assassination.

A virtuous soul is a rich and beautiful phrase sir. We need to revive teaching of virtues, civic, and religious. The natural virtues I was taught are- prudence, justness, courage-fortitude, and patience. The cardinal, supernatural virtues are faith, hope, and charity-love. I am returning to school, at 67, to teach these, and the history of truth and philosophy to our bereft young people. In past times we took these virtues as given, for granted if you will. They were taught, preached, and modelled. They have been overtaken by their opposites, the vices. I even at this late date want to be part of rebuilding the soul of our Nation.

“Of the multitude who throughout history have spoken for human dignity in times of great suffering and loss,” Mr. Kennedy declared, “no voice is more compelling than that of “Anne Frank.” He said that “her humor, her humanity and her hope illuminate the hearts of men heavily clouded by the apparent willingness of those who seek power and domain over the soul of man to again deprive people of the right to live in peace, tolerance and freedom.”
