<\/a><\/p>\nIt Is Time For This Country To Take A Leading Role<\/p>\n
John Fitzgerald Kennedy, 1917-1963<\/p>\n
“…the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans…”<\/p>\n
“Only an America which has fully educated its citizens is fully capable of tackling the complex problems…of the world in which we live.”<\/p>\n
“We face…a moral crisis as a country and as a people. It is time to act…above all, in our daily lives.”<\/p>\n
“All this will not be finished in the first 100 days…Nor even perhaps in our lifetime on this planet. But let us begin.”<\/p>\n
“The conquest of space must and will go ahead.”<\/p>\n
“We in this country, in this generation, are…the watchmen on the walls of world freedom.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
