- Presidential candidate John F. Kennedy insists there is no conflict between his faith and running for president, saying the "constitution and my conscience happen to be in very close harmony" on the October 30, 1960 edition of Face the Nation. Kennedy would win the election in November. (CBS NEWS)
I love listening to JFK speak. So polished and articulate.
But his campaign found his accent was actually popular in the important primary stat of Wisconsin. It intrigued voters there, so JFK decided to play it up.
You're charmed by people.
One of the greatest speakers in American history.
It's next level ! It's beautiful manly and all in it
He always answered criticism of his Catholic faith with candor, and with honesty!!!!
Christians should not be fighting and killing one another. Who promotes this?
Yes he did Jay and he was always very good at it and that made him the most interesting president to watch to this very date.

BLAZE STARR - - The celebrated stripper told People magazine in 1989 that she had a brief affair with Kennedy before he became President which she’d hoped to continue once he was elected. The famed burlesque dancer is said to have been disappointed when the Cuban Missile Crisis got in the way of her dalliance with the President in the Lincoln Room.
The pair first met in 1954 when JFK, then a Congressman, would visit her Maryland strip club, Crossroads.
In an interview in 1989, Starr described Kennedy as “very quick and very wild,” adding “he knew exactly what he was doing with girls, so it didn’t take him long. No, that bad back didn’t faze him.”
Kennedy was always well versed....i like his stance on the church vs state.
Oh how I wish we had leaders like this in America today in 2020.
Wow!! he was very decisive here he handled himself like a champ with strength and courage.
How smooth he was on Television, no wonder the press loved him!!!!
❤
This was my hero when I was 9 years old. I took an interest in current affairs. I was devastated when he was murdered.
for me it was Bobby when i was a teenager
@@cynthiabrown4918 Same with me. I was a teenager when Robert Kennedy was killed. He would've been the president in 1968, if he'd lived. I thought he'd be president, run again in 1972, I'd been old enough to have voted then. I never thought Nixon would be president.
@Shreya Singh ..With all that's going on now I wish people would look back to how Kennedy spoke and his leadership. Don't let anyone tell you that this country isn't greatl.. This country has some problems but I think it's the best one in the world.
@@maxinefreeman8858 Its not at all certain RFK would have been president if he'd lived, since he faced an uphill battle against the establishment-backed Hubert Humphrey (who was well ahead in delegates) at the 1968 Democratic convention, and the embittered Gene McCarthy would never have thrown his delegates to Bobby to put him over the top. However, if he had somehow managed to capture the nomination, I have little doubt he would have beaten Nixon handily in the general election, as he would have picked up much of the Wallace vote. But to state that RFK had it virtually wrapped up until a bullet felled him in the Ambassador Hotel is sheer mythology, just like all the fantasies surrounding Camelot.
They can’t teach charisma and that method of speaking in a textbook... leaders keep watching the greats speak ... it really helps
He had his share of human failings..like us all...but seemed to be a brighter light for the future of this country and the world...he showed great restraint in the October Crisis over the missles in Cuba and diplomatically avoided a nuclear confrontation...Kruschev also displayed great leadership on the other side....it was a give and take on both sides,and this world is still intact....Thank you,God.
He wouldn't believe these past 30 years of American history.
I agree that both JFK and Khrushchev showed great statesmanship. BTW, some historians think that Khrushchev ultimately was deposed shortly after the crisis in 1964 because he looked weak to the Soviet military. When you read how the US generals (and the Soviets) were chomping at the bit to go to war, which would have very likely resulted in full scale nuclear Armageddon, it's amazing how JFK stood his ground and I hate to think what Nixon would have done in that situation.
But even more so, the biggest hero IMO is the Soviet commander of a nuclear submarine. This is a little known story documented in Daniel Ellsberg's fascinating book: The Doomsday Machine: Confessions of a Nuclear War Planner. During the blockade a US destroyer accidentally dropped depth charges on a Soviet sub. The destroyer thought they were using training depth charges that would scare off the sub but do no damage but they accidentally used real depth charges and the sub was at real risk of sinking. The captain of the sub had clear orders that in such a situation where he was at risk of losing his boat he was to use tactical nuclear weapons in response. He chose to disobey doctrine in spite of the political officer threatening him that he must retaliate. If that Captain hadn't listened to his conscience and common sense a full scale nuclear war could have easily broken out. It shows that there can be good men even in the most evil organizations.
He didn't lead a Christian life at all.😂
He handled himself brilliantly with this panel.
He was so highly intelligent. Words flowed from him like water.
so bright, articulate, wish he was still around, so tragic we lost him so young
So "young", at 46.😂😂
God we need a real president. He was the last one who actually had a true conviction about the constitution, and what is in the public (not corporate, not military) interest.
im scottish this man is the greatest such a loss to the world
He was a great loss to our nation! Check out Bobby Kennedy's speeches! We, Americans, were robbed with his assassination as well.
@@starr234 agreed. it's all what if's and we the working class suffer not the wealthy. if they had lived it would've been better i have no doubt.
I’m Scottish as well R.I.P JFK
This man was a class act. Best president we've ever had in my opinion.
I agree! 💯🎯
@@LuzMaria95 Pamela Turnure
First Lady Jackie Kennedy’s press secretary Pamela Turnure is also rumored to have had a quick romance with her boss’s husband, the alleged affair coming to light in the book “The Kennedy Half-Century” by Larry J. Sabato.
Turnure, who is said to have had a remarkable resemblance to Jackie, began a two-year affair with JFK in 1961 when she was aged 21. JFK is even believed to have encouraged his wife to hire her after she worked as his own secretary when he was a Senator.
A class act perhaps but no historian would agree with your hyperbolic assessment.
@@owlcowl they don't have to...that's why I said "in my opinion"
@@championgreen4963 oh sure, that's understood. It's your opinion, just as it's mine that your appraisal is unsupportable by the factual record (and I would certainty have voted for Kennedy over Nixon in 1960). Placing JFK in the company of Lincoln or FDR is simply ludicrous, IMO. Of course, it's also a matter of perspective - comparing him to G W Bush or Donald Trump....well that casts a much more favorable light.
💗💗miss this beautiful man
Do not pray for easy lives, my friends, pray to be stronger men
This is a very good and important video. President Kennedy states the importance of maintaining the Government separate from a National Religion.
I like his cheeky smile when he says, if im elected. lol The pause and self thought. Priceless. Greatest man ever, 2nd bobby
If he is the greatest then speak out against the Mossad and their American apparatus who murdered him and covered it up
JFK needed the goat IKE during the Cuban missile crisis. Listen to the calls on CZcams
JFK had every right to withhold bombing Cuba because the CIAs Dulles and General Cabal LIED to him. They told him US forces would not need to get involved and the Cuban people would use up once the anti-castro force hit the beaches. It did not happen. JFK wax in a no win situation. The CIA was a government within a government. The upper echelons of the Government in that day were warmongering and aggressive. Kennedy changed that and his actions cam easily be seen in retrospect as 100% correct.
@@nativeamerican8207 As a Scotsman I hear what your saying. There's so many supposed parties involved it's hard to decide. But I believe that link you mention is a very likely party. Especially the permindex link.
@@handsomestranger8211 thank you. If you read Dope, Inc 1978, I conclude Permindex was a Mossad operation with a CIA and fascist front. That is their typical modus operandi to work "from the shadows" and have a front cover. The Mossad, like the CIA, has done many criminal acts.
But I don't see a lot of Israeli traitors like we do American traitors. LBJ, Hoover, Angleton, David Phillips, and Howard Hunt, were traitors to the American Repiblic they had sworn allegiance to and some worked with the Mossad and/or organized crime.
What happened in 1963 with JFK was a coup with a splendid cover-up the likes of
such deception unparalleled in my lifetime until the controlled demolition of Tower 7 during 9/11 and recently the Russian Hoax against Trump and Putin
I always felt that If he were here with us, the Earth’s situation would be completely in a different direction now…
I always felt the same way,that had he been allowed to live, the world would have been on a much better path.
And this man died I don't believe this country was ever the same
A truly great president
Hardly, but most historians consider only Washington, Lincoln & FDR to have been great presidents. Kennedys actual record of accomplishments was pretty thin, but he was an inspiring speaker. Certainly he wasn't among our worst presidents, like several we've been saddled with since then.
You can tell, by this point in the Campaign, he was getting tired of answering the questions about his beliefs, but you would never know it with the way he handled the questions.
Damm I love this president what a terrible lost when we lost him
And he meant every word he said. Candidates who are direct and honest about where they stand on issues and demonstrate their word in office tend to be the best leaders.
I am not a USA citizin but i want to say That I wish as many others that USA get a strong Presedent who can make peace in the world..
Thank you. Very interesting...
Real personality in all respects!!
Priscilla Wear
Jackie Kennedy was also aware of her husband's alleged affair with White House Staff member Priscilla Wear. According to Kennedy press aide Barbara Gamarekian, Jackie stated, “This is the girl that’s sleeping with my husband” while speaking in French to a Paris-Match reporter.
The White House secretary was nicknamed “Fiddle," which she was referred to as when her alleged affair is discussed. Speculation of her involvement with JFK has been widely circulated in biographies by the likes of Larry Sabato and Seymour Hersh.
God bless our president JFK..
he was such a divine man
Those who hold power are always afraid to lose It this is true for all churches
Religious freedom is the great American spirit.
He didn't lead a Christian life at all.😂

Theres a man the world could do with today....rest well Mr president.
Wow. Talk about statesmanship.
I definitely remember JFK saying these things. It was a great time in America.
very interesting video!
JFK will always be my favorite President. The world would have been a much better place if he hadn't been taken from us.
So true and also I his brother had not been killed as well, we lost the best and the brightest of that generation. Which is part of my generation, I was 18 when JFK was killed and living in my native Denmark.
He’s the best President that we ever had, smart, articulate, very informed, it’s way ahead of everybody, the media and the rest.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder. JFK was definitely smart, articulate & charming, and a phenomenally gifted tv performer, but that doesnt mean he was a great president. His actual legacy of accomplishment was rather meager, altho he had one great foreign policy triumph, the atmospheric test ban treaty. The myth that he was a great liberal reformer domestically will not survive the merest familiarity with the historical record. Personally, I think he was a rather mediocre president. That doesnt mean he wasnt the better choice against Nixon in 1960, and I would have voted for him (as my parents did), but we must avoid being seduced by personal charisma when the facts contradict our fantasies.
@@owlcowlWell at least he was well spoken he was great person.
Sincerity
Great speaker 🔊
Religion and state do not mix, let’s keep them separate.

Such a powerful response, I ❤ it.
Yes! Greatness emanates from this man. What else could we ask for in a man to run the affairs of our government, devoted to duty that he understood , and was elected to do. I believe that he will be back, by God's hand, to face down the evil ones that stole his life, and caused so much heartache and destabilizing in the world.🙏🌈

John Fitzgerald Kennedy (Brookline, Massachusetts; 29 de mayo de 1917-Dallas, Texas; 22 de noviembre de 1963) fue un político y diplomático estadounidense que se desempeñó como el trigésimo quinto presidente de los Estados Unidos. También fue conocido como Jack por sus amigos o por su sobrenombre JFK.
There was a President!!!!!
based Kennedy, keeping religion out of government, just like the founding fathers wanted.
protecting our sacred secular constitution
Based
A good man.and father and president God bless you and your family always
I think it's ridiculous to make being of the Catholic faith an issue while being president
Of course its riduculous but it was an issue back then, just as it would have been for a Jewish candidate. Even today, the majority of Americans would never vote for a Muslim president, regardless of politics. Much less are we ready to elect an openly atheist president, god forbid!
That doesn't reflect very well on your judgment, since no president since Kennedy (and there have been 9 presidents since Kennedy) has used a nuclear weapon.
Kennedy was well real. Seems like he read every paper he could get.
Gunilla Von Post
Swedish socialite Gunilla Von Post 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.
@@jb-vb8un He didn't lead a Christian life at all.😂 Always on the lookout to lure women.
Genius,
Romans 1:8
First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.
Romans 1:8 is now my next favorite verse in the Scriptures love to see the word faith written down in it as well. As God revealed to Martin Luther long ago in the 1500s the just shall live by faith we need faith indeed these days amen to it.
I am.frm.malaysia. l I've to.listen to his speech. Intelligent and smart. Really good personality. He talk sense unlike Donald trump.
The separation of church and state: Diversity in the freedom of expression leads to a unity in the respect for the soul in all of us. Equality is a matter of mutual respect. Bravo, Sir.
Ellen Rometsch
The 27-year-old German prostitute was deported under the orders of Robert Kennedy because of the stories she could reveal about his brother’s exploits.
The Elizabeth Taylor look-alike is rumored to have attended naked pool parties at the White House in the spring of 1963. Legend also tells it that on more than one occasion, Rometsch came to the White House explicitly to have sex with the president.
All who wish to Live in Truth and Spirit without separation and dissonance, follow me.

God, articulate, honest, to the point, smart, well intended, inspiring, a true leader. None after that. Who before? Really? Besides our country's founders? Eisenhower?
What if the assassination of Jack can be never happened what would have happened that what if his brother Robert was never assassinated either it's only we can change history
Back when a catholic being president was a big deal
religious issue was big matter in the election of 1960
This man's wit is too quick for me to handle.
Pure music to my ears!
Actress Angie Dickinson also has crooner Frank Sinatra to blame for introducing her to John F. Kennedy.
Having met at a party given by Kennedy’s sister Pat in Santa Monica before the 1960 Democratic convention, Dickinson went on to join the presidential campaign.
In his novel "American Adulterer," author Jed Mercurio says Dickinson complained that Kennedy couldn't last very long in bed.

one of his more glorious conquests was screen legend Marlene Dietrich, whom he romanced after inviting her to the White House in 1962. As Marlene is quoted as saying in Charlotte Chandler‘s new book, Marlene:
“I don’t remember most of what happened because it was all so quick,” the screen goddess went on.
“Afterward, I remember saying, ‘Please don’t muss my hair.’ ‘I had a show to do later that night.
“I thought he was even faster than his father,” continued Marlene, amazed.
“He seemed satisfied. Maybe much of it happened in his mind before he got there.”
@@jb-vb8un I presume you are posting this because you are indeed referring to his conscious in said speech!

Mary Pinchot Meyer was the sister-in-law of legendary Washington Post editor Ben Bradlee and after Monroe is probably the most high-profile of Kennedy’s affairs. She died in tragic and unexplained circumstances a year after Kennedy’s own assassination which has led to Kennedy conspiracy theory lovers believing her death to have been part of a giant cover-up.
Friends since a prep school dance in 1938, her first marriage to a CIA agent and her sister’s marriage to Bradlee placed her in Kennedy’s inner circles and she was a frequent visitor to the White House.
Meyer was murdered in Georgetown in 1964, two years after the tragic death of Monroe, in an execution-style shooting that has never been resolved.
Meyer had her life and relationship with Kennedy chronicled in the book “A Very Private Woman” by Nina Burleigh.
I don't hold a different view.........😅
That's what is lacking with so many of the people running our country, no conscience.
I guess you could say he had a clear mind hahaha
He had a lot of respects towards other faith. He might have weakness and flaws but it does not mean the inner circle ppl in politics fbi CIA who disagreed with allow him to be assassinated. What happened to the usa was the results of killing the man who had mission to do utmost service to the ppl of usa. Sadly he was killed to ensure his policies will nt be implemented.

This is where I, as a Communist Republican, and as a political economist, strenuously contest the framing of the economic debate. I happen to believe that the objective of a political economy is to build the estate and the population of each household to a point of prosperous stasis, so that we are frugal in the use of the physical resources of the earth and enable each person to achieve their spiritual calling without having to be overly concerned with the limits of physical production. In “Popular Capitalism”, I have shown that families, relieved from the pressures of poverty and the obsession with procreation, especially for the daughters, can easily keep each generation of an extended family at a population of 14 persons, especially when the overflow in one extended family is permitted to flow into another extended family with a deficit for that generation at the time of marriage. The extension of an extended family allows aunts and uncles, grandaunts and granduncles, great grandaunts and great granduncles, and various childless cousins, married or not, as well as grandparents and great grandparents, to nurture the youth in their extended families without adding progeny or additional progeny of their own. When women have a calling which by its practice or its preparation through schooling precludes active childbearing in the prime childbearing years, they are less likely to wed or to have a great number of progeny, yet they can still, when they have fulfilled their calling, nurture the children in an extended family, as well as be mentors of youth in a college of extended families. All that is needed is some proximity in cohabitation for nurturing, and some proximity in neighborhood for mentoring.
