“When Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis sought the perfect location for the JFK presidential library, she looked to the sea that President Kennedy loved so well. This site on Dorchester Bay encompasses a 9.5 acre park, landscaped with pine trees, shrubs, and wild roses reminiscent of the Cape Cod landscape familiar to President Kennedy.” John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum
“Poetry and Power” – The Inaugural Address of John F Kennedy
“Assuming office in the midst of the Cold War, JFK understood that his inaugural address would have to instill confidence at home and respect abroad. He believed that democracy thrives only when citizens contribute their talents to the common good, and that is up to leaders to inspire citizens to acts of sacrifice. And when he exhorted people to “ask not what your country can do for you,” he appealed to their noblest instincts, voice a message that Americans were eager to hear.
The speech was crafted by JFK and Theodore C. Sorensen, one of Kennedy’s closest advisers. With a longstanding working relationship dating from JFK’s days in the Senate, Kennedy and Sorensen shared a unique synchronization in their way of thinking. The inaugural address and other hallmark Kennedy speeches were the products of that historic collaboration of two men who believed in the power of words.” John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum
“ ’The president, Kennedy believed, “must serve as a catalyst, an energizer, the defender of the publice good against all the narrow private interests which operate in our society.’ ”
Profile in Courage Award created in 1989 by the John F. Kennedy Library Foundation to “honor the president’s courage by contemporary elected officials. The silver lantern, which represents a beacon of hope, was designed by Edwin Schlossberg and made by Tiffany & Company. It is presented annually, on or near May 29, in celebration of President Kennedy’s birthday.”

U.S. Flag from PT 109, replaced July 1943, the month before the boat was sunk.
“This wind-tattered flag, replaced by a new one shortly before PT 109 was sunk, is one of the few physical remnants from the boat that still exisits.”
PT109 was commanded by John F. Kennedy during World War II. He helped save his crew after the boat sank and became a war hero from his actions.
“John F. Kennedy Becomes The 35th President of the United States
John F. Kennedy was sworn in as the 35th president on January 20, 1961. In his inaugural speech he spoke of the need for all Americans to be active citizens. Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country, he said.
The White House also seemed like a fun place because of the Kennedys’ two young children, Caroline and John-John. There was a pre-school, a swimming pool, and a tree-house outside on the White House lawn. President Kennedy was probably the busiest man in the country, but he still found time to laugh and play with his children.
One of the first things President Kennedy did was to create the Peace Corps. President Kennedy was also eager for the United States to lead the way in exploring space.
President Kennedy had to deal with many serious problems here in the United States. The biggest problem of all was racial discrimination.
Martin Luther King Jr. was one of the famous leaders of the movement for civil rights. Many civil rights leaders didn’t think President Kennedy was supportive enough of their efforts. The President believed that holding public protests would only anger many white people and make it even more difficult to convince the members of Congress who didn't agree with him to pass civil rights laws. By June 11, 1963, however, President Kennedy decided that the time had come to take stronger action to help the civil rights struggle. He proposed a new Civil Rights bill to the Congress, and he went on television asking Americans to end racism. One hundred years of delay have passed since President Lincoln freed the slaves, yet their heirs, their grandsons, are not fully free, he said. This Nation was founded by men of many nations and backgrounds…[and] on the principle that all men are created equal. President Kennedy made it clear that all Americans, regardless of their skin color, should enjoy a good and happy life in the United States. “

[한국어 정보]
미국 역사상 최연소 대통령이자 비운의 대통령이었던 존F.케네디를 만나러 갔다. 1917년 매사추세츠 브루클린에서 태어난 존F.케네디는 1960년 당시 뉴프론티어를 외치며 닉슨을 근소한 표 차이로 이기고 제35대 대통령으로 취임했다.“의료보험 혜택을 받지 못하는 노인들과, 제대로 된 집을 갖지 못한 가족들, 학교를 다니지 못하는 아이들의 부모들 모두는 이제 변화의 시기가 왔음을 잘 알 수 있을 것입니다.“ 이곳은 케네디 대통령이 직무하던 백악관의 모습을 그대로 재현해 놓았다. ‘신개척자 정신은 약속이 아닌 일련의 도전’이라고 말했던 케네디의 숨결이 가까이서 느껴진다. 박물관 홍보담당자가 소개해 줄 물건이 있다고 한다. 케네디가 2차세계대전 당시 해군으로 참전했을 때, 일본군으로부터 부대원들과 케네디 자신을 구해 준 소중한 물건이라고 한다. “존F.케네디는 그 섬에 있는 코코넛을 따서 거기에 도움을 요청하는 메시지를 새겨 넣었습니다. 여기 보면 이렇게 쓰여 있지요. ‘나우루섬, 11명 생존, 원주민이 우리의 위치를 알고 있음.’ 그는 이 코코넛을 섬사람들에게 주었고, 섬 주민은 이 메시지가 적힌 코코넛을 들고 가서 도움을 요청할 수 있었습니다. 결국 이들은 모두 구조되었죠. 그 후 존F.케네디는 미국의 대통령이 되었습니다.“ 아일랜드계 혈통으로 미국 대통령 중 유일하게 가톨릭 신자였던 케네디. 거센 견제 속에서도 도전과 개척 정신을 잃지 않았다. 1963년에 암살을 당하기까지 2년의 짧은 임기 동안이었지만 사회정의와 시민들의 권리를 위해 헌신을 다했던 케네디. 그의 끝나지 않는 도전은 계속될 것이다.

America went to meet President John F. Kennedy was the youngest president in the history of clearing interest. John F. Kennedy was born in 1917 in Brooklyn, Massachusetts is shouting at the time of the 1960 New Frontiers Nixon narrowly won the votes were sworn in as 35th president, and the elderly do not receive health insurance, the family did not have a proper house , parents of all the children who attend the school will now be able to appreciate the wateum a time of change. This is literally laid to reproduce the look of the White House, President Kennedy was official. Kennedy felt the breath up close said it new pioneer spirit is a series of challenges, not promises. The thing is that the museum publicist to refer. When Kennedy was a World War II Navy veteran, called semi precious things saved from the Japanese troops and Kennedy himself. John F. Kennedy put inscribed a message asking for help in there after a coconut in the island. So look here itjiyo written. Nauru Island, 11 people survived, Aboriginal people that know our position. He gave the people the coconut island to island residents could go and ask for help, holding a coconut on it this message. Eventually, it became both structures. After John F. Kennedy became president of the United States. The only Irish descent in the United States during President Kennedy was Catholic. Despite strong checks it did not lose the challenge and pioneering spirit. Vulnerable to assassination in 1963, but during the short term of two years that Kennedy is a commitment to social justice and civil rights. His endless challenges will continue.

JFK Presidential Library and Museum - Boston, MA
The JFK Library has a lot of great historical recordings - some big like the Cuban Missile Crisis and some smaller - did you know that Jackie Kennedy sounded like Marilyn Monroe? They have audio of an interview with Jackie at the Library and she had that same soft voice. Who knew?
An interesting historical collection with a ton of memorabilia and great archival footage of the Cuban Missile Crisis. Love the building too!
