Assignment: Due 12/17 Choose a passage from JFK, Reagan, or Obama, write it out and explain what it means.
The Portion of Text I chose was from President Kennedy's Inauguration speech since no specific choice pertaining to the three presidents were given
"Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, to assure the survival and the success of liberty. This we pledge and more."
To me JFk was saying during this portion of the speech that he has plans for stronger america. He wants everyone to know that when it comes to Americas core which is liberty and freedom for all that he and America would go to any means to preserve these principles set down by our founding fathers. This was one of my favorite inaugural speeches and one of the most powerful in my opinion.
