  1. A quotation from John Kennedy

       But I tell you the New Frontier is here, whether we seek it or not. Beyond that frontier are the uncharted areas of science and space, unsolved problems of peace and war, unconquered pockets of ignorance and prejudice, unanswered questions of poverty and surplus. It would be easier to shrink back from that frontier, to look to the safe mediocrity of the past, to be lulled by good intentions and high rhetoric — and those who prefer that course should not cast their votes for me, regardless of party.
       But I believe the times demand new invention, innovation, imagination, decision. I am asking each of you to be pioneers on that New Frontier. My call is to the young in heart, regardless of age — to all who respond to the Scriptural call: “Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed.”
       For courage — not complacency — is our need today — leadership — not salesmanship. And the only valid test of leadership is the ability to lead, and lead vigorously.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) American politician, author, journalist, US President (1961–63)
    Speech (1960-07-15), “The New Frontier,” Presidential Nomination Acceptance Speech, Democratic National Convention, Memorial Coliseum, Los Angeles

  3. A quotation from John Kennedy

    Woodrow Wilson’s New Freedom promised our nation a new political and economic framework. Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal promised security and succor to those in need. But the New Frontier of which I speak is not a set of promises — it is a set of challenges. It sums up not what I intend to offer the American people, but what I intend to ask of them. It appeals to their pride, not to their pocketbook — it holds out the promise of more sacrifice instead of more security.

  7. A quotation from John F. Kennedy

       Some would say that those struggles are all over — that all the horizons have been explored — that all the battles have been won — that there is no longer an American frontier.
       But I trust that no one in this assemblage would agree with that sentiment. For the problems are not all solved and the battles are not all won. And we stand today on the edge of a new frontier — the frontier of the Nineteen Sixties — the frontier of unknown opportunities and perils — the frontier of unfulfilled hopes and threats.

  11. This week brought an even bigger one: How could it possibly stay open?
    In a pair of rulings today, a federal judge dealt 2 blows to #Trump’s stewardship of the #KennedyCenter, which he took over last year∶ US District Judge Christopher Cooper ordered the removal within 2 weeks of Trump’s name from the institution, which #Congress established as a living memorial to President #JohnFKennedy in 1964, & he partially granted a preliminary injunction, saying that the center had to halt plans to close.

  13. Judge Orders #Trump Name Off #KennedyCenter, & He Throws A Tantrum

    Judge Christopher R. Cooper, of the Federal District Court in Washington, determined that the board’s decision to add Trump’s name to the #KennedyCenter violated a #law passed by #Congress in 1964 that made “crystal clear” the institution was to be named for former President #JohnFKennedy.

    “Congress gave the Kennedy Center its name, & only Congress can change it,” the judge wrote in a 94-page opinion.

  23. As a US representative, Ford was a member of the #WarrenCommission, which investigated the #assassination of President #JohnFKennedy. The experience affected him profoundly. During a site visit to the Texas School Book Depository, the members of the committee took a rifle similar to the one used by Lee Harvey Oswald & looked through its scope at the traffic below. “Kennedy had been my friend,” Ford later recalled. “The thought we were reconstructing his assassination sent a chill down my spine.”

  24. @georgetakei Patrick Kennedy was the only surviving son of #immigrants from #Ireland and first in the #UnitedStates political ‘#Kennedy dynasty’ to receive a formal #education.

    His grandson #JohnFKennedy was one of the most iconic Presidents in #USpol #history.

    His great-grandson is #antivaxxer and #corrupt ‘Merchant of Doubt’ #RFKjr. In *his* case, the saying “Shirtsleeves to shirtsleeves in three generations” became “Shirtsleeves to dirtbag in three generations”!
