Vietnam,A second term.Got thru the Cuban missle crisis.Castro a threat.Things got way out of hand after JFK was assasinated.Drugs and alot more violent.Lack of confidence and not style but substance like we don`t see today.That also might have been the other thing.
I think he forgot what he was going to say and just filled it in with that.
in another speech he said "we will achieve the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the moon and return him safely to the earth"
I think he wanted to say "and return him safely to the earth" but he was caught up in the applause and forgot what he was going to say. so he said," and do the other thing"
you r Right-things not thing, Well i have the answer- the other "thingS" were "CLIMB THE HIGHEST MOUNTAIN, FLY THE ATLANTIC, HAVE RICE PLAY TEXAS." omg it's the answer! we r only seeing the last 1/2 of the speech. If you watch the whole speech you understand.-- mystery solved--.

"climb the highest mountain, fly the Atlantic, have Rice play Texas."
i wanted to know - it always felt like we still had something to do
It's been almost 46 years since Kennedy gave this speech - more than 10 years before I was born. In that time, it seems that our leaders have all but forgotten how important it is to answer the important challenges that face us. It's a shame we have gone so long without his kind of leadership.
terrible he was asassinated becuas of the fact he was and still is the best president that ever took office.thats when you know all the evil sons a bitches are truly scared of people like him

I think he said the other things, meaning all the other things they were going to strive to do.
