  • @JnthnHuerta I balk because a defeated attitude does nothing to serve eliminate what Kennedy is speaking about, because - as it's been said - if you aren't part of the solution, that being the people striving to make gentle the life of this world, you're part of the problem.

  • @Seele1 You can balk all you like, If it weren't true, then we'd all stop killing ourselves. Doesn't mean I wouldn't like for people to change, or that I promote violence. I am simply accepting the fact that there will always be war, hate, fear, and violence.

  • @JnthnHuerta Your's is a statement RFK would have balked at. 

  • It is in our nature to destroy ourselves. It's inevitable.

  • A triumph of public speaking. But surely its a disgrace that even 40 years later this speech is still as relevant today as it was when Kennedy spoke on that warm April day

  • @EddBSmith im a mexican we need this kind of presidents other wise we will be gone in the next 20 years

  • @EddBSmith you know people are just being people now days nobody cares about eachother

    

  • Thanks for uploading this amazing speech in full!
