November 7, 1960 - Remarks of Senator John F. Kennedy, Springfield, MA, City Hall

''What this country must do to maintain the peace, and maintain our position in the world, and I am very sure if we do not continue to drift and lie at anchor, only seeing the beginning of our difficulties, but if this country goes back to work again, if it moves with purpose, if it moves with perseverance, there is nothing it cannot do, nothing. I have traveled in 50 States in the last 12 months, every part of the United States, and I come back after that long trip from Alaska to Maine to Massachusetts, with more confidence that this country can meet its responsibilities in the sixties that the people of the United States want the truth. They are prepared to bear the burdens which go with the maintenance of freedom, and in my judgment it is the function of the next President of the United States.''
