President John F. Kennedy's Commencement Address at Yale University, June 11, 1962

Commencement Address at Yale University.
''It might be said now that I have the best of both worlds, a Harvard education and a Yale degree.
I am particularly glad to become a Yale man because as I think about my troubles, I find that a lot of them have come from other Yale men.''
''It is true—and of high importance—that the prosperity of this country depends on the assurance that all major elements within it will live up to their responsibilities. If business were to neglect its obligations to the public, if labor were blind to all public responsibility, above all, if government were to abandon its obvious—and statutory—duty of watchful concern for our economic health-if any of these things should happen, then confidence might well be weakened and the danger of stagnation would increase. This is the true issue of confidence.'' If there is any current trend toward meeting present problems with old cliches, this is the moment to stop it—before it lands us all in a bog of sterile acrimony.''

"I find that alot of my troubles have come from other Yale men.........." both prophetically prescient and a great understatement. Yale = skull & bones society. Bush Sr. is a Yale, S & B man. B Sr. also, supervised one of the shooting teams that shot JFK. The Last American Hero.
