"Listen to this incredible audio recording of a speech made by JFK before the American Newspaper Publishers Association where he warns the press [about Communism and] the secret societies that are the real power in global affairs." ***NOTE*** this is an edited version of the original speech, and some of the original meaning is skewed.

  • I must say, your back-ground music is a bit loud, maybe just let the great man spaeak?

  • tried to balance... didn't want the music too soft in the beginning.

    There are other (nonmusic) versions if you do a search :)

  • there is nothing wrong with government possessing secrets.

    The wrong comes when secrets possess government.

    "A government big enough to give you everything you want is a government big enough to take from you everything you have."

    ( Gerald R. Ford )

    Four hostile newspapers are more to be feared than a thousand bayonets.

    ( Napoleon Bonaparte )

    Ten peoplewho speak make more noise than ten thousand who are silent.

    ( Napoleon )

    What luck for rulers that men do not think

    ( Hitler)

  • Thank you Commander!

  • DISCLAIMER: this is an edited version. The original's emphasis is on the threat of Communism. This version is a remix that makes the speech more relevant to our modern dilemmas.

  • Why the awful background music?

  • This "music" makes it hard to hear the speech.

  • That isn't music.

  • in which way is taken out of context ?

  • This is totally taken out of context. Look it up. Think for yourselves...

  • Excellent!!!

    Gaby.
