What a speech and he is missed. He truly believed in liberty for all no matter what background they had.
We need a man like him today. Not just someone who believes in his ideals in blanket terms, but one who is willing to risk everything like he did to speak up for them.
You got joe biden, he's a catholic
I was but 12 when they took this great man's life and I wept. I knew the dynamics of what happened and knew that those who are evil took his life. Having said that, he has a son who is now ridding this country of that same evil. Praise the Lord God for giving us a President who cares about ALL Americans.
Barney Fife watch From JFK To 911 on RUclips.
I’m was not alive
He waa enlightened and ahead of his time.
He also refused to kiss the Popes ring; which was a big deal back them.
One special human being; one great leader.
How brilliant this speech was, it put any question of his allegiance to his religion to rest forever!!
Jfk is unreplaceable. There will never ever be someone has brilliant, as young, as handsome. I miss him so much even though I never knew him nor was I alive during the 20th century. But I miss him and Jackie and John jr. dearly and wish I will meet them one day in heaven!
The points made by Jack-Jack is what made him UNIQUE and a TRUE PATRIOT!
Wish we had more like JFK.
Never more needed than today.
@@ArnDab13 last I looked the USA has never been doing better
Kc C777 then you should make an appointment with an optometrist.
Trump is firm like Kennedy
Sp4ce we have Trump 2020. Q
I'm not democrat but I loved JFK
He was the last real democratic president we’ve had. All we have now is Marxist Tyranny.
We don't need to be told what he is saying. Just let him talk and listen to it
Stand Your Ground JFK..
He was a different breed ❤️🙏
Catholic HATRED is still rampant!!!
Words of wise,, we could use them now.
They are doing it all over again with Amy Barrett
ruclips.net/video/7yjTEdZ81lI/видео.html i suggest you learn about who she really is. She’s extremely qualified and fit for the job. She merely protects the constitution not represent the public
After they assassinated him they then sank a US ship killing over 50+ sailors
This country hasn't been the same after he was taken from us.
As usual, Kennedy nailed it. Although I'm not a Catholic, I seem to remember the Protestant churches giving their blessing to the KKK! Hardly what I would call an organization that espouses our beliefs as Americans.
I'm Catholic but I have to say that while some Protestant churches did support the KKK, many gave their support to Black Civil Rights.
@MrLolmaster101 what were the origins or nationalitys of the KKK people?
Hissam Ullah idk but something is off. Am not into catholic but if I remember right one of the pop went to hell. The guy is getting praised because of the good things he’s done and blah blah but if he really believed in god then all the glory should go to god and not himself. Plus there is one god not several and god mom has no powers at all no need to worship her she was just chooses to have Jesus as a baby that is all. Wish we can go back in time to actually see it and see how blind Catholics are
@@marcosmendez8805 English please.
"Protestants" aren't one organization, and it was largely Protestants who lead the abolition and civil rights movements.
…where is America evolving today and the next 10 years, 20 years, 30 years…❤ ?
Separation between State and Church well articulated and stated.
I don't see how this is the takeaway for people.
The Roman Catholic Church caused the Inquisition and was friends with Hitler and will be in favor of the antichrist. The beast with 7 heads and ten horns is Rome and the Vatican
@@onewotldgovernmentonlywhen9044 yes we had an inquisition. Hitler? Satan?
Hopefully we get to the point where this doesn't matter for Muslims or any other religion either. The 1960s were turbulent but at least back then we had a more healthy, constitutional look at things like religion. It was a personal thing, but one that the candidates didn't make a bedrock of their campaign. And look, JFK went on to become one of our most beloved presidents and didn't take any orders from the Pope.
I’m almost certain JFK would’ve been conservative today
JFK and his Democrat party were stanch opponents against Communism.
Today the Democrats have gone so far to the left as they welcome communists & Islamists into their party while promoting open borders, full term abortions, identity politics, victim hood, and socialism.. JFK must be spinning in his grave!!
@@romulus3345 great comment.
elizabeth tudor “identity politics”. Of course the party comprised 98% of white heterosexual Protestant christians would NEVER play identity politics....like disparaging potential candidates for being Irish Catholics or being black (and accused of being Muslim). What utter garbage
What do our opponents mean when they apply to us the label, "Liberal"? If by "Liberal" they mean, as they want people to believe, someone who is soft in his policies abroad, who is against local government, and who is unconcerned with the taxpayer's dollar, then the record of this party and its members demonstrate that we are not that kind of "Liberal." But, if by a "Liberal," they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people - their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties - someone who believes that we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say that I'm a "Liberal."
-JFK
@@MichaelCasanovaMusic paranoid wreck you should be ashamed
Will America ever have someone as great as this ever again??
A great oration of the separation of church and state, his exemplary speech should be revisited by all in these times...there's people in DC right now that should pay attention to this man's words
The Irish people have been oppressed slaughtered they stood their ground and took on the British empire still to this day the six county's still run buy the British. Ireland unfree shall never be at peace. JFK was a great man.RIP. JFK 🇮🇪
Meme Kelly lies lies lies. Catholics in Ireland were oppressed & in your words slaughtered not by the British state, but by your own fellow country men notably the IRA. I do agree JFK was a great president but if you do some research into his assassination you’ll find that because he believed in séparation of church & state and to bring an end to the Vietnam war. Plus his dislike of the federal reserve bank & the CIA, he was murdered by the society of Jesus ( ie) the Roman Catholic Jesuit order. Fact.
@@hilarioushen4164 ruclips.net/video/k02EYvX0_jU/видео.html
@hilarioushen4164 he was murdered by the military industrial complex along with the help of the CIA i.e (the dulles brothers). Nothing to do with the roman Catholic Church 🤦
He already set an example for John Kerry, Joe Biden and Tim Kaine. "I am Catholic but.."No offence. I agree with him. Since USA is founded based on Constitution and not the Bible or the Church.
Yeah, his numerous extra-marital affairs proves what a good Catholic he was.
@@mrcentreville
When you find nothing wrong with his politics you go after his PERSONAL life.
@@DNSMLT That's weird, I quite like JFK and admire his politics. That doesn't mean he had the cleanest personal life, now does it?
If you judge a person or a religion by their worst actions, then you need new glasses.
Geoffrey LaForce You put anyone else’s life under a microscope and you’ll see there is imperfection
Ted Sorenson wrote this speech, both of them flew to Houston from Los Angeles, truly a phenomenal performance, and helped him to get elected
He edited his speeches. He reads them first and edit .
A giant in politics, especially compared to his successors in office. Of course his religious beliefs was of zero consequence to his political aims. Something current successor in office should think about. Dec 2020
It's ashamed how many views this video, it deserves so much more.
They split his wig for it too
Idealist without illusion self-described JFK
A in depth thinking president is what we need like JFK again.
King George VI was a friend of Hitler before WW II. He brought him to Lindon to meet with his government when Queen Elizabeth the daughter of King George was a small girl that gave Hitler the Nazi salute. Later, she hated Pres. Kennedy when he went to Germany and said, I am a Berliner.' (Ich bin ein Berliner). Because as Queen Elizabeth II she wanted East Germany to remain Communist so she could exploit Germany of its wealth for fecades to come. However, Pres. Ronald Reagan hated Communism and went to the concrete wall and declared, "Mr. Gorbachev, tear that wall down!" And the wall was torn down by the East Berliners and they were united with West Berliners finally -- Victor Isaac Alexander
It doesn't matter what religion as long as motives are not to use region to hide behind and to live in denial, just like people without a faith tend to do.
He went against the Antichrist
A truly great speech from a Democrat war hero. Compare this to today's Democrats.
Thank you Jeff
great job
Thank you.
What a decent man, especially compared to the current incumbent whom is a true American trajedy!
He made this speech before the election. So sad what happened in spite of this speech...
Of course Johnson didn't find this type of speech necessary. You know, with his "Great Society" plan and all.
America was never ready for this man
Shame such a well produced video has so few views
there is no bieber in it.
Where's FDR's podium?
I gave up religion a very long time ago! A candidates religion or color should have absolutely no bearing on a voter's decision! I didn't support Bernie Sanders because he's Jewish, rather because of what he said and stands for!!!!
*SEPARATION OF CHURCH/ AND "STATE"
(THE USA NATION STATE IS SECULAR/ IS THERE FOR ALL AMERICAN CITIZENS😊/ INDEPENDENT OF THEIR RELIGION/LIFE CONVICTION)
OF THE ESSENCE/
FOR A WELL FUNCTIONING DEMOCRACY😊/
TO RECOGNIZE THIS IS NEVER TOO "LATE".
He spoke very eloquently and idealistically, but the part that was repeated on the news, at the time, was the part where he emphasized that he'd be loyal to the USA more than to the pope. At least that's the part I remember, and it's the part that I most often see mentioned. I'm not sure if my memory represents what most people at that time heard and reacted to. I'd be interested to hear if this has been surveyed, or commented on by others who recall that time.
President Kennedy? What can be wrong?😀
He was a demacrat.
@@kathyf7322 Don't insult JFK by comparing him to today's dems lol
He confronted Pope's interests head-on in America and in the world, especially in Vietnam.
One of about 7 reasons the knights of malta ,columbus,templars had him killed,.the vatican says was up
So i feel what people neess
For me also.as long you knoe how to shre what you have enough
i think Jack is dis fast beleve in Catholic!!it's make came for great nation U.S
Anti-Catholic prejudice there was...? Really? THERE IS!
Cuz i grew up indelendent.i never delend or ask my mama for my study and all?
My 5 grandfathers died for freedom 😟
The person speaking about Kennedy’s speech here just took what he said totally wrong. He stated that Kennedy said his religious beliefs did not dictate his conscience in decisions. This is false. Kennedy said he would make secessions based on his conscious. His beliefs would naturally affect his conscience. What he did say is that no religion would dictate his decisions. In other words no other unity would tell him how to act or think.
We need to shre our blessibg if we have and too much
Nothing has changed, we have only had 2 president who were Catholic, and the rest Protestant, this is NOT DEMOCRACY THIS IS THE QUEEN RULING FROM HER GRAVE, SHE IS THE QUEEN AND MOTHER OF PROTESTANT CHRISTIAN.
They will advice but the chooce still if you take there advice good if not good also
But i really kenor hold any big amount in my hand or bank account.kc if i saw homeless kids outside or charity surely goe there
Ich Bin Ein "Jelly Donut"
Why are swearing us
I thought he was Christian?
0:14
Was he really the first Christian even though the nearest true Christians were Unitarians so before him all the presidents were freemasons, Albert Pikes manifesto about his three world wars is really an eye opener and is scary JFK was a real super hero without a Cape he tried his best to finish them. There was a show in 2016 called Timeless about Rittenhouse how powerful they were wonder who ended that show. What did Rockerfellor say we want a nation of workers not thinkers we need to be Zombies brainless. We need someone who has views like JFK. Trump was OK but everyone good they get rid off or overthrown or do a coup or even assassinate you they first shame your name and you principles and what good decent people stand for. Look at the Ukraine leader before him that leader was overthrown scary.
When is this going to end.
No prejudice
This man is like Jesus, he was sacrificed so that we Catholics would witness that the Queen is still ruling from her grave
A
President Obama would probably support this speech....
see_it_as_is 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Obama fully supports NWO.
Of course not borack and joe bidden they're catholic

Papists out of America
Buffoon
Brian Rafferty why? You’re loyalty is with Rome
Communist?
The Roman Catholic church is evil , the pope does nothing in public for the people as he comes out ever so often and wave.
Actually the church itself is staunchly anti-communist
