- June 26th will mark the 50th anniversary of U.S. President John F. Kennedy's famous speech: "Ich bin ein Berliner".
The speech, which underlined the United States support for West Germany in the wake of the construction of the Berlin Wall, proved to be a great morale boost for the people of West Berlin.
It concluded President Kennedy's state visit to Germany, during which he also visited the cities of Cologne, Bonn, Hanau, Frankfurt and Wiesbaden.

For us Germans he is still the Greatest President Of The United States until today.
What about Reagan
@@starkillerdude1914 What about trump ?
For many of us Americans, he is still one of the great U.S. Presidents - far surpassing the current "leader."
@@KandaceYork Certainly.
RIP Mr. Kennedy.
@@starkillerdude1914 What about him?
We are still carrying the consequences of his Reaganomics.
Not a good president. His VP ruled for 8 years + 4 when he became president.
Its a shame that Mr Kennedy was safer in Berlin Germany then he was in his own home country in 1963 R.I.P Sir
Derrick Bonner no sane person in germany had something against him, in fact today kennedy is more respected in germany than in the US, germans of course also absolutely loved reagan, both stood for hope.
Yes and much of it had to do with the US Military at that time.
bloody Soviets, blame it on them. It was one of those USSR-visiting, soviet-marrying, "liberal" communists--Oswald, who killed him
"germans of course also absolutely loved reagan" - no certainly not! He was viewed as an uninformed, belligerent moron. His Berlin Wall speech was widely ridiculed (in the USA, it's rated almost Gettysburg-scale eloquence); Helmut Kohl rightly feared it might derail the entire de-Stalinization project of Gorbachev. Maybe, old German Nazis like him honoring the Waffen SS!@@A_annoying_rodent
@@A_annoying_rodent Not true. Germans did not love Ronny. Maybe a group of old-fashion Germans but not the people. On the contrary Germans loved Kennedy and still they talk about him. And also they don't believe a lone nut shot him.
I sensed back in late 80's, early 90's, Germans respected Gorbachev a lot more than Reagan. They saw this last one as a guy who was preparing a war.
The Germans welcomed this great man with graciousness and respect. Thank you Germany. I am glad you were able to see him before his death. Without Jfk Democracy flew out the window. Thanks again Germany!
No we Germans have to thank America for not giving an Inch to the Communists.
The people of Berlin will always remember the Berlin airlift.
This was the best time and the best President for America.Rest in Peace John F. Kennedy!
I'm not so sure it was the best time for America, but I do respect JFK and his legacy.
I don't think this time was the best for the US but for sure he was a fine president. One of the best ones. Unfortunately he had more enemies in his homeland than any other place around the world. One of his worst enemies was the military industrial complex because he wanted peace. Ironically the ones who want peace die violently.
RIP Mr. President.
Agreed
Agreed plus fact that between 1962-1965 the US (more so than even Little Switzerland, lol, had THE best/highest Living standards/Quality of Life in the world. We as a government/nation/society have to quickly do the impossible & More to finally be #1 again (in ALL areas), something difficult no doubt yet still very doable, necessary, desirable & worthwhile (for starters).....more so if we are to call ourselves (& consider ourselves a Global superpower). Cheers....
@@albertopalma1663 majority of people in US LOVE/LOVED Him, Yes they did, same in Europe (#1), Latin America (my region), Asia & elsewhere, & for many reasons & Yes, even most in the Great US military mega machine of early 1960s (the best!) Also LOVED him & Admired & Respected him (being a decorated & famous US WW2 Navy officer/combat veteran (see video if JFK at Annapolis/Naval Academy commencenent address/speech & crowd's reaction) & who supported improving American military readiness, & boosting key areas/programs/units such as the super elite (then & now & always) Army's Green Berets & the elite US Navy SEAL teams & much more while simultaneously cutting back on dependence & production of nuclear weapons & NBC/WMD in general.
The leader of the free world
God bless America
I don’t think anyone could understand what exactly Kennedy was and why he is so universally loved more than this video.
20 years after we had defeated them as nemesis. This man comes up and has a crowd of millions of Germans shouting his name in admiration and waving American flags.
Like a Roman consul during a triumph.
Actually that was exactly my thought. This looks like a Roman Triumph.
Well, his enemies did. They were covetous of the love people had for him.
Amen!
@@madalenasimoes8066 his enemies LOST & are now All rotting in Hell for all eternity........
@@fredcollins8919 There had been enemies and there are enemies still. How could you look around it and not see them and their works? They are the same ones that also participated in Abraham Lincoln’s demise.
“The Suppressed Truth About The Assassination of Abraham Lincoln “ by Burke McCarthy
Just look at the popular reception Kennedy got from all kinds of people. Can you imagine any other President being received with such such joy and hopefulness?
JONH KENNEDY is awesome Acclaimed and Appointed by Berliners
Planting the seed of freedom in the world.
The seed of freedom in Germany
The liberation of Berlin
And in all of europe
Kennedy communicating to the West Germans that the USA had their back even if it meant a direct confrontation with the Soviets. Meant the world to them and boy did they give him a hero's welcome for it.
We are thankful for this til today 🇩🇪🤝🇺🇸
@@mrrood4871 You're welcome. But don't even let your country slip into a dark era like what happened in 39-45. Never again. 11.5 million murdered by one nation still bafels my mind to this day.
No US President has ever drawn such enthusiastic and numerous crowds overseas as JFK did. Reagan just followed in his footsteps, and didn't arouse half as much excitement.
It was a different time and the communists were on their heels when Reagan made his speech. In 1963, the communists were still advancing and it was an open question which side would prevail. There was great fear and apprehension in 1963 whether the USA would go to all out war to protect the enclave of West Berlin. That heightened fear did not exist in 1987 when Reagan delivered his speech. One could say that the shoe was now on the other foot.
All Kennedy speeches are a pleasure to listen. A master of the word he was...
Yes he sure was. More than his other brothers & more so than most US politicians both back THEN & most definitely much much better than all US politicians since his death till present day.......
So much hope! America was at the zenith of its strength and credibility under Kennedy! He gave us so much hope
This is an excellent video.
I remember we came dangerously close to going to war over West Berlin. Those old kinescopes of Checkpoint Charlie poignantly demonstrated this for everyone to see. Sure am glad that war didn't break out after all!
what a great man !!! when i learnt english his story was wonderfull and cheered me up to fight against everything
God, he was handsome too.
It's crazy I live on the same street 1km from the Rathaus where he gives the line "ich bin ein Berliner' at the end. Last month, there was a school teachers strike & rally at the same spot, but less people :)
Ive gone to the mini JFK museum in Berlin near Brandenburg gate. Well worth a visit
Kennedy had some major faults in his personal life, but life is about balance. He made mistakes as a President, but some great accomplishments too. The men who were on the PT 109 with him had nothing but good things to say about his leadership.
Jack hits a home run.
Happy Birthday, Mr. President.
An iconic moment of history with only 160k views.
Few hundreds thousands people's gathering to meet the great Man. But he is very simple and very good kind of the person. Really highly respected him
Good quality!

Around this time, my mom got my dad a shortwave radio for their anniversary. Dad heard JFK's Berlin Wall address on that radio, and he loved both the radio and this speech by Kennedy. Dad felt that this speech was very powerful in its meaning. He also felt that his shortwave radio was his connection to the world; he spent a good deal of time listening to broadcasts from Canada, the US, West Germany, and so on.
Imagine he had to give this speech in Hamburg instead of Berlin
Ich bin ein Hamburger that is what would he say
How many people in the crowd could actually understand his speech? I'm surprised by how many people applauded him whilst he was speaking in English.
There was an interpretator there speaking in German. President Kennedy introduced him to the crowd before he began his speech.
the germans learn english in the school so almost every german speak english
That was not the question, there was an interpretator there. You need to research the whole speech because President Kennedy acknowledged the interpretator during the whole speech.
Barbara Long He only acknowledged the intepretator when he said "Ich bin ein Berliner", presumably he just translated that into German for him?
Will you listen to the interpretator translating the speech into German he can be heard in the speech released by the Kennedy Library.
I miss him a lot. A great president not like Biden.

In Deutschland ist der amerikanische Präsident JFK ein Nationalheld
Ice Se Weener haben den USA viel zu verdanken
jfk the best in this periode
He's got much more acclaim on that day in Germany than Trump after his inauguration oath in Washington almost two weeks ago.
Because Washington is a democrat state
It'll be a different story come 2020
@@tonyfarfan3574 hopefully so
2 million people in Cologne come out to see JFK
7:07 Best part!
Ifyou were still here You and Gerry would have made it to unite Erin!
It's interesting that Stalin didn't support the idea of dividing Germany. Moreover, Stalin suggested that West and East parts of Germany join together back to 1950s, but on condition that it would be a neutral state and it wouldn't join NATO. But NATO states refused.
Cuz people knew Stalin was a backstabber
2:32 I thought he was about to say "ich bin ein Kölner"...
Great footage.
Mr. President, Mr Kennedy was a capable Man.
So as Mr. President Mr. Reagan, Mr. President, Mr. President Nixon..
To move on, the same goes to Mr. President Donald J Trump, Mr. President Mr Barack Obama, Mr. President George Bush, Mr. President Mr. Joe Biden..
A great deal of capable Presidents make America great again in only 260 years or so..

Now THAT is a US President.
It's a good thing it was Berlin. Had it been Hamburg saying "I am a Hamburger" would lose something. Same for Frankfurt and "I am a Frankfurter".
Please thank you
Nice to see old videos in color now

7:15 why were there the French flags on podium behind president Kennedy ??
Kölle ALLAF !

“God”, “we believe in God”, “our culture and religion”. God God God!
The greatest civilisation is built on God! Without God we die, and we see today. Soviets died in their atheistic world! Wake up Europe!
atheists are way more smarts and inteligent.
Fernando Graça in your dreams. Thats Why soviets lost.

American Royalty at its best.
Do you think the somewhat religious rhetoric from JFK was out of true personal belief, or was it aimed at countering the atheist aspect of communism?
+pleasedontstalkme Likely both.
"The denomination did not matter as back then"
This is completely false, Kennedy's Catholic faith was an issue in the 1960 election, at the time there were many protestants who were prejudiced against Catholics. www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=16920600

JFK returned home, but his soul may not entered into my body making me very dizzy. Where is Germany?
poor audio :(
***** "21 gun salute", did you even pay attention?
Can anyone please tell me why do all early videos have that background noise?
Do you mean in the picture?
I live in Germany I am now In homburg
Hat dir Frankreich schon vergessen! Nie mehr Nazis !!!
Hoffentlich nicht.....
Great
poor audio :(
I find him so sympathatic PS.:The moment when you are from germany and you know he made a mistake Its called ,,Ich bin Berliner" not ,,Ich bin ein Berliner" but still he was a good President
*Grammar Nazi intensifies*
My German friends have all told me that what Kennedy said isn't actually grammatically incorrect, and no one in Germany thought twice about it at the time either. Apparently it was only the Americans who gave him a hard time about the alternate "jelly donut" meaning.
7:15 what are those blue white and red flags?
parabéns pela imagem
muito boa
7:12 ich bin ein berliner🤣
NE MUTLU TURKUM DIYENE🇹🇷
I'm pretty sure he called himself a cake. . .
Well Berliner is a person who lives in Berlin, but you would say Ich bin Berliner. With the ein added in he called himself a certain type of cake. I don't remember what type exactly.
Das ist falsch.
A Berliner is a Jam filled Donut.
haha, that's pretty funny. never knew that.
Avec lui a commencer la fierté d'être human
I already ordered a top hat
And the current POTUS takes this boast less proud
John f k a brilliant President

Ich bin ein Berliner means "I am a jelly doughnout"
And "I am a citizen of Berlin"
It is a myth that Kenedy made a mistake even if "I am a jelly donut" would be an possible translation, too.
No if he took out "ein" it would be that
Dude, do you want to argue with a native speaker or what?
If you don't believe me go read the Wikipedia article: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ich_bin_ein_Berliner
Mr. Sir Excuse me? I am German American that means I am a Berliner
Mr. Sir is plain stupid. He probably was not even around when Kennedy was President. I was, how about you, sir.
Ik been ein ekter berliner
Ich bin ein Berliner...
or maybe Ick bin ein echter berliner
I wonder if he brought his Nazi buddy back to visit his homeland. 🤣
