JFK calls upon citizens to be prepared to take up arms to preserve our liberty.
“No one has a right to feel that, having entrusted the tasks of government to new leaders in Washington, he can continue to pursue his private comforts unconcerned with America’s challenges and dangers. For, if freedom is to survive and prosper, it will require the sacrifice, the effort and the thoughtful attention of every citizen.
In my own native state of Massachusetts, the battle for American freedom was begun by the thousands of farmers and tradesmen who made up the Minute Men — citizens who were ready to defend their liberty at a moment’s notice. Today we need a nation of minute men; citizens who are not only prepared to take up arms, but citizens who regard the preservation of freedom as a basic purpose of their daily life and who are willing to consciously work and sacrifice for that freedom. The cause of liberty, the cause of America, cannot succeed with any lesser effort.
It is this effort and concern which makes up the New Frontier. And it is this effort and concern which will determine the success or failure not only with this Administration, but of our nation itself.”
– John F. Kennedy January 29th, 1961
JFK was the last Democrat president. If he were alive today, he would be among the last Republicans.
I always wondered how Ted Kennedy, in essence, disavowed his brother, JFK, with his constant push to raise taxes and open borders.
He had a way with words (through writers, maybe, but worthy of legacy).
Shove his words down Nancy’s and Chucky’s throats. That’s the only way they could absorb their meaning.
