Kennedy was probably the most influential president in US history. His role as president inspired the whole nation into what it is today. This is my thought and I hope of most people even after the tragic day of his assassination. Even after his death, he is still seen as a great person for what he did. I still remember him and so does this community when they see the high school named after him. This high school is John. F. Kennedy and I attend this fine school. It may be under construction, but it still brings memories of the 35th president of the United States of America.
The first thing JFK was most memorable for was his inaugural address when he became president on January 20, 1961. It was 4:00 A.M. and Kennedy was rehearsing his address to the people. While rehearsing he ate two strips of bacon and a cup of coffee. He has been up the whole night going from ceremony to ceremony in his limousine with Secret Service men all around the vehicle (Reeves 34). As he returns to the White House he is getting nervous about saying something stupid to the crowd of press, spectators, and everyone watching. Now it was time for the inaugural address. There on the platform with him was sixteen Kennedy's, President Eisenhower, former President Truman, Vice President Nixon, and the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, Earl Warren (Reeves 35). Once everybody was there, Marian Anderson sang "The Star-Spangled Banner."" Once this was done Robert Frost, the nation's most famous poet (and a New Englander, like JFK), delivered a poem to open the memorable inauguration (Reeves 37). The poem he said was called "The Gift Outright- which Frost made in 1942 .
(Reeves 38). .
Now came the time for Kennedy to say his address to the nation. He started by saying "We observe today not a victory of party but a celebration of freedom --symbolizing an end as well as a beginning--signifying renewal as well as change.
