In honor of John F. Kennedy's historic Ask Not Inaugural Address given 50 Years ago to the day.



The man who changed the face of America.

And for a short while every American believed in America.


The world was this beautiful, hopeful place.

Thank you President John F. Kennedy. You showed us what was possible when citizens believe in their government and that government, in return, acts upon the benefit of those citizens...


I remember this great time in the world; the pervasive, overall sense of hope that preceded each moment. Better yet, hope was the backdrop of every moment.

I didn't post this under the Political Philosophy because I believe the philosophy of JFK and the term liberal itself extends so far beyond the political spectrum that this modern day interpretation cannot be fenced into a category that reflects an opinion, liberal is a force that spills into all fields and philosophies of thought.
