Well, that attitude is frowned on nowadays. It's everyone for themselves and the country suffers for it.

Taranchalanche, what did the Trumps steal? Don’t tell me the election. People just didn’t conduct proper polls to know how people really felt about all the political nonsense.

RushMama2112, True but it's not too late to model ourselves after what worked historically. God knows what we are doing now us failing miserably.

The possible credit to Gibran is based upon a 1925 essay called, "The New Frontier." It is not at all a direct quote of anything written by Gibran. The most likely source for the quote is a speech made by Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., which predates Gibran by fifty years. Holmes said (paraphrasing) We rejoice today in the beauty of America, we recall all that this country has done for us, and ask ourselves what we can do to give back.

One of my favorite presidents.

One of the best statements of the presidency.. He instilled hope and prosperity. We need that today. I dislike the cat and mouse of politics today.

one of the absolute best presidents the U.S. has ever had. too bad his term was so short, we probably would have never been involved with Vietnam had he lived.

President Kennedy was probably also planting the seeds for his Peace Corp which was founded by him in March of 1961, 2 months after that speech.
Great Leader. RIP
