>>My favorite JFK quotation, even ahead of "Ask not...." and "Ich bin ein Berliner" (I am a jelly donut) was in a little noted speech in October 1963. "We all share this small planet. We all breathe the same air. We all cherish our children's futures. And we are all mortal."

>Where are those kinds of speeches today?
I love many things about the famous JFK speech.
But what is so good about the portion of the speech that Mike posted?
Ok, so we all "share this small planet" and "breath the same air" and "cherish our children" .... so what?
The American Republic will endure, until politicians realize they can bribe the people with their own money.
- Alexis de Tocqueville
No man’s life, liberty, or property is safe while the legislature is in session.
