JFK 'A'

President John F. Kennedy’s inaugural address is focused mainly on the corruption and obsession of power and how to prevent it in American society. He mentions that the “new generation of Americans” are the beholders of the nations future. He pledges to ensure “the success of liberty” under any circumstances, to offer the nation’s “best efforts” in assistance to third world countries of the world, and to act upon his promises rather than to merely state them for a sense of morale. John F. Kennedy goes on to assure that peace should be reached among any adversaries of the United States for death and destruction in enormous forms can only be the result of conflict due to nations new capability of weapons of mass destruction i.e. the atom bomb. He values civility and assures that it “is not a sign of weakness” for an attempt of negotiation should be first instilled among adversaries. He wishes that nations value science for its beauty and wonder, rather for its possible destructiveness. He asks his fellow citizens if they are willing to join in the “historic effort” in an alliance with all hemispheres. His ideals of peace and a preservation of liberty are put forth and drilled into the minds of his audience.
John F. Kennedy uses his passion and sincerity to connect to his audience and incite the same ideals he has into those of his listeners. He signifies his day to be one of celebration, not of himself, but of the republic. This is a changing day based upon a new generation and new policy as well as an end to an older generation and old policy. He is not prideful in himself for achieving mass power, but is prided by the power that offers him opportunity to express his own ideas and assertions that will, if enacted, offer global benefits. He implies himself as a regular citizen as he addresses America as his ‘fellow’ citizens. He forces his words and ideals into the audiences’s mind through his eloquent and passionate voice. Though JFK’s eloquence is apparent, he remains simple in speech as to appeal to even the simplest of simpletons. He wishes to leave out no one in his quest for peace and invites all to join in the effort of building a cooperative nation and globe.
