Best Irreguration In History: John F. Kennedy

Decent Essays
Have you ever wondered who has the inauguration in history?The best inauguration speech in history to me was John F. Kennedy´s. President Kennedy gave the best inauguration speech in history.
One reason this was the best inauguration speech is because he speaks the truth. Not a lot of people like people who tell the truth they would rather have a liar in office than someone who speaks the truth. People don't want someone in office that will tell the truth because they want to stay out of trouble so if we have a liar in office they will help people doing bad. When he said he was going to do something he did it. He didn't say something and not do it. We didn't have a liar in office when we had him for president and didn't need one.

Popular sovereignty or the sovereignty of the people's rule, is the principle that the authority of a state and its government is created and sustained by the consent of its people, through their elected representatives (Rule by the People), who are the source of all political power.…

    He’s not a kid anymore if he keeps on lying how can we trust him? When I look at the question, “Why is it important that the government and the President tell the truth to the public”, I can give a simple answer because he is the president. I’m going to go beyond that simple answer, though. He is the leader of this nation, a somewhat functioning country. He needs to tell it how it is and not lie all the time.…

President Lincoln’s captivating speech, presented on March 4, 1865 in Washington D.C., became the unifying force to rebuilding the nation which had previously been torn apart by a civil war.

President Lincoln consistently alludes to biblical quotes to not only appeal to common religious knowledge of the North and South, but to equally condemn both sides.…
