The Emblem of the Knights
The emblem of the Knights of the Round Table worn round the necks of all the Knights was given to them by King Arthur as part of the ceremony of their being made a knight.
The Order's dominant idea was the love of God, men, and noble deeds. The cross in the emblem was to remind them that they were to live pure and stainless lives, to strive after perfection and thus attaining the Holy Grail. The Red Dragon of King Arthur represented their allegiance to the King. The Round Table was illustrative of the Eternity of God, the equality, unity, and comradeship of the Order, and singleness of purpose of all the Knights.

Several years later, Kennedy, who was the youngest and first Roman Catholic President of the United States (1961-1963), took vigorous action in the cause of equal rights, calling for new civil rights legislation. His vision of America extended to the quality of the national culture and the central role of the arts in a vital society.

Firstly, it was interesting to see how Arthur could manage to rule the country and solve his problems on his own and without the help of his mentor, Merlin. Secondly, it was wise of Arthur to design the Round Table in order to reach equality among his Knights, so no one would be in a position of leadership. The knights had to supply a code of chivalry and a set of rules in order to be part of that table. Thirdly, he prioritized his love to Guenevere when he saw himself involved in a love triangle with Lancelot having an affair with his wife. Fourthly, in spite of Mordred´s rebellion against him, Arthur could succeed in leaving a legacy in order to be remembered by what he did for his country. The one in charge of spreading this legacy in the future was a little child called Tom who really wanted to be a knight of the Round table, being proud of what had been done by
