Kennedy says this to explain to his audience that rather than involving their country into the outside violence, such as wars, they can instead show kindness by helping others who are in need which can…
He says “Values have shrunken to fantastic levels…” (Doc A). The quote explains in dept of the financial problems that they are facing. Kennedy on the other hand was faced with the struggle of the equality of men.…
On a kindred note, Kennedy would utilize his time in office to find a solution to the dilemmas of Americans, not only the nation’s problems. Kennedy apperceives that communism isn't the only problem in hand, and that if America wants to find a solution to communism, we first must address the agonizing issues our society is dealing with. Senator Kennedy knows that America is sublime, but it isn't living up to its full potential. Document A showed Kennedy stating, “This is a great country, but I think it could be a greater country...,” during one of his televised debates. Kennedy isn't gratified with America just being “good.”…
Lyndon B. Johnson stated that, despite the devastating death of John Kennedy, America will move on. America will move on not because the citizens want to, but because Americans had a duty to show decisive action, and citizens had to continue to push for changes that were created by Kennedy so that his death does not go in vain. Lyndon B. Johnson stressed the fact that America has a strong sense of determination and pride that allowed the people of the United States of America to unite as one. Equality, better education, and peace are just the beginning of the legacy that John F. Kennedy left behind. Lyndon B. Johnson stated that Americans already had courage and strength to continue for the battle of peace; therefore, the meaning behind the…
The diversity at NC State is one of the many reasons that draws me to the University. I look forward to meeting the vast array of individuals who all unite as one in the Wolfpack. Diversity will allow me to understand different people for who they are, not how they are presented in the media and popular culture. Different viewpoints, languages, ethnic groups, and nationalities are just a few of the things I hope to experience at NC State. I find it important to create acquaintances from various backgrounds in order to unite ourselves as fellow humans, regardless of where we were born or what language we speak.…
Diversity is a key element for a proper learning environment; students must be amongst people of other backgrounds to be exposed to the variation in the real world. In the scientific community, collaboration with others is necessary, and often, they come from an alternate way of life. Working with someone who may be different in many ways has numerous benefits; they may be able to propose ideas that you had not previously considered, or they could inform you of something that has the potential to assist you later in life. Living in a diverse setting not only an educational benefit, but it also aids in the preparation for the real world. We live in an extremely diverse location, with people immigrating from various places around the world.…
Kennedy says that Without immigrants, we wouldn’t be sitting here today. Imagine a scenario in which we never came to America. It would be a vastly different place then it is today, and we have the immigrants to thank for that. But to Quinland American is “A mongrel nation built of ever-changing disparate parts, it is held together by a notion, the notion that…
The United States was founded upon the principle of democracy. In fact, the binding behind all aspects of American government is an important document known as the Constitution of the United States of America that states all policies and principles necessary in order to structure a democratic governmental system. Democracy can be summed up by one important phrase present in the United States Constitution: “We the people…” and when the people change, political structure and policy must adjust to meet the needs of an increasingly diversified population (“The Constitution of the United States” 3). One state which exemplifies a rapid diversifying of a population is the southern states of Texas. Texas has long since been a state known for its diversity,…
The discrimination and importance of immigrants has had a great impact on the United States. Quindlen and Kennedy both believe that immigrants are a large part of America. Quindlen is telling that discrimination is pointless and she is directed more towards educated people and people of power. JFK is focusing on how immigrants are a large portion of America and he is speaking to the average person, trying to inspire them.…
In contrast, Kennedy gives thought provoking questions, that causes one to reevaluate their stance. He asks questions such as, “...ask not what your country can do for you-ask what you can do for your country. ”(Kennedy 513). Both of them use emotion to captivate their…
The use of opposites in Kennedy’s speech reflect his attempt to unite the American people despite their vast differences. When he states, “If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich,” he tries to unite the rich and the poor. Although both groups of people are highly divided socioeconomically, Kennedy asserts that they will only be able to grow if they work towards common goals. He also suggests that he will be a president for all people, since he shows that he is concerned about the growth of the United States as a…
Throughout the years many arguments have been set towards privileges and obligations of freedom. Freedom is an interesting thing. Freedom doesn’t just appear at he or she’s doorstep, but it can be earned. Many people criticize the freedom of other people because they don’t feel it can apply to them. They don’t think that anyone could have the same amount of freedom.…
Kennedy is attempting to light the fire within people so that the country can push forward and become a better nation for…
“Denied equal rights, denied the opportunity to eat at a restaurant… or go to a movie theater, denied the right to a decent education, denied almost today the right to attend a State university.” Kennedy used “denied” four separate times to highlight how privileged white Americans were. The use of repetition enlightens facts about Negroes not being able to live “regular” lives. They were segregated, not offered the same rights, and unable to provide for their families because America doesn’t offer the same jobs to black people as white. The word “denied” relates back to bringing America together as one so that the rights in the Constitution are obliged…
