The President Calling: Jessica Dees

I decided to listen the podcast of John F. Kennedy. I have always respected JFK over a lot of different presidents and I thought it would be easy to understand his opinions and thoughts. But unfortunately I was wrong about the understanding part. I realize he was discussing the matter of how he does not believe the Government of Mississippi was at right for a lot of their decisions. But I am still not sure. (I am hoping I will be able to sift through what he really meant after this class.) Anyway, in my opinion I think JFK was stating that the Mississippi government should not punish a student by kicking him out of the University of Mississippi for being black If this is so I completely agree with him because I believe even though other people have prejiduce you should be able to keep your right to obtain knowledge.
