Callie Schank- Kennedy speeches

I have always liked President Kennedy so I found it interesting to listen to him. I think he was doing the best he knew how with the whole racial issue in the south. Like it said it was one of his first big issues he dealt with so I think he was doing the best he could. I do agree that he didn't completely get what southern racisism was about beacuse he didnt live down here and understand just what all it involved. But I admire he zeal and attept to make things right and get things at Oxford changed. It was a big risk and attemt but I think that Kennedy was a great man and just trying to accomplish what he knew was right even though it caused riots in the streets. It was kinda sad that they ended up having to send in troops to end the riot, but then he also underestimated the power of the south.
