veterans.”

now. I wish he could serve for another four years. I know he hasn’t been

the perfect president, but he’s really been the best president that this

country has ever had.”

country. He brought in a new spirit after Jimmy Carter. He brought joy

and confidence to the office.”

“John F. Kennedy because he supported civil rights. He was a good man.

He was one of the best we have ever had. And I will remember the day that

he died for as long as I live. I was a sixth-grader at the time and I was

in math class.”
