Which statement best explains Kennedy's message in
this excerpt?
Read the excerpt from John F Kennedy's inaugural
address
Now the trumpet summons us again not as a call to
bear arms, though arms we need not as a call to
battle, though embattled we are but a call to bear the
burden of a long twilight struggle, year in and year out
"rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation" a struggle
against the common enemies of man tyranny,
poverly disease and war itsell
Can we forge against these enemies a grand and
global alliance, North and South, East and West, that
can assure a more fruitful life for all mankind? Will you
join in that historic effort?
In the long history of the world, only a few generations
have been granted the role of defending freedom in its
hour of maximum danger I do not shrink from this
responsibility welcome it I do not believe that any
American citizens must be prepared for war
The United States is prepared to protect freedom
The United States is the greatest country in the
world
American citizens have a history of protecting
democracy
Save and Exit
