This is JFK's next-to-last speech, which he gave in Fort Worth. Our newest senior member Rick Shaddock brought it to my attention. What he noticed was the look on LBJ's face as JFK was speaking.





What I noticed is that when LBJ introduced Kennedy, he never stated his name. He ended it by saying, "I now give you the President of the United States." He didn't say his name! Imagine if that happened at a nominating convention. "I now give you the next President of the United States...." And that's it? 

And wait til you hear how LBJ was introduced by the guy before him. Oh My God!

Here's the link. At the start, Kennedy was funny too. What he said about his wife was hilarious.
