        Kennedy reassured Houston ministers that he believed in the U.S. Constitution and the separation of church and state.

        Politically shrewd move to assuage the fear of being beholden to the Vatican.

        Do u think a Jewish candidate could win now? Sadly I don't think we're ready for a Muslim president yet but are we ready for a Jewish one?

        Really, a speech he didn't have to make. But the anti-Catholic fervor was that bad.

        John F. Kennedy was not perfect but some of his speeches were unbelievably inspiring. It's worth reminding ourselves what that sounded like.

        What would JFK have to do in today's craziness, convince evangelicals he'd put them ahead of other faiths AND the Constitution???

        President Kennedy, all these yrs after his death, remains inspiring. Shame his daughter threw him under the bus, for the mediocre BO in 08.
