Lee Harvey Oswald: as a child showed signs of violence and rebellion He was described as a “latchkey” child who came from school to an empty home. He had no father figure and his mother constantly worked. Lee and his mother often move from one place to another. There was an occasion where Lee was sent to a youth detention center for 3 weeks of psychiatric evaluation and he was described as a “kid who had never developed a really trusting relationship with anybody. He really interacted with no one. You got the feeling of a kid nobody gave a darn about” (Rockwood, 2013). He was obviously neglected he spend majority of his time at home alone, he prepared his own meals and his mother was never home. He never felt the love from his mother or brothers and dislike being around others and at age 14 he was diagnosed with "personality pattern disturbance with schizoid features and passive - aggressive

John F. Kennedy was the first president to dance with a black woman at his inaugural ball (abc.com). In the 1960s segregation in the south was a progressing problem, schools and workplaces were still segregated even though there were laws. Civil rights activists wanted stand, but they simply didn’t have enough power. JFK took a stand by setting the groundwork for a bill and integrating schools in the south.

When John F. Kennedy gave his inaugural address after he took office, “the United States and the Soviet Union were stockpiling nuclear weapons, creating the possibility of a disastrous war that could destroy the earth” (Kennedy). His speech evoked a sense of security and a spirit of idealism which reassured Americans of their nation's strengths and inspired them to serve their country and the world. During this time period this reassurance was crucial since many thoughts were focused on when the skies will be filled with mushroom clouds. This is an example of subjective freedom. Although no country provoked this cold war, citizens of these countries were locked in subjective imprisonment. In essence, Kennedy’s speech help the key that unlocked this cage and allowed the people of America to have mental

Despite the mistakes his father and brother made, Lee managed to grow learning the ways of a true Southern gentleman. The departure of his father and two older half-brothers made Lee the man of the house at an early age. His mother, Ann Carter, raised Lee in modest circumstances and helped him to learn standard of conduct. Lee grew up in modest conditions, and though he received the normal education for someone of his class, he had to earn his own living and didn’t live the easy-going plantation life that most members of his family did. Since his mother did not have sufficient cash to send Lee to go to college, he chose instead to enter West Point military and academy. He entered in 1825 at the age of 18. At West Point Lee excelled tremendously. He finished second in his class and didn’t receive one demerit during his four years there (A feat that has yet to be repeated since then). Lee entered Engineer Corps after graduation where he was employed to build and maintain military installations and assist the Federal Government in the enormous work of providing internal improvements in order to settle border disputes on the frontier lands.

Lee was born January 19, 1807, in Virginia. He graduated from U.S military in second, and when the Civil war started, he was instantly a hero for the South, because of his smart tactics, and his plans for everything he did. If he were to fight for the Union, it would have lasted about one year, and Lincoln knew that. Thats why Lincon asked Lee to fight for him, but Lee declined the offer kindly. One of the wars he fought in before the Cival War was the Mexican war, and he was promoted to colonel because of his bravness, and his sense of survival. Lee saw himself as a wing, in the family greatness. At the age of 18, he enrolled to the point Military Academy, while there he put his mind to that and seriously minded to work hard and determined. He said “Do your duty in all things.You cannot do more; you should never wish to do less.”After graduating he married a girl named Marry Custis, they had seven kids three boys and four girls. During war he said “I cannot trust a man to control others if he cannot control

Many Americans argue over whether John F. Kennedy was a good president. When simply grazing over the surface, it is easy to assume that Kennedy was indeed a superb president. From having a “perfect” family, handsome face, and possessing exceptional speaking skills, it would seem almost impossible for such an ideal man to have flaws. Only by digging deeper into the late president’s life and political affairs would Americans understand how lacking Kennedy truly was as president of one of the world’s leading nations. Kennedy was sluggish when it came to granting African Americans the rights they lacked and fought so strenuously for, his constant fear of the spread of communism also caused him to focus most of his attention on poor developing countries and less on the country he’s leading, and he also made careless mistakes which came at the cost of many innocent American lives at the Bay of Pigs.

A conspiracy theory is an explanatory proposition that accuses a person, group, or organization of having caused or covered up an event or phenomenon of great social, political, or economic impact (http://www.thefreedictionary.com/conspiracy+theory).

In John F. Kennedy’s (JFK) 1961 inaugural address, he began by acknowledging the audience, including former presidents and vice presidents before he brought his message of a “new generation of Americans- born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, [and] proud of our ancient heritage…” This new generation was to inspire and change, not only the America they lived in, but the world. His message was empowering and direct while effectively persuading his audience, of both United States citizens and citizens of the World. Through his use of anaphora, parallelism, and pathos, President Kennedy was able to portray the picture and message in his mind.

It’s Dallas, TX 1963 and John F. Kennedy drives through downtown and three shots ring out from the third story of a book depository...the President is dead. John F. Kennedy was born to Joseph P. and Rose Kennedy in 1917 and had eight siblings.

In October 1962, the Kennedy administration was forced to manage the most dangerous confrontation of the Cold War era: The Cuban Missile Crisis. In fact, considering the threat of nuclear war at play, the Cuban Missile Crisis could be considered the most dangerous confrontation in all of human history. Because of the clear significance of this crisis, it serves as the ideal case study through which to dissect the presidency. This analysis of the Kennedy administration reveals the deepening divide between “doves” and “hawks,” the importance of Kennedy’s personal advisors, and the power Robert Kennedy had over his brother. To better understand the significance of these factors, I will do an analysis of seven meetings JFK attended from the time of the introduction of the crisis, leading up to his speech to the American public and official message to Moscow.

Unlike Kennedy, Lee Harvey Oswald, his assassin was not such a likable person. At first Lee joined the U.S. Navy, but that didn 't end up going so well for him. He felt that the workers in the U.S. were being treated like slaves and he wanted to leave. Therefor, he decided to go join the Soviet Union in Russia, where he believed his beliefs would be more welcomed. One thing that is very obvious in
