Here it is, in cold, hard black-and-white prose, a damning indictment of President John F. Kennedy in his own words...

From a dinner honoring Nobel Prize Winners April 29, 1962:
I want to tell you how welcome you are to the White House. I think this is the most extraordinary collection of talent, of human knowledge, that has ever been gathered together at the White House, with the possible exception of when Thomas Jefferson dined alone.
Someone once said that Thomas Jefferson was a gentleman of 32 who could calculate an eclipse, survey an estate, tie an artery, plan an edifice, try a cause, break a horse, and dance the minuet.
Whatever he may have lacked, if he could have had his former colleague, Mr. Franklin, here we all would have been impressed.
Irrefutable proof: John F. Kennedy praised Thomas Jefferson, white slave owner and perhaps the paramour of some of his female slaves.
Kennedy may not have known about the paramour part, but he certainly knew Jefferson was a slave owner.
Kennedy Airport, Kennedy Center, thousands of schools and streets: erase the name of this obvious racist who praised a slave owner.
No historical sin is too small that it should not be rectified after the fact by erasing all memorials to -in a better world all memories of - the sinner. To be replaced, of course, by those many historical figures who were perfect.
