One of the most iconic and remembered democrat presidents in American history made that statement, and that same president would not even be allowed in today's democrat party.
Most of today's democrats only ask "what their country can do for them". They sell their votes for government giveaways.
JFK was a Conservative war monger, supply side, tax cuts for the rich, voodoo economics Democrat president.
That was the first line. The second line is "But remember. Any sacrifice you make for your country will eventually be pis*ed away by a liberal democrat. Always vote Republican."
an 1884 speech, Oliver Wendell Holmes said: "recall what our country has done for each of us, and to ask ourselves what we can do for our country in return."
Warren Harding in 1916 at the Republican convention echoed a similar statement: "we must have a citizenship less concerned about what the government can do for it and more anxious about what it can do for the nation." That line is on display in Harding's own handwriting at his Marion, Ohio home.
Kennedy speechwriter Arthur Schlesinger admitted that the line had antecedents but he said that the thought was Kennedy's own when Kennedy recorded a quotation from Rousseau in 1945: As soon as any man says of the affairs of state, What does it matter to me? the state
