Kennedy by Comparison

Kennedy's speech (see below) inspired me to consider some of the many differences between his politics and politics today. So, I thought, why not do a running commentary with clips from that speech, as a kind of conversation? This is a first test podcast, if you will -- and there'll be several more test podcasts before the elves at Electric Politics settle on the right method(s) of doing this. Listen. Enjoy.

Oh, and while we're wondering how JFK would have thought about things modern, you shouldn't miss the interesting Op-ed, "What Would JFK Have Done," by Theodore C. Sorenson and Arthur Schlesinger, Jr., in yesterday's New York Times.
