John F. Kennedy, in turn, gave his views to a large number of young men throughout his lifetime who served with him. In 1855 he was elected secretary of state, for two years as the fourth president. During his second term, he was elected to the post and held it until 1858. When in 1850 he became the president’s fifth child, the first baby John F. Kennedy was born just over that period, and, like his father earlier in his life, would become the youngest president of the United States (ever!). While serving his second term during the First World War, Kennedy wrote a book in which he argued that the U.S. should be proud of the accomplishments of its former great powers and of all the efforts that had gone into building them. This book and other seminal works in human history will help you find new ideas to put all your hard-earned wisdom into practice, and, perhaps most importantly, bring you new lessons. This is where many people who are unfamiliar with the concept of America’s role will be most impressed. Some of Kennedy’s most lasting effects came from his role as first prime minister of the United States. He had helped to establish relations with the British monarchy, and he personally helped secure the ratification of the Declaration of Independence. He had also been one of the first leaders to express solidarity with the oppressed on both sides of the Atlantic in the fight against the French Revolution. He had also made the first attempt to form an alliance with the Italian communists. It is often said that John F. Kennedy was the only president who recognized the importance of alliances between the United States and its allies, and that the United States and the many other nations whose people were engaged in those alliances did not have to choose between the United
