JFK's note card with phonetically spelled German phrases (including Ish bin ein Bearleener) for his speech in Berlin, given #otd in 1963.
@jfklibrary I remember when he said that. The Berliners went crazy. They felt so honored to hear an American president say something in their language.
@jfklibrary We need him but he would not know his own party
@jfklibrary Visited Berlin just before Easter this year, and made sure I included a stop at Rathaus Schöneberg just to see where this speech was made
@jfklibrary @jaketapper Nice! A President who can read. How quaint. #GoodOlDays
@jfklibrary @jaketapper Like to hear Trump try that.
@jfklibrary Saw this last weekend. Kind of awe inspiring.
@jfklibrary @SpeechesOfNote We've compiling great speeches of all types, famous and otherwise. Check us out. speakola.com/political/jfk-…
@jfklibrary @DavidCGoucher Very cool. I play it on youtube periodically. A different political time.
@jfklibrary @jaketapper JFK used Grman phonetic cards? Maybe Trump could try .......with English. Or (sorry S.Palin), American. Donnie don't do both good. COFEFE!!
@jfklibrary On the 29th he would stop at @ChatsworthHouse to visit Kick's grave
@jfklibrary @jaketapper Maybe the Boston accent but I understand some in that crowd were confused at why the President of the United States claimed "I am a pastry!"
