“In whatever arena of life one may meet the challenge of courage, whatever may be the sacrifices he faces if he follows his conscience – the loss of his friends, his fortune, his contentment, even the esteem of his fellow men – each man must decide for himself the course he will follow.”
-- John F. Kennedy

"The true democracy, living and growing and inspiring ... will not condemn those whose devotion to principle leads them to unpopular courses, but will reward courage, respect honor, and ultimately recognize right."
--John F. Kennedy

A few examples of political courage by JFK:

1. The Cuban-Missile Crisis
2. The Civil Rights Movement
3. The Bay of Pigs (he took full responsibility)
4. Vietnam (while he was in office he did not allow the conflict to escalate)
5. Nuclear Test Ban Treaty

there became a conspiracy, yet Oswald might have killed Kennedy on his very own besides. The sound recordings, photographs, and ballistics archives all help the tip of the Warren fee. No authentic data to the different exists. there became a mysterious loss of protection, there have been unusual connections, Oswald's existence tale is in some techniques remarkable, many witnesses and knowledgeable intelligence operatives died with out telling all they knew, and various useful actors had motives to have Kennedy killed and seem in contact with people who performed a place in Oswald's existence or dying. Many questions do no longer and could by no ability have passable solutions. Oswald might have killed Kennedy on my own, with that gun, that day. there is not any good data in any different case.

Political courage could be defined as having the guts to vote for what you believe in and not just what the party which you belong to says is the right thing.
