This is Senator John Kennedy speaking to the people of Massachusetts. I ask your support in this campaign. I've represented Massachusetts in the Congress for 14 years and during the past months I've traveled to nearly every state in the Union. But I come from Massachusetts and I need your help in this campaign. This is a campaign to build a stronger and a better country, to revitalize our economy, to keep our people working, to build an image of a free society here in the United States that will cause people around the world to say, I want to go the way America is going. I ask your support in this campaign. I believe that I can serve Massachusetts and the country as president. I believe we must build a stronger America. I ask your help in doing so. Vote for John F Kennedy for president.
