In 1955, he wrote “Profiles in Courage”, which won the Pulitzer Prize in history. In 1960 millions watched his television debates with the Republican candidate, Richard M. Nixon.

二战之后，肯尼迪成为了民主党议员，并于1953年进入参议院。1953年，他与杰奎琳·布维尔完婚。1955年，他写了一本名叫《肯尼迪：信仰在风中飘扬》的书，并获得了普利策奖。1960年，上百万人都在电视机旁观看了他与共和党候选人-理查德·尼克松的辩论。他以微弱的优势获胜，并成为了第一名信仰罗马天主教的总统。
His Inaugural Address offered the memorable words: "Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what youcan do for your country." As President, he set out to keep his campaign promise to get America moving again. His economic programs launched the country on its longest economic growth since World War II. He also took vigorous action in the cause of equal rights.
他在就职典礼上说了一番让人难以忘怀的话语：“不要问国家能为你干什么；要问你能给国家干什么”。作为总统，他坚守着他在竞选时所说的承诺，即让美国再一次腾飞。二战以来，他的经济方案使得美国进入了最长时间的增长阶段。他加大力度让人民实现平等权利。
Kennedy increased the nation's military strength and spending on the space race during the Cold War. He confronted Russia when it tried to put nuclear missiles in Cuba. While the world trembled on the brink of nuclear war, the Russians backed down. On November 22, 1963, hardly past his first thousand days in office, JFK was assassinated. He was the youngest man elected President and the youngest to die.
