John F. Kennedy proposes the Peace Corps on the 1960 campaign trail
Medium shot of Senator John F. Kennedy, wearing a dark suit and tie, standing at a well-decorated lectern. There is a large crowd and American flags visible behind him. He says: "I therefore propose that our inadequate efforts in this area be supplemented by a Peace Corps of talented young men and women, willing and able to serve their country in this fashion for three years as an alternative or as a supplement to peacetime selective service. Well-qualified..." Kennedy is then cut off by applause from the crowd.
