The inauguration of John F. Kennedy as the 35th President of the United States was held on Friday, January 20, 1961 at the eastern portico of the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C.. The inauguration marked the commencement of John F. Kennedy's only term as President and of Lyndon B. Johnson's only term as Vice President. Kennedy was assassinated 2 years, 306 days into this term, and Johnson succeeded to the presidency.
It was also in his inaugural address that John F. Kennedy spoke his famous words, "ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country."

But 'what' to do for 'your' country?
To 'give' or to 'take'?
In the 1960's many might not have been 'well off' enough to ask, 'What shall I do for 'my' country''. Many might have known what 'to do'. Today, since many are alot 'better off' than then, many can ask, 'What shall I do'? 'What shall I do with my 'spare' time'?

'Why no pants, JFK, Jr'?
