It Used To Be That, Once History Was Done, It Was Written Down And It Was Done

The above Subject is the way it used to be. Now we change history to match up with the way things are now. Or said differently… We change history to match up with the way things should have been, if only the past was as enlighten as we are today.

 

This quote was sent to me in an email from a well respected organization. It is a quote of the words of John F. Kennedy…“A nation reveals itself not only by the men and women it produces, but also by the men and women it honors, the men and women it remembers.“

 

The problem is President Kennedy did not say these exact words. His historically accurate quote did not include…“and women” and “and women” and “and women”.

 

The actual historic quote was…“A nation reveals itself not only by the men it produces, but also by the men it honors, the men it remembers.“

 

I looked it up on The Internet and copied and pasted below the first five references I found...
