1961\nvice president johnson, mr. speaker, mr. chief justice, president\neisenhower, vice president nixon, president truman, reverend\nclergy, fellow citizens.\n1 we observe today not a victory of party but a celebration of\nfreedom - symbolizing an end as well as a beginning - signifying\nrenewal as well as change. for i have sworn before you and\nalmighty god the same solemn oath our forbears prescribed\nnearly a century and three - quarters ago.\n2 the world is very different now. for man holds in his mortal\nhands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty and all\nforms of human life. and yet the same revolutionary beliefs for\nwhich our forebears fought are still at issue around the globe - the\nbelief that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the\nstate but from the hand of god.\n3 we dare not forget today that we are the heirs of that first\nrevolution. let the word go forth from this time and place, to\nfriend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new\ngeneration of americans - born in this century, tempered by war,\ndisciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient\nhonitage - and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of\nthose human rights to which this nation has always been\ncommitted, and to which we are committed today at home and\naround the world.\n4 let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we\nshall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support\nany friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success\nof liberty.\n5 this much we pledge - and more.\n6 to those old allies whose cultural and spiritual origins we\nshare, we pledge the loyalty of faithful friends. united there is little\nwe cannot do in a host of cooperative ventures. divided there is\nlittle we can do - for we dare not meet a powerful challenge at\nselect the correct answer.\nhow does kennedy order his points in the speech?\na. by first describing his commitment to help other countries and then providing a timeline in which to do it\nb. by first outlining a threat to human rights and then promising assistance to the poor and oppressed\nc. by first acknowledging the beliefs of the countrys forebears and then offering a pledge to help other countries\nd. by first celebrating his victory as the new president and then vowing to promote unity among his allies
