Kennedy entered the presidential limousine at Love Field in Dallas, Texas on November 22, 1963, he began his ride into history. That journey continues even today and we call it the Kennedy legacy. <\/p>\n<p>This course will explore the Presidency, assassination, and lasting legacy of President John F. Kennedy. Students will learn how JFK\u2019s life, administration, and tragic death have influenced the general public, the media, and each of the nine U.S. presidents who followed.<\/p>\n<p>Understanding the Kennedy legacy and being able to identify elements of his legacy within the context of modern politics helps understand many of the vexing problems that developed over the last half century as well as many of the challenges that confront us today.    <\/p>\n<p>November 22, 1963 was so powerful a moment that in the fifty years since the assassination, every U.S. President that followed JFK has used Kennedy\u2019s words and actions in an effort to craft their own political image. Why does Kennedy\u2019s influence persist, and will it continue? What are the effects? <\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ll address these questions and more as we explore The Kennedy Half Century. <\/p>\n<p>Follow on Twitter: @JFKclass.<\/p>\n<div style=\"height:45px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center\">Price: Enroll For Free!<\/h2>\n<div style=\"height:45px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-very-light-gray-color has-background has-vivid-red-background-color\" href=\"https:\/\/www.coursera.org\/learn\/kennedy\">View Class<\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"height:55px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em><strong>Language:<\/strong> <\/em>English<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em><strong>Subtitles<\/strong>: <\/em>English<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"background-color:#496d89\" class=\"has-text-color has-background has-text-align-center has-very-light-gray-color\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coursera.org\/learn\/kennedy\">The Kennedy Half Century<strong> &#8211; University of Virginia<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Description When John F.
