Great leaders use their speeches as a time to put a spotlight on big, bold ideas, bold goals. It's not a time to just dispense with conventional wisdom. It's a time for big ideas.
Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, to assure the survival and the success of liberty.
Here, Kennedy lays out an aggressive agenda, a bold agenda, in his inaugural address. This is a speech that's gone down in history as one of the best speeches ever, in part because of the boldness, the force of his ideas. It's not just the mundane, the small ideas, the little tweaking. It's big, bold, ambitious goals. That's what leaders do when they speak.
