People like Bill Turner twist JFK's comments to suit their own biased learnings.  JFK can not refute Turner's twist because sadly he is no longer with us.  What Turner does not say or maybe does not remember is that JFK, beginning his campaign for president in 1957, consistently ran on a campaign promise to provide medical care for seniors who were not able to even buy insurance because of their age.  He did not live to see his promise made real by his Democratic Congress that passed  medicare in 1965. Those of us, young and able bodied, who answered Kennedy's call knew he did not intent to exploit the old and the sick, but rather provide for them.  Turner and his ilk have to appropriate our Democratic heros because they have none of their own.
