An article distributed by the Associated Press looks at a new museum, "The Kennedies," being opened in Berlin, Germany, that commemorates the visit by President John F. Kennedy to that city on June 26, 1963, and quotes Andrea Daum, professor of history, who said, "He certainly caught the mood of the moment. It was the moment where rhetoric, charisma and policies seemed to be congruent -- and that moment has never been repeated." The article appeared in roughly 100 outlets in the U.S. and Canada, including The New York Times. Go to article.
