EVIDENCE ? Senator Obama?s father came in September 1960, while EISENHOWER was President. SOURCE 1, SOURCE 2
COUNTER CLAIM ? But his father did come to the U.S. so what is the big deal?
REBUTTAL ? Senator Obama misrepresents historical events. No speech by President John F. Kennedy brought Senator Obama?s father to the U.S. in 1960. John F. Kennedy was not President in 1960, Dwight D. Eisenhower was President. The Senator is attempting to subtly equate himself with J.F.K., subconsciously implying he would be a similar President. Senator Obama, you are no Jack Kennedy.
VERDICT - SENATOR OBAMA, YOU ARE A LIAR

Kennedy gave some great speeches in the 50's. 'Profiles in Courage' came out in the mid fifties which earned him a Pulitzer in like 1957. And he spoke nationally about the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1957.
VERDICT - GFY POSTER, YOU'VE NEVER TAKEN AN AMERICAN HISTORY CLASS

Lame argument.
