:15:00
But these people are right
and the Kennedys are wrong

:15:03
We need you to talk to them
They'll listen to you

:15:05
Jack and Bobby are good men
But it takes a certain kind of...

:15:07
You mean the President
of the United States?

:15:08
And the Attorney General?
:15:10
Kenny, they are good men
but it takes certain character

:15:12
moral toughness
to stand up to the Soviets

:15:15
You're in the White House right now
because of the Kennedys

:15:19
They may be wrong. They make mistakes
:15:21
But they are not weak
:15:24
The weak ones are these people
who can't speak their own minds

:15:26
You know I don't mean
that they're weak

:15:27
No, you just lack a "moral toughness"
:15:30

:15:59

Jesus Christ. They're killing us
:16:07
... and enter into negotiations...
:16:11
in order to normalize

:16:15
What is that Sun Tzu says?
:16:19
"War is a moral contest

:16:24

This is where we turn it around
:16:33
You all Adlai. You tell him
to stick it to this son of a bitch!

:16:41
The U. S. believes that
with their economic boycott

:16:44
by pressuring other countries
to cease trade with Cuba

:16:49
