This essay is about John F. Kennedy. He had been president more than a thousand days. He had a wife named Jaqueline. He had planned a disastrous invasion of Cuba. He did achieve a lot. This is about using a primary source and secondary source to see how they relate about the same topic and what are the differences.
In the primary source and secondary source, they both provide the same information on when he died. He died on November 22, 1963. They also provide the same information about how the world mourns and how his press secretary mourns.
In the primary source the tone is more of facts and opinions. Or a fact representing a statement. For example, ''The sudden death of the young and vigorous American president shocked the world. Kennedy's body was brought back to the white house and placed in the East room for twenty-four hours.''
In the secondary source the tone is more of how the Kennedy's press secretary felt. More of emotions and first point of view. For example, ''I was so destroyed, I admired J.F.K. I had a feeling that not only he was lost, but that my life was lost.''
Pierre Salinger, President Kennedy's press secretary, remembers where he was and how he felt when he heard the news of Kennedy's assassination. ''I was in the plane reading the economics papers when suddenly somebody came and told me the six cabinet secretaries had to see me. They had handed me a wire bulletin saying Kennedy has been shot.'' He presents this in a way like he found out when the primary source states that he has been shot in a fact.
The primary source says how the world mourns. '' Throughout the day and night thousands of people filed past the guarded caskets. Representatives from over ninety countries attended the funeral on November twenty-five.'' Although when Pierre Salinger represents himself in shock. '' The plane turned around and headed back to Honolulu, and I was instructed to take over the communications system to the white house and find out what happened.''
Another way it shows the primary source is different from the secondary source. The primary source is filled with information. It said where Kennedy was buried.''Kennedy was buried with full military honors at the Arlington National Cemetery across the Potomac river from Washington D.C.
Another thing I noticed that was different was their titles. One of them is named Kennedy's Assassination. The other is named ''For me, it was a dramatic day.'' From Kennedy's Assassination you would expect how he died and realistic facts. From ''For me, it was a dramatic day'' you would expect emotions. It is more of a personal essay
