Two paragraphs from this page are a direct copy from The Reader's Companion to American History. I am deleting them due to the copyright infringment.Leuliett 05:18, 1 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

We should redo those to cover what the material said, in a legitimate manner. Good eye. --Northmeister 15:04, 1 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Economy edit

I have removed "Taxes were lowered 16% - 20%" from the top of economy, if anyone can find proof for this, feel free to reinsert it.

"Manpower Development and Training Act" redirects to here, where there is only one paragraph. If you know more about it, please add more to what little is written about this legislation, or even move it to a new page."Techyactor15 (talk) 23:32, 27 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

Quotation from Kennedy speech - threats or dreams edit

Dear Kierzek, the source cited in the article as well as the audio of the speech show that Kennedy said "the frontier of unfilled hopes and unfilled threats", not "the frontier of unfilled hopes and unfilled dreams" (as is often quoted). What is your thought or evidence in reverting my correction? With kind regards. 188.102.9.166 (talk) 18:57, 8 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

There is a difference in the wording, per different RS text. However, I went and carefully listened to audio and the former often quoted text is in error so I changed it again when comparing different text and audio. Cheers, Kierzek (talk) 22:44, 8 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

Critique as to space? edit

What on Earth does this mean? It doesn't make any sense! So spaceships are racist?! Or something like that. We should remove this section. Island Pelican (talk) 03:27, 2 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

If there were notable critiques of Kennedy's views on space exploration, that would be worthy of mention regardless of the merit of the critiques. However, of the four sources cited here, only one of them contains the words "New Frontier" or makes any reference to Kennedy[1], and I don't think that source is notable enough to merit a whole section in the New Frontier page. If it belongs anywhere, it belongs on Space policy of the United States, not on this page. I'm removing the "Critique as to space" section. Sonicsuns (talk) 19:33, 14 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
