约翰·费茨杰拉德·肯尼迪（英语：John Fitzgerald Kennedy，1917年5月29日－1963年11月22日），通常被称作约翰·F·肯尼迪（John F. Kennedy）、JFK 或杰克·肯尼迪（Jack 1 Kennedy），美国第35任总统，美国著名的肯尼迪家族成员，他的执政时间从1961年1月20日开始到1963年11月22日在达拉斯遇刺身亡为止。
肯尼迪在1942年曾是一名海军中尉，在1946年-1960年期间曾先后任众议员和参议员，并于1960年当选为美国总统，43岁的年纪为美国截至2015年最年轻的当选总统。也是美国历史上迄今唯一信奉罗马天主教的总统和唯一获得普利策奖的总统。
John Fitzgerald "Jack" Kennedy was born in 1917 and was assassinated 2 in 1963. He is also known by his initials JFK. Kennedy was the 35th President of the United States. Of Irish descent, he was born in Massachusetts and graduated from Harvard in 1940. He joined the Navy and in 1943 his boat was sunk by the Japanese. Despite grave injuries, he led the survivors 3 through perilous 4 waters to safety.
Back from the war, JFK became a Democratic Congressman 5, advancing to the Senate in 1953. He married Jacqueline Bouvier in 1953. In 1955, he wrote “Profiles in Courage”, which won the Pulitzer Prize in history. In 1960 millions watched his television debates with the Republican candidate, Richard M. Nixon. He won the presidency 6 by a narrow margin 7 and became the first Roman Catholic President.
His Inaugural 8 Address offered the memorable 9 words: "Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country." As President, he set out to keep his campaign promise to get America moving again. His economic programs launched the country on its longest economic growth since World War II. He also took vigorous action in the cause of equal rights.
Kennedy increased the nation's military strength and spending on the space race during the Cold War. He confronted Russia when it tried to put nuclear missiles in Cuba. While the world trembled on the brink 10 of nuclear war, the Russians backed down. On November 22, 1963, hardly past his first thousand days in office, JFK was assassinated. He was the youngest man elected President and the youngest to die.
