PLZ ANSWER (about JFK) In lesson 5.02, you learned that a counterclaim is the statement of the reasons people might disagree with the claim.

Does Kennedy mention a counterclaim? If so, how does he prove the counterclaim wrong or weaken it?
Use evidence from the text to support your answer if you found a counterclaim.

I wrote this just now! I take AP US History as well as AP English, so I am a good writer. I hope you find this suitable! :)

In Lesson 5.02, I read about President John F. Kennedy's views on America, government, and the future of the economy. In paragraph 20 of the Lesson, Kennedy does mention a counterclaim. He states, "I know that there are those who want to turn everything over to the Government. I don't at all. I want the individuals to meet their responsibilities and I want the States to meet their responsibilities. But I think there is also a national responsibility." In this quote, he recognizes the existence of ideas that differ from his, while simultaneously proving the counterclaim wrong. He says that while others want to turn all responsibility over to the government, he does not agree with that. He also provides a plan on how this will be accomplished later on in the lesson, especially in Paragraph 24, where he says, "I believe in effective governmental action, and I think that's the only way that the United States is going to maintain its freedom." Essentially, he agrees that effective governmental action is the way that the USA can best progress as a country.
