Poll: "Ich bin ein Berliner"
Those were the historical legendary words which tied America and Germany together like no others. John Fitzgerald Kennedy (IMDb) was the one President of the United States who said them on June 26, 1963 in Berlin. The occasion was a celebration of the American help to overcome the Russian blockade on West-Berlin. With their airplanes the Airforce built an airlift to support the Berlins with food. They were also called "raisin bombers". Kennedy was there to celebrate the friendship of America and Germany 15 years after.
John Kennedy was born on May 29, 1917 in Brookline, Massachuetts, and was shot in a sniper ambush on November 22, 1963 in Dallas, Texas. The circumstances of his assassination are still foggy, somehow. But many Germans will never forget his words of states friendship.
There were many productions made about John F. Kennedy and the Kennedys and their circumstances in general. (Informations for the options gathered from Wikipedia.)
