He says, "the first time I can remember crying publicly, except for as a very little boy, was when John Kennedy died. Particularly watching his son. That image is still, up until Sept. 11, that image was very much a part of my life growing up. And then on Sept. 11 and after that to go to so many (funerals), and to see so many little boys and girls standing there looking at their daddy's coffin." A young college student, Giuliani was already thinking about his future. Of Kennedy, he says, "Probably what he did was he put into my mind the desire to be involved in government."
