This quote is also used in a chapter 'The uses and abuses of GNP' by Dowrick
and Quiggin in the book edited by Eckersley. Dowrick and Quiggin give the
source as Kennedy R F 'Recapturing Americas moral vision', 18 March 1968.
In 'RFK: Collected Speeches, Viking Press, 1993.
This book isn't in the OU library. But I wonder if a member of this list
might find it in their library and look to see if there is more detail of
interest? Such as clues as to why this speech seems to have been
forgotten about for several decades.
