Quotable moment: Billy Graham played a round with JFK in Palm Beach

After John F. Kennedy defeated Graham’s pal Richard Nixon in the 1960 election, he invited the preacher-to-presidents down to Palm Beach for a round or two.

Round meaning golf, not alcohol.

During the game at the Palm Beach Country Club, Graham missed a putt.

“Kennedy said, jokingly, ‘Well, I thought you were a good golfer,’” wrote biographer Professor Grant Wacker of Duke Divinity School. “Graham rolled with it, replying, ‘I am when I’m not playing with the president of the United States.’”
