JFK didn't write his own speeches either for the most part, he was still a heck of an orator.

A friend of mine was one of his speech writers. JFK would change words and construction depending on how he liked it. The speech writers learned and he made less and less changes.

What you don't know is he would try things out on the golf course with his friend Buddy Hackett.
