RE: [tips] info: Kennedy
Linda- And a pretty good industry selling such items to Americans (recognizing the mistake in that also) and other tourists. I have an Ich bin ein Berliner doughnut key-chain a friend purchased in Berlin. She stated that there were several places that sold such memorabilia in Berlin- including coffee mugs, t-shirts, key-chains, etc.. So it is an interesting twist on their affection for JFK that they are willing to make a few bucks on misinformed US citizens- one way or another.
