Ich bin ein Berliner

[Gerald Cohen]

Allan Metcalf correctly  suspects that (Reinhold) Aman convincingly
rejected the notion that  Kennedy was understood to say "I am a
jelly-doughnut." Aman's article appeared in his publication _Maledicta_,
but I do not have the exact reference handy.  I'll get ahold of it tomorrow
and share it with ADS-L.
