The Kennedy myths and legends were largely the creation of dynasty’s (crime family more like it)founder, Joseph Kennedy Sr who made vast fortune in various shady activities including stock market manipulation, insider trading, and other questionable practices. Kennedy Sr., more than most understood the power of advertising and pioneered the use of political advertising. Long before Jack was mixed up with Marilyn Monroe and the Hollywood rat pack, Kennedy Sr. pioneered in myth making churning out low budget movies in Tinsel Town and cavorting with famous actresses. Kennedy told his children, it doesn’t matter who you are, but what people think you are. He was a man who believed that money could buy anything and was an expert at media manipulation and creating false images and myths. Only a man like Joe Kennedy could have turned a disaster like the loss of PT-109 into an heroic feat, and turned his son’s lazy and lackluster record in Congress into a major presidential candidate. Sound familiar? No...BHO did not have the advantage of having a wealthy and powerful father buying his way into public office. But like the Kennedys, an adoring and slavelike media and Hollywood establishment plus lots of radical Left billionaires to help finance his campaigns.
Joe was a Hitler-lover as well.

Was there a law against insider trading back then?
