Ever since the Kennedy announcement, and the fawning of the media, I've been thinking of this article that I remember from 12 years ago! I remember reading this and discussing it with my Dad, In fact, I think my Dad showed it to me. That a sign of a great article, huh? Remember it 12 years later.

It's so spot on.

You have encouraged me to repost an article I have never forgotten, and one that is relevant today. I’ll ping you (provided I can find it and it still exists in its entirety).
