Red, there's more.
Kennedy then turns to a life of liberalism thinking that he can redeem himself and clear his conscious by being a big-daddy government type to people in need.
But it doesn't work. His liberalism only leads to creating more people in need.
Unable to face this failure, the icon politician then turns to alcohol binging and food gorging and even more liberalism.
All destined to fail the now fat, aging pol should admit once and for all to himself that he dunked that poor girl in the Oldsmobile, that he should stop torturing the good people of this country and that he should just go away.
conscious --> conscience
I believe you are giving teddy more credit then he deserves.......he has only been buying votes with his liberalism.........his dream was the White House......that he didn't get there as president like his brother is his big regret.
