Remember reading once the Kennedys paid Mary Jo's family about 150K (worth probably close to one million today). Her parents (now deceased) are reported to have bought a new house not long after the accident.

Ted also has said he would prefer his wife Victoria to succeed him in the Senate, but it would not surprise me in the least to see Caroline instead. Ted's seat originally belonged to JFK, and the Kennedy family considers that seat to belong to the family.

I always thought it was the people of Massachusetts's seat... but I'm from Texas, what the heck do I know. the people in his state are represented by him and that should tell everybody a couple of things about people that would elect him over and over...

I didn't know that we had hereditary seats in the senate and house of representatives.
