Want a good Teddy book, find “Teddy Bare”, that was the last book I read about him and I don’t care to read anymore of them. To think there are people in this country that actually wanted him as President. Probably the same types that elected our current leader.

I've never figured out why, but there's a wine club in the northeast for whom the Kennedys are royalty. The best quote I read about Ted's aspirations for the presidency was, "In Massachusetts, it's not illegal to run against a Kennedy, but it is considered to be in very bad taste. The rest of the country is not so enamored."
Still, the Kennedy name is gold to an ever decreasing bunch of second and third generation millionaires who have few accomplishments, but believe that inheriting property in Martha's Vineyard is proof of moral superiority.

Best book ever written on Ted Kennedy and still available on Amazon.Com.
I heard when the book was first printed, the Kennedy clan bought and destroyed the first editions in hopes it would not see the light of day. When that backfired, they treatened major bookstores and other distributors to ensure it would be hard to get, so it ended up being distributed independently. True or not, the book is probably the best account of the incident and cover-up out there.
