I’ve never understood why the Kennedy family is considered by some to be American royalty. What did they ever do to deserve such accolades? Who decided that they should be celebrities/quasi-royalty?

Sheer self assertive hubris.

Because the Kennedy family made the ultimate sacrifice by having two brothers assassinated and the media had the template to drive the liberal agenda...

Kennedy Camelot was a great media marketing ploy...

Not that they've been reported doing things like talking to trees like King George III (they may have, but the MSM hasn't reported it. They only report Kennedy scandals when there's an arrest or death.), but there seems to be a solid streak of insanity in the clan.

Can you think of any of those Kennedys that you'd want to have as your next door neighbor? I sure can't.

The liberal “media” aka “mainstream media” crowned them during the so-called Camelot years. I’ve had to put up with that Kennedy as royalty thing since the election of 1960.
