I heard that Ted’s wish was that Caroline become a Senator, so that a Kennedy would be in the U.S. Senate after he was gone.

It didn’t happen, as Caroline’s efforts to be appointed to the Senate vaporized.

But, to me, it reveals a mindset that somehow these Kennedys think they are entitled to power, entitled to public office.

Then again, they wouldn’t be there if people didn’t vote for them. What do you do, when mindless voters, who will vote for anything running as a Democrat, keep electing Kennedys????

I’ve never understood how so many people have come to revere the Kennedy family as some sort of American royalty.

I also fail to understand people talking about the many tragedies of the Kennedy family. The assassinations are true tragedies, in my opinion. But some people lump in Chappaquiddick or the William Kennedy Smith rape case into Kennedy family tragedies. To me, self inflicted wounds are hardly on the same level as political assassinations.

Agreed, but again Barney Frank’s old district saw fit to elect Joe-Joe-Joe Kennedy the IIIrd or 4th or whatever (son of “Joe for Oil” who in turn was one of RFK’s sons)
