REPORT: Caroline Kennedy Preparing to DEFEAT Donald Trump in Historic Move
Learn Progress ^ | 26/1/17

Posted on 01/27/2017 1:24:30 AM PST by Eleutheria5

Caroline Kennedy lost her Ambassador post in Japan when Trump took office. He sent her packing and hasn’t even bothered to name a replacement.

But according to the New York Post, she’s not done with public service. Kennedy is planning to run for the U.S. senate in 2018.

First, she’s going to be penning a memoir, but then she’ll be getting down to work. She plans to follow in the footsteps of her uncle Robert Kennedy, and run for a New York senate seat.

She plans to target the seat of Democratic Senator Kristen Gillibrand. Or she could run for Rep. Kristen Gillibrand’s House seat instead.

This is great news for progressives. Caroline Kennedy has the Kennedy name and recognition, but none of the baggage.

.....

Kennedy has a net worth...Kennedy trust funds.

She has much of the popularity of Elizabeth Warren and Hillary Clinton among Progressives, but no baggage. So securing campaign donations won’t be a problem.

But her aspirations don’t end there. According to an unnamed source, “Caroline had a successful ambassadorial run in Japan and feels really very confident about putting her hat in the ring for a New York congressional or Senate seat, with even possibly bigger political objectives down the road”

“Down the road” could include a run for president in 2020. She would be a strong candidate to run against the Republicans.

Are you excited about Caroline Kennedy’s political aspirations? Please share this post on Facebook.

Didn't read the header nor the article, did ya.

Caroline has NO plans to run in Mass., would have to move there NOW, in order to run, and no doubt would LOSE there anyway!

This idiot was trying to run in N.Y., but couldn't even make it to the PRIMARY, before she was picked, as a consolation prize, to be an ambassador.

Don’t feel bad....far too many other posters, who posted at a more “normal” hour, made the same mistake and refuse to leave it all alone, posting twaddle.

If the Clintons were looking for a "safe" seat, the would have have had her run from Ill.! But the senate seat run was just a step on her ROAD TO THE WHITE HOUSE strategy, so the moved to N.Y., had the vast majority of the papers, local T.V. stations, and all of the Dem pols, whom they had in their pockets, help her.

Like it or not, N.Y. is a BIG DEAL, prominent, and also a place to gather not just local, but NATIONAL "celebrity"/name recognition, nationwise, AND the home of a lot of the BIG DONORS!

She didn’t run from Ill. either and it’s because that N.Y. really was a far better launching pad.

Wasn't the Chels supposed to first run for a House seat?

IIRC, it is Nita Lowey's seat and she has already said that she's NOT stepping down for old Chels.

The ONLY Kennedy, who supposedly had any intellect/brains, was the eldest brother, who was killed in WW II. Oh, okay, perhaps Bobby had some; he had far more brains ( in an EVIL way )than JFK did.

JFK didn't write PROFILES IN COURAGE, strings were pulled, BIG TIME, for him to be an officer in WW II, he crashed that PT boat, and was an utter dimbulb as president.

Is she ambidextrous or something?

Simultaneously holding two seats makes her ambigluteous.

The vast majority of the American populace have NO idea WHO JFK was and the Kennedy name is no longer shock&awe&love inducing.

Yes sir Vet,

After reading your post #12 it's obvious you think big enough to be Ms Kennedy's campaign manager. /s

Good stuff buddy. I laughed my a$$ off after reading your post.

JFK didn’t crash his boat. He wasn’t paying attention and wandered into the path of the Tokyo Express.
