4. Ted Kennedy deserves more accolades than we can possibly give him. |
|
He was a good man who dedicated his life to others.

Joe Kennedy (maybe with RFK Jr. as VP) in 2016? Biden will be too old to run then. Joe Kennedy left a comfortable D.C. job to take on the difficult task of providing free oil to the very needy in Massachusetts. That's the Kennedy way. It could have been his cousin JFK Jr. in 2016 if he were still alive. I think Joe would be up to it. They wanna run 'regular folk' candidates like Palin, we have a regular folk with a brain and unlike her, good intentions for America. He's up to the task. It's early, I know. But keep that in mind. He'd be a great person to fill Ted's seat in the Senate in the meantime. Again, if he wanted the task. He's doing great things now for people in need.

6. I forgot that Teddy took in RFK's family and gave them support following his death. |

I believe he did the same with JFK's family as well -although I don't know for sure. When Joseph Kennedy mentioned that in the eulogy I began to shed tears. Not because of any emotional connection I would have for Mr. Kennedy, but because of my ability to relate to that on a personal level, and how people who deserve so much credit for expressing such selflessness in the support of others when they need it most too often go forgotten -or taken for granted. Joseph Kennedy Jr's words helped me to remember how important those people are in my life and how we should never forget them or take them for granted.
