(11,464 posts)Ted Kennedy was the most liberal of the three brothers.
President Obama is more liberal than JFK or Bobby was.(Yes, he is.)
Ted Kennedy passed the mantle of the Kennedy name to President Obama.
Ted Kennedy, what would Teddy, Caroline, JFK Jr. have done in 2013. That is the question.
All the rest is hyperbole.
Because Teddy was THERE for 45 years, and Teddy, before Obama, played the game of politics the best it was played since LBJ was majority leader.
So, what would Ted Kennedy in 2013 do. That is the question.
The other question is-what price of gasoline is acceptable to those in the USA?
Because both are tied together.
Hyperbole aside.
And I am not so sure Bobby Jr. is a good spokesmen for the Kennedy family when it comes to President Obama. There are many, many Kennedy's. Bobby Jr. always seems to be the one
furthest away from the mainstream, and Bobby Kennedy himself was not the ultraliberal the kiddies these days think he was.
The odd thing is, when people put President Obama down, and say he is to the right,
the odd thing is, President Obama is to the left of Bobby and Jack, but equal to Teddy.
So it comes back to
What would Teddy in 2013 do (if only he were here. The one thing President Obama missed in his first term, was not having Teddy strongarm the others in the Senate as Teddy was one to do masterfully.
That is the single saddest thing. Imagine if Teddy were there the entire time.(and still was.)
Damn cellphones.
And imagine if JFK Jr. were here.
