Will always be in the shadow of the more competent Robert, who will always be in the shadow of the much more competent John F.

Please, spare me the Camelot worship.  The most Presidential thing JFK ever did was get shot.  Had it not been for Oswald, he'd have gone down in history as a medium-weight two-term president.

Wow, it's like with Mary, Queen of Scots. Who'd remember her if she was not first reigning monarch executed? Wink

Who? Tongue

Not my favorite of the Kennedy brothers, but he's still a FF for his work fighting for equal rights and universal healthcare.

It's a shame he won't pass Thurmond for longest serving senator, as he did much more good for this country than ol' Strom ever did.  Not saying legislative accomplishments = time in legislature, but you know what I mean.
Kennedy never could have passed Thurmond, Byrd already did that three years ago. Tongue

I certainly would not have minded seeing Kennedy pass Byrd., but that has more to do with Robert than Teddy.
