Members Greg's GL Posted August 26, 2009 Members Share Posted August 26, 2009 He will be greatly missed. He was one of Obama's first allies from the Senate and not only that, had such a rich history serving his country. A reliable liberal. We need more people like him. RIP. Does the Kennedy dynasty die with him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SnCCorinthos4ever Posted August 26, 2009 Author Members Share Posted August 26, 2009 Yes he will be missed. The Kennedy's were as close to a Royal family that America could have, and I do think that the dynasty has ended with his death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members UCLAN Posted August 27, 2009 Members Share Posted August 27, 2009 I agree. I think the Kennedy dynasty dies with Teddy. My neice said it clearly when she said that no remaining family member has the pull of those brothers especially since John Jr died. Ted Kennedy did much for this country. I will be forever greatful to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jess Posted August 27, 2009 Members Share Posted August 27, 2009 Ted Kennedy made a difference. He carried the torch very well. I think maybe the Kennedy political dynasty is at an end. I hope what it stood for isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Greg's GL Posted August 27, 2009 Members Share Posted August 27, 2009 I've seen quite a bit of photos of him and his brothers since his passing. It's still very sad to think that he was the only son to die an old man. Regardless, he did do alot for this country and I agree with y'all that the Kennedy's political dynasty is probably gone with him. Perhaps if JFK Jr. was still with us, things would be different.

Members Scotty Posted August 29, 2009 Members Share Posted August 29, 2009 Now there is only one of the nine siblings left...a sister Jean Kennedy Smith. Also, Ted Kennedy's son Patrick is currently a U.S. Senator from Rhode Island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
