  • There IS another brother

    As a respected senior leader in the Senate, emminence gris of the Party and counsellor to a Democratic president - if there were something, wouldn't Ted Kennedy have have brought it to light?

    Bill Clinton constantly referenced JFK - including that famous photograph of their meeting at the White House - and counted Jacqueline Kennedy among his friends. Having assumed all the levers of power, wouldn't he have pursued it? (Or Jimmy Carter, for that matter - a self-proclaimed man of honour and integrity - particularly at a time when so many of the alleged participants were still readily available to him).

    Was the next generation of the Kennedy family (among them, several aggressive activists, lawyers, politicians )completely satisfied...or, with children of their own, encouraged to accept the 'received wisdom'?

    I've always wondered how it was that Teddy Kennedy was left to age gracefully into a full, fruitful life.

    Was a deal made to "just let it go"?
