    Finally the Jack can burn in for murdering Mary Jo Kopechne 40 years ago!

    A Murder the government & the Catholic Church supported so he could divorce is wife of 40 years

    HE also got kicked out of Harvard..for cheating!

    When the Kennedy’s finally moved out of Palm Beach, Florida, the crime rate dropped 34%!

    Americans have the Government they deserve!

    It is just stupid for people to keep pointing out his mistake at Chappaquiddick in ‘69. At the end of the day he was human. That being said Ted Kennedy was one of America’s greatest statesmen. He will be greatly missed!

    Why do people always remember our failures. Kennedy did much to make up for this lapse of judgment 40 years ago. Let it go. He was a great man and will be missed.

    SHOUDLNT VOTE SOMEONE IN FOR BEING WHITE
    SHOULDNT VOTE SOMEONE IN TO MAKE IT HISTORIC FOR BLACK PEOPLE
    YOU SHOULD ELECT THE BEST MAN FOR THE JOB
    AND DO WHATS RIGHT FOR THE PEOPLE
