  • The Humanity of Ted Kennedy
    \\jciprod01\productn\N\NYL\14-2\NYL202.txt unknown Seq: 1 11-APR-11 9:33 THE HUMANITY OF TED KENNEDY Caroline Kennedy* Good afternoon. I’ve heard a lot about NYU Law School from John so I’m happy to be here today and find out it’s all true. On behalf of the members of my family, particularly Teddy, who’s here today, I want to thank the Dean and faculty and the Journal of Legislation and Public Policy for paying tribute to my uncle’s legislative legacy. Others will talk about Teddy’s mastery of the Senate, his far- sighted chairmanship of the Judiciary and HELP Committees, and the major legislation that would not have been passed but for his passion, commitment, and perseverance: the ADA, minimum wage, criminal justice code overhaul, immigration, changing the voting age to eigh- teen, and every major piece of civil and voting rights legislation over the past fifty years. It’s still hard to fully comprehend how directly Teddy’s work impacted the lives of every American. I thought I would just say a few words about him as person, be- cause I think that more than almost anyone else I’ve ever met, Teddy’s humanity is what made him such a legislative giant. Teddy was known to his many nieces and nephews for his big hugs, his big heart, and his come-one-come-all sailing expeditions. When fewer and fewer people wanted to join these death defying ex- cursions, he created the Family History Trip for all generations to visit historic sites together.

  • {PDF EPUB} the Peter Lawford Story Life with the Kennedys Monroe and the Rat Pack by Patricia Lawford Stewart the Tragic History of the Rat Pack
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} The Peter Lawford Story Life with the Kennedys Monroe and the Rat Pack by Patricia Lawford Stewart The Tragic History Of The Rat Pack. The Rat Pack is the epitome of Mad Men- style old-school cool. As Colin Bertram of Biography tells us, the legendary group of entertainers were originally acquaintances who used to hang around at Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall's home in Los Angeles. Before their most famous line- up, they had a Who's Who list of satellite members that included David Niven, Spencer Tracy, and Robert Mitchum. They were by no means a "men only" club, either: Early on, legendary ladies such as Ava Gardner, Judy Garland, Elizabeth Taylor and Audrey Hepburn counted themselves in the group's ranks. In fact, the Rat Pack didn't even really want to be one. They actually liked to be called "The Summit" or "The Clan." Still, regardless of their full list of members or original naming aspirations, history has come to know the group as the Rat Pack, and Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., Dean Martin, Peter Lawford, and Joey Bishop are considered its core members. As effortlessly awesome as the group appeared to be, there was actually a lot of turmoil and sadness behind the scenes. Today, we'll take a look at the tragic history of the Rat Pack. Peter Lawford's right hand. If you're hard-pressed to name an iconic Peter Lawford movie, you probably won't be alone. Though his IMDb page shows that his acting career was lengthy and impressive, his entry on the Hollywood Walk of Fame website tells us that Lawford also had a couple of other things playing in his favor.

So in this way Rosemary was fortunate to be born into a family of wealth, a family that could seek out and pay for what was available. Rosemary attracted the attention of many young men. She could not walk or speak intelligibly and was incontinent. Namespaces Article Talk. I'll admit I have not been a big fan of most of the Kennedy family, particularly the men, and this book did nothing to alter my opinion. It had been an uneventful third pregnancy. Rosemary is not helping them live out this mutual illusion being behind in every measure of development compared to her siblings apart from looks. And I have to say that if my parents just hid my sibling and she disappeared from our lives, I'd be MAD. The poor child was bounced around so often that even a normal child without mental disabilities would have trouble coping. According to Eunice Kennedy Shriver's son Anthony, "The interest [Rosemary] sparked in my family toward people with special needs will one day go down as the greatest accomplishment that any Kennedy has made on a global basis. While by no means do I view Joe or Rose Kennedy as altruistic, I will say that after reading this book I no longer view them as complete monsters. The Independent.

  • Edward Kennedy
    AAmmeerriiccaannRRhheettoorriicc..ccoomm Edward Kennedy Chappaquiddick Address to the People of Massachusetts Broadcast 29 July 1969 AUTHENTICITY CERTIFIED: Text version below transcribed directly from audio My fellow citizens: I have requested this opportunity to talk to the people of Massachusetts about the tragedy which happened last Friday evening. This morning I entered a plea of guilty to the charge of leaving the scene of an accident. Prior to my appearance in court it would have been [im]proper for me to comment on these matters. But tonight I am free to tell you what happened and to say what it means to me. On the weekend of July 18th, I was on Martha's Vineyard Island participating with my nephew, Joe Kennedy -- as for thirty years my family has participated -- in the annual Edgartown Sailing Regatta. Only reasons of health prevented my wife from accompanying me. On Chappaquiddick Island, off Martha's Vineyard, I attended, on Friday evening, July 18th, a cook-out I had encouraged and helped sponsor for a devoted group of Kennedy campaign secretaries. When I left the party, around 11:15pm, I was accompanied by one of these girls, Miss Mary Jo Kopechne. Mary Jo was one of the most devoted members of the staff of Senator Robert Kennedy. She worked for him for four years and was broken up over his death. For this reason, and because she was such a gentle, kind, and idealistic person, all of us tried to help her feel that she still had a home with the Kennedy family.

  • The Future We Make: Ted Kennedy's Legacy in Fighting Cancer
    "We know the future will outlast all of us, but I believe that all of us will live on in the future we make," said Senator Ted Kennedy in a speech he gave last December at Harvard University. It will be a long while before we see the likes of anyone who bettered the future as much as Ted Kennedy. Throughout his 46 years in the Senate, Ted Kennedy was responsible for more than 2,500 bills, hundreds of which became laws. His body of work is simply astonishing. It advanced everything from civil rights to worker rights to women's rights to voter rights to patient rights. He raised the minimum wage and abolished the draft. Because of Senator Kennedy, we have the Americans with Disabilities Act and OSHA. And then there was his work in health care, something he described as "the cause of his life."
