I'm sure everyone knows how the Kennedy fortune was made?  Running Rum 
during prohibition - same way A Capone got his start.  But the Kennedy clan 
managed to stay low key and avoid the publicity of illegal activity.  ONce 
that dies down they
decided politics would be the next neat illegal activity to make a lot of 
money in.

Has T Kennedy *ever* held a real job?  course not.

Tell me more, as a Senator or as President? I always wondered why
Cape Canaveral got renamed Cape Kennedy.
Seems like the space race was already well underway by January 20, 1961,
and he died in 1963, long before we reached the moon.

I can remember when somebody was talking about how The Godfather was
keeping Mikey clean and wanted him to be President someday, and speculated
that someday a guy from a mob family might actually grow up to be President,
in a life imitating art sort of way.
I told him we'd been there and done that, as of 1-20-1961. Took him
a while to catch on.

BTW, can you guess who this song is about?

Eddie
written by James Young, 1979

I woke up today, the papers spoke of a man we know
He's made of the stuff they say that first made our country grow
Living in style, traveling to distant lands
Better hang tough, for now it's time to make your stand
Can we ignore the basic facts of history
Or deny what people say is destiny
I think the message is ever so loud and clear

Eddie, now don't you run
You know you're a bootlegger's son
And you saw just what it's done to the others
Eddie, now don't you run
It's the end of all your fun
And you saw just what they've done
To your brothers

Can we ignore the basic facts of history
Or deny what people say is destiny
First in the eighties but last of the sons
First in the eyes of his countrymen
I think the message is ever so loud and clear

Eddie, now don't you run
You know you're a bootlegger's son
And you saw just what it's done to the others
Eddïe, now don't you run
It's the end of all your fun
And you saw just what they've done
To your brothers
