I am a great admirer of JFK and RFK. I was raised by a family in a town that revered them. I can't think of anyone who would have laughed harder at this circus that JFK.<BR/><BR/>Remember, Teddy is not Jack and he is certainly not Bobby.<BR/><BR/>To watch Caroline in this whole mess has been the saddest part for me.
