I don't know; things have changed. Uncle Teddy couldn't win, except in Massachusetts. Murderers don't tend to get elected. I don't know much about the younger Kennedys but they may have to pay the price of their fathers and uncles indiscretions.

Teddy Kennedy is too scared of following his brothers as a target for some nut, and having the truth about Chappaquiddick coming out. The younger ones are either addicted or nut jobs!

The Kennedy heyday seems to have passed with John and Bobby.
After their tragic assasinations passed, there seems to be what too many might call baggage attached to the family's history. So, doubt that a Kennedy could win. The strengths have been diffused.

WOW ... what a quesion! I think that situation would have to come into play before we could even imagine what the results would be! I definitely think that the impact that the original Kennedy's had on our mothers and fathers/grandparents will play a very large part in that decision.

never say never.
But Senator Edward from mass has what many Americans would consider at least a suspicious death on his record, which prevented him from ever running.
Many of the rest of the clan that are still alive -have a lot of baggage in their backgrounds- drugs, mob connections, or worse. A lot of skeletons in the Kennedy family closet.

God, I hope NOT. Since I live in Massachusetts, if you put all the brains of the Kennedy's together, you would not have enough powder to knock a tree down!

I don't believe so, besides the other Kennedy's are not made of the same sh!** that John was made of (especially Ted) Their family has suffered enough and will probably let the legacy of Camelot be remembered as it was at that time period.

No, but I'll sure be glad when Teddy is lying next to his brothers. I'd go hunting with VP Dick Cheney anytime, but I sure-as-hell wouldn't ride in a car over a bridge with Ted K!!!!!!!!

He believe in Social programs for Americans. He is for the working class. This against everything Republicans believe in.
He would be target, just like his brothers JFK & Robert

Unlikely.
