I'll never understand how they could re-elect Ted.

He was pathetic, due in large part to his father's refusal to bless his son with his approval and due to the long shadows cast by his older brothers. Teddy was the runt of the litter and treated as such. The one I felt badly for was his cousin Joe Gargan who tried his best to be Ted's protector and ultimately his conscience. He was taken for granted and treated shabbily.<br /><br />The film did nothing to change my mind about what happened on that day in July 1969. I grew up n Massachusetts and folks there are still besotted with the Kennedy name. Even now. <br /><br />Years ago, I read books about the "incident" that were written after the fact, and it is as obvious now as it was then that there was a huge cover up, with many questions still unanswered. We'll probably never know the true story. Here are a couple of YT vids I watched/listened to last night ahead of seeing the movie today that I probably tell the story as well as any one. <br /><br />Documentary --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEOd7AOR6ic<br /><br />Diver John Farrar interview --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kq7NOTip31o&t=2707sRadio Patriothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08318682681279734118noreply@blogger.com
