The Kennedys

Bob Herbert had a great observation in his column in this morning’s New York Times:

The most significant aspect of the Kennedys, more important than their reliably liberal politics or Ted’s long list of legislative accomplishments, was their ability to inspire. They offered the blessed gift of hope to millions, year after year and decade after decade.

Indeed. The dream endures. (1980 Convention Speech, 2008 Convention Speech)
