WASHINGTON — The Kennedys have held congressional seats, the presidency and
the public's imagination for more than 60 years.
That era ends when Patrick Kennedy of Rhode Island vacates his U.S. House
seat
next month, leaving a City Council post in California as Camelot's sole
remaining political holding.
The son of the late Massachusetts Sen. Edward Kennedy says he has no qualms
about walking away from politics. His departure marks the first time in 63
years that a Kennedy won't be serving in elected office in Washington.
The 43-year-old Kennedy says in his family, "the legacy was always public
service, and that didn't necessarily mean public office."
Kennedy plans to continue the tradition by championing a national effort to
boost brain research. | w*****2

一个权贵家族倒下去，千千万万个权贵家族站起来
杜邦啊，洛克菲勒啊，摩根啊，新生代布什啊，克林顿啊，
光拿肯尼迪说事有个毛线用
而且肯尼迪家族也不是自愿离开的，要不是像范德比尔特家
一样出现了继承危机，还真就江山万万年了，呵呵。

qualms
