The idea of him running for anything scares the livin' bejeezus out of me! Not because I don't like him - I do, in fact, have a huge amount of respect and admiration for him and what he's done with his life. His speech at the Democratic Convention was one of the highlights, for me.
It just brings back the memories of what happened to his father and his uncle. It just scares me to pieces, him putting himself up for electoral politics.
I know... I know... it's a NY state position, not a national position. And his Uncle Ted has not had any attempts made on his life (that I know of), and it's a different era with different politics.... and there's probably nothing to worry about...
But it scares me for him and his family. I lived through the assassinations. I don't want another Kennedy tragedy!
