Fourth-generation Kennedy considers political life

Another Kennedy may be entering US national politics, following the retirement of long-serving Representative Barney Frank.

Joseph P Kennedy III, the grandson of Robert F Kennedy, is considering a run for Mr Frank's Massachusetts seat.

Mr Kennedy, 31, has resigned from his position as a prosecutor to mull a bid.
