Pray tell = where does this "AMERICAN ROYALTY" come from when speaking of the Kennedy family ? America is never to have "royalty". Besides, remember: MARY JO K. ??? Remember who was a RUM RUNNER ? Is there something wrong with having politicians who are honest, full of integrity, and good examples of righteousness? This is OUR country and we do not need poor examples for our citizens = young and old.

The term "American Royalty" comes from the expectations of the Kennedy family, their treatment by the press and local law enforcement and prosecutors, and is reinforced by the good people of New England who keep electing the Kennedys.

American Royalty? Only in the mind of the privilege expecting Kennedys and those that need something that they can bow and scrape to---
