Ted Kennedy was known as the Liberal Lion of the United States Senate, he had been fighting cancer for more than a year and had out lived the expectations of his doctors who thought the cancer would take him early into his diagnosis!!
Edward M. Kennedy, was diagnosed in May 2008 with a malignant brain tumor he soon underwent a successful brain surgery , But his health continued to deteriorate he then suffered a siezure at a campaign luncheon for soon to be president Barak Obama who Kennedy was a stounch supporter of.
Ted Kennedy was first elected to the Senate in the year 1962, he was 30 years old at the time, his tenure would span four long decades!!! He was a hard working and for the most part well liked politician who was known for his liberal causes, his career was clouded by allegations of personal immorality and accusations that his family's clout helped him avoid jail time when an accident he was involved in left a young woman dead, Kennedy was innebriated at the time of the accident.
Kennedy was best known as the rock of the Kennedy clan who have been hit with many deaths,accusations,and drama over the years. Ted Kennedy was the one mainstay who always had the answers and was always the family head spokes person when tragedy would strike. As he did during the violent deaths of both his brothers President John F. Kennedy and his brother Senator Roberty Kennedy who were both assasinated. Ted Kennedy also took the stand when his nephew and John F. Kennedy's son John F. Kennedy Jr. was suddenly killed in a small plane crash with his wife.
Senator Ted Kennedy was survived by his second wife, Victoria and his three children Kara, Edward Kennedy Junior, and Patrick, who is a member of the House of Representatives. Even if you didnt agree with Sen. Kennedy's out look on politics he was a great politician and very upstanding reputable American, may peace be with the Kennedy family who tragedy seems to have a grudge against ,I just hope they can find some peace in knowing he is no longer suffering and that America will miss THE LIBERAL LION!! Senator Ted Kennedy Dead At the age of 77!!
Peace Peoplez lets take a minute today to remember Mr. Kennedy and any loved ones that we might be taking forgranted , remember we never know how much time we have on this earth,,good or bad we all go sometime!!! ttylater ,,,,Billy F.
