Tribute to Kennedys? An era of politics that was over in 1964; Teddy, now a member of AA, was not particularly a great politician or an upstanding citizen. His actions with Mary Jo Kopechne are hardly heroic nor qualify him for such glorious honors.
As for green convention, stupid! It cost three times as much and does nothing but add to the PR Spin.... The "green" of the convention will, of course, be the Empty Suit Obama, with his total lack of experience, hands on management, humility or character. Nothing like "on the job training"....and thus his mere presence in the White House would be way above his pay grade. His nomination will mark a sad day for the DNC.
