My reasons are patriotic, political and personal, and the three are intertwined. All my life, people have told me that my father changed their lives, that they got involved in public service or politics because he asked them to. And the generation he inspired has passed that spirit on to its children. I meet young people who were born long after John F. Kennedy was president, yet who ask me how to live out his ideals.

I have never had a president who inspired me the way people tell me that my father inspired them. But for the first time, I believe I have found the man who could be that president — not just for me, but for a new generation of Americans.

Pundits discuss whether endorsements really matter. They do to me.

9. Caroline needs to put down the bon bons

and romance novel, get up from the fainting sofa, and go out and work like the rest of us.
It will clear up her mind.

10. Robert Kennedy Jr. supports Hillary Clinton

He has done something with his life, and has a little more credibility with me.

4. Well, my point was Caroline Kennedy's opinion is important to me.

I really wasn't looking for an insult.

6. What do you mean by "insult"

I'm with you; i'm on your side; I don't understand how you could be insulted by my comment; please explain.

8. Sorry. I didn't have my glasses on.

Without them I read, "deep, deep. Is there something to this." I read sarcasm. I apologize, and will read WITH my glasses in the future.

5. He moves people. There is no mistaking that.

He has an aura about him.

Sorry but Hillary doesn't bring people to their feet when she speaks.

She seems lucky to keep them awake.

7. The "aura" may not be seen by everyone....

...no charisma registers for me, but then maybe he has to be seen in person with a large crowd.
