I watched Robert Kennedy Jr who is the President of an Environmental group this morning. Kennedy looks so much like his father, it is a bit jarring to witness it. i believe Kennedy had some sort of heroin arrest in the early eighties that might be what has precluded him from running for office. Or it could be that serving his passion for the environemnt and it's causes have been enough.
Kennedy suffers from spasmodic dysphonia which is a condition that causes the voice to tremor and shake. The person appears to be upset and emotional. It is believed that Maine Senator Susan Collins may suffer from the same issue.
Growing up his father, RFK, was my political hero and though the knowledge of life has taken some of the gloss off he still is one of them. I hoped in my youth that one of his sons might take up the mantle, most likely Joe Kennedy, Bobby's son. It was not to be, Joe's son himself has announced an effort to run for Barney Frank's to be vacated seat in the Massachusset's legislature.
Still a man of RFK Jr's passion could be used in elective office.
