[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The “Kennedy curse” is ridiculous. Other than the two brothers being assassinated for political reasons, the other tragedies could have happened in any large family of means. You rarely hear about all the successes. [/quote] What successes do they have ?[/quote] Special Olympics ADA [/quote] This is exactly the kind of Kennedy worship thats truly embarrassing . The national council on disability which at the time was the preeminent lobbying organization for the disabled is largely responsible for the ground work that led to the ADA ( Im assuming you meant the American with disabilities act ) . Patrisha wright a legally blind activist was the face of the movement to get CONGRESS and not the Kennedys to pass ADA.I'm start to feel bad for you As for the special Olympics , it's inconsequential ,heavily subsidized me-too event with little to no value at all. It's not like you actively keep up with them anyway [/quote] You really need to educate yourself more on Eunice Kennedy Shriver. You sound bitter. Patrisha Wright's work could not have happened without a ton of other stuff happening before that. Eunice paved the way. It took an army, not an army of 1 ... but Eunice was a huge reason for all the laws being passed. [/quote] You come across as intellectually challenged by or maybe you are. You're the one who tried to make the ADA a Kennedy achievement and now you're backtracking and saying it took an army ,which is which Karen ?[/quote]
