	Kennedy Compound - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It contains the homes of Joseph P. Kennedy and two of his sons, Robert F. and John F. During the late 1950s and early 1960s, the latter utilised the compound as a base for his Presidential campaign and as a summer White House and Presidential retreat until his assassination in 1963.
		The Joseph P. Kennedy home, the largest and most impressive of the three, is surrounded by well-tended lawns and gardens and commands sweeping views of the ocean from its long porches.
		On the main floor are a living room, dining room, sun room, television room, the bedroom that President Kennedy used before he purchased his own house in the compound, the kitchen, and various pantries and utility rooms.

	Kennedy family - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Kennedy family is a prominent Irish-American family in American politics and government descending from the marriage of Joseph P. and Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy.
		But these predictions were not borne out, and the idea largely dropped off the public's radar after Senator Robert F. Kennedy was assassinated in 1968 and Senator Edward Kennedy was involved in a possible drunk-driving incident (in which a passenger in his car was killed) in 1969.
		Likely dyslexic and considered to be slightly brain-damaged from birth, Rose Marie Kennedy (her christening name) was rendered incapable of intelligible speech or caring for herself by a lobotomy requested by her father, Joe Sr., that was intended to cure her increasing mood swings and make her more manageable.

	Language Log: Why is "compound" code for "cult"?
		It seems to me that all the common uses of compound for "residential complex" -- oriental trading post, military compound, diplomatic compound, rich folk's compound, family compound in Africa, and so on -- have in common the idea of a protected area in the middle of an excluded and generally hostile world.
		In the case of the Kennedys and the cults, the motives for exclusion are less conventional and more a matter of a choice that the compound owners have made.
		So the use of the world "compound" in those cases evokes an "us" vs. "them" divison, set up by the compound owners as "them" on the inside, with the writer and the reader as "us" on the outside.

	Amazon.com: The Last Patrician: Bobby Kennedy and the End of American Aristocracy: Books: Michael Knox Beran (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Kennedy seemed to understand that success in the modern political arena meant blending liberal policies with a conservative support system, a vision of politics that can be seen in modern-day politicians such as Bill Clinton.
		At a time when other books are revising public opinion of the Kennedy compound, focusing on the darker side of their affairs, this is a respectful and thoughtful work that subtly reminds us just how much was lost the day Robert Kennedy was shot down in his prime.
		Beran has written what she calls an evolutionary biography of Robert Kennedy that is almost metaphysical in its portrayal of the man. He goes into the well-known family history of Joe Kennedy fighting the establishment for respect and how he projected onto his sons his insatiable desire to succeed and be accepted.

		Kennedy, an outspoken environmentalist on most earthy issues, wrote in an op-ed piece in the New York Times that the proposal by Cape Wind Associates to build 130 offshore wind turbines was nothing more than a government-subsidized industrial boondoggle.
		Kennedy, who was confronted by Greenpeace last summer when he toured the Sound in a boat with a group opposing the project, said the windmills will cause too much noise, harm marine life and threaten fishermen’s livelihoods.
		Perhaps Kennedy should stick to writing Air America fundraising letters and stay out of debates where he can so clearly be exposed as a phony.
