	Kennedy curse
		The so-called Kennedy curse is a media creation.
		In their attempt to bolster the myth of the Kennedy curse, the media have included self-caused harms as "tragedies." Getting drunk and leaving a girl to drown is a tragedy for the girl's family, not the FK clan.
		Dying in a plane crash when you shouldn't be flying a plane, date rape, reckless behavior on a ski slope, having an affair with your babysitter, being arrested for possession of heroin, and dying of a drug overdose are not tragedies.

		The Kennedy Curse refers to a series of unfortunate events that have happened to the Kennedy family.
		Believers in the "curse" generally cite the following events as evidence of the family's misfortunes, while others claim that it has something to do with a scorned woman placing an actual curse on family patriarch Joseph P. Kennedy.

	Robert F. Kennedy assassination - The Black Vault Encyclopedia Project (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Various critics have claimed the official account of Robert Kennedy's death is inconsistent and incomplete, and/or that the killing was the result of a conspiracy.
		The evening he was shot, Kennedy had won the June 4 Democratic Presidential primaries in South Dakota and California, boosting his chances for the Democratic nomination for President during the 1968 presidential election.
		Apparently, Kennedy suddenly grabbed Cesar's clip-on necktie with his right hand when hit as that tie was less than a foot away from the Senator's right hand while he was lying fatally wounded on the hotel's kitchen floor.

	Kennedy Curse - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		According to Kennedy detractor Edward Klein, there is a story that Joseph Kennedy made his way to the Court of St. James's as ambassador in 1937.
		Critics of the Curse theory argue that, given the sheer size of the family, the number of unfortunate events is not unusual.
		It could also be argued that the Kennedy family due to their relative wealth have a lifestyle that is quite different from how most people live (for example, piloting a plane) and consequently they are more often in greater physical danger.

	The Kennedy Bunch Curse (Site not responding. Last check: )
		It has been alleged that throughout his life, John F. Kennedy had an impeccable tailor and that it was next to impossible for the top rear of his jacket and shirt to bunch up.
		Kennedy family patriarch Joseph P. Kennedy had amassed a fortune by the mid-30s and was grooming his eldest son, Joe, Jr., to be President.
		One may attribute the cause to casual wear and relaxed posture, but it is further alleged that Kennedy's tailor-fitted jackets were designed to never exhibit such unfashionable juts and unnatural displacements.

		You conveniently overlook that the Kennedy incident took place on a public street with a Capitol City Police officer in pursuit, while the Cheney incident took place on isolated private property and was evaluated as an accident.
		It is up to them to determine his capacity to continue to serve in the H of R. However, with the Bush family and the enabling parents using the White House as a military school for THEIR family wastrel (well, one of the family neer-do-wells), it is the business of all good Americans.

	Workers World July 29, 1999: Behind the myth of the 'Kennedy curse'
		Although Kennedy is survived by his sister, Caroline, who has three children, one of the main issues raised by the media is that there will no male heirs to bear the JFK name.
		The death of Kennedy along with his wife, Carolyn Kennedy, and her sister, Lauren Bessette, played out like a real-life soap opera as the major networks traced every move of first the search-and-rescue efforts and then the search-and-recovery efforts in the Atlantic Ocean off Martha's Vineyard.
		Kennedy was characterized as a liberal sympathetic to the civil-rights struggle, which was rapidly growing and becoming more militant.

	Prophetic word for today - The Kennedy curse
		The fact that his job position in the Kennedy administration was as "Attorney General" reveals that he had a calling towards the execution of judgments and justice, which is by nature an apostolic endeavor.
		Besides this tragedy, the Kennedy family has been haunted by multiple scandals, which has added to the generalized belief that there is some sort of "curse" on the Kennedy family.
		Therefore, Joan Kennedy's fractured right shoulder speaks of how Ted Kennedy had a strong calling from God to be a priestly intercessor who covers the weaknesses of others, and it speaks of how he perverted that calling into an active Canaanite defense of values without any regard to God's judgments, righteousness, and truth.

		The Kennedy dynasty was established in America's imagination as Camelot with the presidential election of JFK and his wife, Jacqueline, although what went on behind closed doors at the White House would have shocked today's voters.
		Whatever impetus there was in the family political dynamic, the next generation of Kennedys was responsible for the same stupidity and overindulgence as their uncles, a lot of which was driven by the alcoholism so prevalent in their ranks.
		Carolyn Kennedy, JFK Jr.'s sister, has never been the object of gossip and continues to work for the betterment of society, although she gets little press coverage.

		Klein, a confidant of Jackie Kennedy and others in the family for some 15 years, brings to bear both family tradition, an oral tradition, and epic events in the lives of the family to attempt to prove that indeed this family is cursed in the tradition of Irish curses.
		And, indeed, Patrick Kennedy is the first of several family members Klein zeros in on to try to show a pattern of risky behavior that proves fateful.
		I also found it interesting that Carolyn Kennedy, John’s wife, was, according to Klein, a drug-head who was separated from John at the time of their deaths.

	William F. Buckley Jr. on The Kennedy Curse on National Review Online
		One's patience wears thin when, included in the chronicle of the curse, we see listed, "In1955 Ethel Kennedy's parents are killed in a small plane crash in Oklahoma while on vacation." That would be some curse.
		He is convincing in relating a daredevil streak in the Kennedys, and perhaps it was an outgrowth of ethnic resentment over discouragements visited on the Irish community when first they arrived in large numbers in the 19th century and were treated as a servile class by the dominant Protestants.
		The curse was very attentive to these proceedings and killed off the heir in battle a short time later, and soon Kick too would die in an airplane crash.

		Ted Kennedy once wondered "whether some awful curse did actually hang over all the Kennedys." Of course, the distinguished Democrat from Massachusetts has been the author of many of his own problems.
