I'm not fond of "political dynasties" whether I agree with their aims or not. It smacks too much of royalty. Sometimes I get the feeling too many Americans *want* a return of the aristocracy (especially the way they coo and get starry-eyed over the British crown or even idiot tabloid celebrities).
edit: I also admired Ted Kennedy for his life long work towards bettering the country and the lives of its citizens. Whatever his motivations - his intent was to improve the infrastructure so that life for the middle and working classes had a better chance to go well.
