…ent for public relations that the myth hath endured so long, and she never had to respond in regards to “How long did you and John-John practice that salute?” or “Why do you think your son has grown into the spitting image of Peter Lawford?” However, the myth of the Kennedy clan as earnest public servants is now taking a pummeling reminiscent of when Frazier met Foreman, this because Joseph P.
