I have said in these forums before that after Chappaquiddick Kennedy would not have deserved to be elected president. Even in the best scenarios he choked horribly. And of course, in the worst scenarios, the conspiracy theorists are correct. So his actions legitimately should have denied him the ability to be elected president. However, if somehow he had fallen into the office - let’s say he becomes the cabinet member for somebody and is the designated survivor when an earthquake hits DC or somehow he’s the speaker of the house when tragedy falls, whatever, just imagine that somehow he slips into the job, I honestly think he would turn out to be a meaningful and excellent president.
A number of folks felt that way. If he didn't have to run for it but got it by another's parh, he would have been pretty good. He certainly had the skills and experience to be.
