The partial Kennedy Clan endorsement of Obama shouldn't have surprised anyone- the Kennedy's have always been about show rather than substance. Obama fits their bill exactly.

Americans should all question why so many people talk about supporting Obama because he gives them "hope" when they seem completely unable to explain WHY he gives them hope. In Caroline Kennedy's endorsement of Obama she referred to him as the most inspirational leader since her father. Why does he inspire her? What has he done to earn such accolades? She didn't offer any specifics- but she is not alone in her inability to pronounce reasons behind her emotional connection to Obama.

Caroline did explain that it was her children who showed her the path to the Obamarama. Her kids are 19, 17 and 15 years old. If she needs to get her political advice from them, is her endorsement credible or merely incredible?

No question about it- Obama can deliver a speech some speechwriter puts in front of him. He has the ministerial intonation down better than just about everyone else in politics. But what has he achieved? What legislation has he authored and successfully pushed through Congress or even through the Illinois Senate? What is his greatest accomplishment in the private sector?

Ted Kennedy chimed in with his position that the JFK torch has been passed to Obama. Do we really remember what the JFK torch is or was? Has the Democratic party moved Kennedy to the left to fit their own agenda? Does the average person in America- Democrat or Republican- ask themselves what can they do for their country? Or is the average person trying to figure out what someone else should do for their country?

We are headed for tougher times and we need to start holding our elected officials accountable. We need to demand they provide us with clear positions so we can make an educated decision about which of them we can support. I am hoping to learn what Obama's positions are today. I am listening but I am not hearing anything...

Wait- he is for change...
