The Kennedys
Just finished watching. Never looked into their family history much except of assassination, looks like it was built by their father, the main man behind it all, it's even mentioned in a final scene... in short, Greg Kinnear did it very well playing Jack and Barry Pepper playing Bobby... GREAT series, I recommend.

Old Rotten Joe BOUGHT every election which his son John won and was proud of it! Old Joe was also a rabid Anti-Semite: "Joseph Kennedy and the Jews By Edward Renehan, Jr. Mr. Renehan's most recent book is The Kennedys at War, 1937-1945, published in April 2002 by Doubleday. Arriving at London in early 1938, newly-appointed U.S. Ambassador Joseph P. Kennedy took up quickly with another transplanted American. Viscountess Nancy Witcher Langhorne Astor assured Kennedy early in their friendship that he should not be put off by her pronounced and proud anti-Catholicism. "I'm glad you are smart enough not to take my [views] personally," she wrote. Astor pointed out that she had a number of Roman Catholic friends - G.K. Chesterton among them - with whom she shared, if nothing else, a profound hatred for the Jewish race. Joe Kennedy, in turn, had always detested Jews generally, although he claimed several as friends individually. Indeed, Kennedy seems to have tolerated the occasional Jew in the same way Astor tolerated the occasional Catholic....." http://hnn.us/articles/697.html "Kennedy was appointed ambassador to England by President Franklin Roosevelt in 1938. He, his wife and nine handsome children were in all the papers as they boarded a ship in New York harbor for the cruise to England. Joseph Kennedy loved it. He was granted the respect and status he felt he deserved in England, unlike what he had experienced in Boston as a Catholic and Irishman. kennedychamberlainAs ambassador, he supported the appeasement policies of Neville Chamberlain (shown on left in photo here with Kennedy) with Hitler and rejected the warnings of Winston Churchill that compromise with Germany was impossible. As Roosevelt shifted from neutrality to a more anti-German position, Kennedy pulled away from him and in 1940 resigned as ambassador. The tenseness between the two increased as Joseph Kennedy Jr. vocally opposed the re-nomination of Roosevelt in 1940. After he left the ambassadorship, Kennedy assumed a somewhat lower profile, promoting the career of his sons, and grieving for two of his children who were lost in the war. In a sense, he was unfulfilled after the ambassadorship. " http://www.capecodtoday.com/blogs/in...edy_sr?blog=62 ![]() |

Most of the world was anti-Semitic back in the 30's and 40's...much like today.
