Memo to Caroline Kennedy: Stop trying to force your son on America
New York Post, Aug 8, 2017, Maureen Callahan

On Tuesday, New York magazine published an essay by a 24-year-old law student who recently paddleboarded around Manhattan for the first time.

“I signed up for the race because I thought it sounded cool,” writes our participant. “Of course, when I asked around, everyone said it was really hard and I’d better start training.”

The smugness, the entitlement, the painfully obvious observation — one might wonder: Who cares?

Until you look at the byline and realize: Oh, of course. Another Kennedy foisted upon us.

Our diarist is none other than Jack Schlossberg, grandson of JFK, son of Caroline, accomplishment-free save for that 25-mile race around Manhattan — which he curiously notes he lives “on” rather than “in.”

This semi-self-deprecating essay is juxtaposed with 14 portraits of Jack in black-and-white on his big day, muscular and shirtless and smiling, just one of the guys. He resembles no one so much as his late Uncle John F. Kennedy Jr., who, until his untimely death in 1999, was the Kennedy family’s last last great hope.

Is anyone asking for this?

LOL.  I clicked on the link to the original essay.  Then clicked on the Slideshow and made it through those photos.  The slideshow unexpectedly continued to the next article which is entitled "Great Moments in Donald Trump Jr.'s Hair".

I think sending a "Memo" to Carolyne Kennedy would be pointless.  She hasn't got the brains to foist this shallow-end-of-the-gene-pool on us, this is the NY State Dem establishment at work.

The Kennedys are a dying dynasty.  That dynasty might even be completely dead.  JFK and RFK at least did some good in their lives.  The rest of the Kennedys are selfish idiotic boors who couldn't find their way our of a paper bag.     I wouldn't vote for any of them for the same reason I wouldn't vote for Jeb Bush or any other Bush.  This country was not set up for royal families and political dynasties.  The Kennedys and the Bushes had their turn. We need someone fresh.

There is a Getty photo in the article that we can't post but is a must-see. Caroline is wearing a get-up that looks like a multi-layered tent. It is about four feet wide. It is unbelievable! :silly:

I say a resounding NO to all political dynasties. These people think they are royalty.
