A video celebrating Ted Kennedy’s career in politics played Tuesday evening during the Democratic National Convention. Although it has been three years since the “Lion of the Senate” lost his battle with brain cancer, the man behind the booming voice that enthusiastically endorsed Barack Obama in 2008 is still a force in the 2012 campaign. …
“It was just so classic Teddy that he was somehow able to appear and be relevant again and again,” Caroline Kennedy, the daughter of President John F. Kennedy, told ABC News anchor David Muir. “We saw that with health care, it was such a tremendous achievement of the president to get that done, and then last night when he popped up debating Mitt Romney, it really made me smile.”…
“I think he’d be tremendously proud of all of that President Obama has accomplished,” Kennedy said. “I think he really saw someone who would carry the work forward on the issues he cared about, and I think that he would be thrilled to be here if he could.”
