Time (and many Liberals) seem all a gush over the prospects:
Is Caroline Kennedy Ready for the Senate?
Caroline Kennedy once seemed to be just about the only member of the Kennedy clan who was immune to the lure of politics, choosing to make her mark instead by writing and through a number of charitable endeavors. But when I asked Kennedy last January about her surprising decision to publicly endorse Barack Obama after decades of guarding her private life, her answer hinted that President John F. Kennedy’s daughter might be open to even bigger things ahead. "I really felt like it was a crucial moment, and if I had something that I believed in, then I really owed it to myself to express that," she told me. "I recently turned 50, so I figured, I’d better get going — what am I waiting for?"
Well, if being a mayor and a governor of a state means that one is not ready to be VP, then "No". No previous office, no previous campaigning, no think tank, no scholarly works…somebody, other than she is part of a dynastic political family, please tell me why her?
Yet, we took a little known state senator from a corrupt Chicago political machine whose main result has been two memoirs by age 47, a bunch of "present" votes, and a rather record breaking campaign coffer, and made him the President-Elect.
Sigh….I’m afraid that America will never get over its worship of celebrityhood…
