The “old man” was their father, Joseph P. Kennedy who was a very wealthy businessman, but an unsavory figure. He had made much of his money in bootlegging and smuggling, and although married, carried on notorious affairs with movie stars. When he had the opportunity to serve the country in a critical post, he supported Hitler and the Fascists and fought to keep America from assisting England in WWII. President Roosevelt fired him, and President Harry Truman literally came to blows with Kennedy. JFK wanted his father’s money, but didn’t want him anywhere near the campaign. Most people who voted for Kennedy, had no idea that his father was on the Fascist side in WWII. Ironically, JFK was a hero who fought against the fascists and his older brother was killed in Europe on a secret mission against Germany. The elder Kennedy accused President Roosevelt of ‘murdering” his son in a useless war.


Theodore Roosevelt had pledged to serve only two terms and everyone was looking to see whom he supported to succeed him in 1908.

But he didn’t want to offend the party leaders by precluding their ability to appear to have a say in the choice of nominee. So he made no public statement. But most journalists in Washington realized what the reality was and the Kansas City Times simply published this little ditty.
