Caroline Kennedy Endorses Obama

NEW YORK (Jan. 26) - The daughter of President John F. Kennedy endorsed
Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama, saying he could inspire Americans
in the same way her father once did.
"I have never had a president who inspired me the way people tell me that my
father inspired them," Caroline Kennedy wrote in an op-ed posted Saturday on
the Web site of The New York Times. "But for the first time, I believe I
have found the man who could be that president - not just for me, but for a new
generation of Americans."
Kennedy, who was four days shy of her 6th birthday when her father was
assassinated, wrote that Obama "has a special ability to get us to believe in
ourselves, to tie that belief to our highest ideals and imagine that together we
can do great things."
And she appealed to other parents to pick a candidate who she said could
invigorate a younger generation that is too often "hopeless, defeated and
disengaged."
Kennedy wrote that she wants a president "who appeals to the hopes of those
who still believe in the American Dream, and those around the world who still
believe in the American ideal; and who can lift our spirits, and make us
believe again that our country needs every one of us to get involved."
