President Obama will be speaking at Ted Kennedy's Funeral today. Since dying from brain cancer on Tuesday, Ted Kennedy's death has been treated as the death of Royalty. When one looks at the political legacy within the Kennedy family it is hard not to understand why there is so much attention over Ted Kennedy's Funeral.Ted Kennedy's Funeral will be held at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Roman Catholic Basilica basilica in a working class section of Boston. After the Ted Kennedy Funeral, Ted Kennedy's Body will be flown to Washington and taken to Arlington National Cemetery, where Ted Kennedy will be buried close to his brothers, former President John F. Kennedy and Senator Robert Kennedy.
Although many members of Congress and other leading U.S. political figures, including former presidents Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush, are expected to attend the service, all eyes are on President Obama and his Eulogy Speech for Ted Kennedy's. Presidential aids are all hushed about the contents of Obama's Ted Kennedy Eulogy.
It is expected Obama's Ted Kennedy Eulogy will focus on Obama the impact Kennedy had on American life and politics since Ted Kennedy was first elected in 1962. Obama's Ted Kennedy Eulogy speech will go through some details of Ted Kennedy's 47-year political career which spanned the assassinations of his brothers, President John and Robert Kennedy; the civil rights era; and Apollo moon landings.
Obama and his speech writers definitely had their work cut out in writing the Obama Ted Kennedy Eulogy speech as Obama was only 18 months old when Ted Kennedy first took office.
