Kennedys Speech At The Convention, Can You See It?
There is no one more fitting to give the keynote address at the convention this year than Senator Ted Kennedy. It will be profoundly moving and symbolic as the party transitions from one generation to the next for him to reflect on the past and on the future and pass the torch on to Barack Obama. I think we are in for something really special, historic and monumental. Something that will be remembered in the history books.

Look at this quote from Kennedy after brain surgery today.

"After completing treatment, I look forward to returning to the United States Senate and to doing everything I can to help elect Barack Obama president."

Its going to be amazing!
