Ted Kennedy on Health Centers and the “Cause of My Life”
In a lengthy, personal essay in this week’s Newsweek magazine, Senator Edward Kennedy (D-MA) discusses his own personal fight with cancer, his history of fighting for affordable health care for all, and the importance of the health reform debate now underway in Congress. Ted Kennedy has died at age 77, over a year after being diagnosed with malignant cancer of the brain. Kennedy was first elected to the Senate in 1962 at the age of 30–a year before the assassination of his brother. During a Senate career of that length Kennedy has played a part in many issues of the past few decades but he is probably most associated with health care reform.
Before Bill Clinton, the US President, who was instrumental in the Irish peace process, there was Senator Ted Kennedy.
