When did Edward display his talent as a speaker?
Senator Kennedy—often known as Ted or Teddy—was the youngest of four sons born to Rose and Joseph Kennedy. Edward first won his Senate seat from Massachusetts in nineteen sixty-two. Six years later, he showed his gifts as a speaker after a gunman shot Robert, his brother.
He was the third longest serving senator ever. Edward Kennedy was known as "the liberal lion of the Senate. " He said his "best vote" was his vote against the Iraq war. But he was also willing to compromise with Republicans. He fought for civil rights for the disabled and for workers’ rights. He helped negotiate the Northern Ireland peace agreement in nineteen ninety-eight. And ten years later, in two thousand eight, he was one of the first top Democrats to support a young senator seeking the party’s nomination for president. Social issues were at the heart of Edward Kennedy’s work. But he never got to reach one of his goals: health coverage for all Americans. His weakening health kept him away from the Senate in his final months. But he continued to work from home to help support President Obama’s top legislative aim. a health reform plan.
