Fortunate Son

Ted Kennedy has passed away. Kennedy's passing comes on the one-year anniversary of this speech on the floor of the Democratic National Convention.



"For me, this is a season of hope - new hope for a just and fair prosperity for the many and not just for the few. New hope - and this is the cause of my life - new hope that we will break the old gridlock and guarantee that every American, North, South, East, West, young and old, will have decent quality health care as a fundamental right and not as a privilege."
