9. I'm sorry, but this is dissapointing to me...
I love Ted Kennedy, but I think he has made a mistake for a few reasons. Why did he wait so long? It now makes it look like he is jumping on the bandwagon, he could have been a leader and made an endorsement earlier, he could have taken up the mantel that his brothers so bravely fought for. There is only one candidate in this race who comes close to what JFK and RFK stood for.

"I believe that, as long as there is plenty, poverty is evil." - Robert Kennedy

"Restoring our moral authority means leading by example and making clear that the hard challenges don't frighten us. There is no better opportunity than the challenge of poverty – the great moral issue of our time." -- John Edwards
