"The fault lies not within our stars, but within ourselves." William Shakespeare.

Sad, yes, but what is truly even sadder is Rosemary, Mary Jo and Marilyn.

Franklin Roosevelt appointed JPK Sr. As the Ambassador to The Court of St. James, not Theodore Roosevelt.

A curse? Maybe. Some of it was reckless uncaring behavior like Teddy at Chappaqidick. Also if Jackie had not been a heavy smoker perhaps her pregnancy losses might not have happened. Joe and Jack were super competitive so Joe acted a bit recklessly to catch up to Jack in military honors and it killed him. Jack and Bobby both messed with the Mob and it probably killed them. Rosemary should have been married off and had a sheltered life but Joe Sr. was ashamed of her. Bad and reckless choices there. Also keeping theirselves in their pants would have helped!

They were ALL CHOICES….. not curses!!

Poor family especially Rosemary

dancing with demons has a way of ruining your life!!! he promises you the world and always blows it up in your face! live and learn!

I read a book as a young girl that gave me insight into the world of politics/monetary manipulation/powerful families. Taylor Caldwell's "The Captains and The Kings"...a novel, but based on reality.

Take a stand against injustice and suffer the consequences. Power plus decency = threat.

“Theodore Roosevelt appointed Joe Kennedy to the Court of St James in London”? That would be a miracle as that president died in 1919. Difficult to take any of this seriously after that.

Is it a curse or are the people in the family reckless and make bad decisions?

June 1934, FDR appointed Joseph Kennedy as the first SEC chairman. Asked why he appointed Kennedy to run the SEC, an agency set up to stop crooks on wall street, and it was well known that Kennedy was a crook, FDR replied, "It takes one to known one."

Absolutely brilliant, they really were cursed, how terribly Sad. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

Probably would have made more sense to list these Chronologically

The odds of these things happening is less considering how many people in this family.

It's not a curse It's life

Much less a curse , more like a blatant disregard to the law and other people

When I was a kid Bobby came to my city. I got to touch his hand. I cried so hard when he was killed.

There was no curse on anyone. When you conduct your life with such illegal activities rape,murder,stealing,lies, greed,drugs,alcohol, cheating there will be consequences. You get what you put into it.

They did piss off some powerful people back in the day.

As a proud Englishman I have never had any time for the Kennedys and Joe Kennedy in particular and all his Machiavellian actions led to sorrow as he buried his sons. However, I am sorry for the grief inflicted on this family particularly Bobby who I thought was a decent man.

There are two familes that are cursed and both of their last names starts with the letter K. Kennedys and Kardashians. Ain't that a coincidence 😮

What a great video. Happy to subscribe.

25:05 Get the years correct for birth and death of Lee Harvey Oswald. He wax born 1939, died 1963.

I’ve always read they never visited Rosemary after her lobotomy because they were ashamed of her.

R I P...all of you, and God bless the rest of your family.💕🇨🇦☘️☘️🇨🇮

About 38:09 Yes, RFK left behind 10 children and #11 on the way. It was said that #11 would never know his father; why didn't this remark allow for the possibility of a girl? Child #11 was indeed a girl.

I was only 9 years old when JFK was assassinated, by there was no partisan divide like there is today. Most of my family voted for Nixon, but they took Kennedy's death as a tragedy and mourned the loss of our President.

Nice, but sure wish the piano overlay could have been nixed.

Joseph P Kennedy was a bootlegger as well.

Failed lobotomy ? No. That was deliberate.

Made an error in Oswald's dates.

It’s actual a human curse most families have similar happenings if you group them together no one is free from tragedies

I don’t think it was a curse but their risky behavior and life style.

Beautiful souls never die!

They missed Michael Kennedy's fatal skiing accident in 1997. He was a son of Bobby's, and only 39.

Very comprehensive Documentary 🍀☘️🍀

"Oswald.did.it!" What a.JOKE!

Very painful.

JFK was such a beautiful looking man. This family has done so many good things for other people, it doesn’t matter what your politics are, it cannot be denied that this family has stepped up, time and time again to create a better life for the people of America.

So sad 😢

This "Documentary" brought to you by the Kennedy Foundation!

They didn’t mention how long it took for Teddy to get help.

All their bad luck was self inflicted, a truly awful family

JFKs father Joe was also a bootlegger and were he made a lot of his money

I'm a fourth of the way in, but it seems more just like a lineage video than a documentary about the supposed curse.

I pray God deliver the family from every curse and many others in Jesus mighty name let psalm 25 bless them , amen

Interesting documentary.

Check out Nixon walking into the funeral proceeding of Bobby with that smirk on his face at 37:02. He’s like” cool, now there’s nobody standing in my way to finally become President”. 😅

Rosemary was the most beautiful ❤

i hate when people say the Kennedy curse !! it's actually evil hateful jealous little men that wanted there position in life so bad they were willing to murder for it !! so what's done in the dark 🌚 shall 🐝 revealed in "JESUS CHRIST" MARVELOUS LIGHT 🌟 rest to all Kennedy family members "GOD" will avenge innocent Blood 🩸⚰️ Blessed in this life & and a double blessing in the next🤗🕊️

About 15:25 Joe Sr. , lost speaking ability except that I read he could say "NO----! ".

It all began with Patrick Kennedy in Boston area. He owned a Bar and his son Joseph P Kennedy who made a lot of money during the prohibition era dealing in boot legging.with the mafia connections at that time. After JP Kennedy married Rose Fitzgerald , daughter of Honey Fitz mayor of Boston. They had ten kids and their Father went into Banking and investments. He became very wealthy and the Kennedy name was huge in Massachusetts. But tragic events began to happen during WW2. So this began the period as the known Kennedy Curse. It appeared tragically things began to happen in this family. Mostly their reckless behavior and bad choices. But it seem to include tragic things to also people around them.. Sad era for Mr and Mrs Joseph Kennedy.

It all goes back to Joe the dad. A liile bit evil.

With the exception of those two scoundrels (Daddy and Teddy), they were a great American family RIP

The doctor that massaged RFKs heart to bring the heartbeat back shouldve have never left Bobby. The part about handing his wife the telescope to hear her husbands beating heart is so emotional. That Dr. Gave everything he had to give her hope. So 😥 tragic

I see why Jackie didn't want her son learning how to fly planes.

Oh our Sympathy for the Kennedys for tragic deaths in the family. Everybody Sympathize with this family.

Johnson sounds sooooo heartbroken in his speech......not.

1936, theordoe Roosevelt? had to be FDR!

It was a terrible loss for the USA when we lost Jack and Bobby .

Very nice voice...tks for sharing it...Info is nothing new...

44:56 JFK not elected to US House in 1947; he assumed that office that year, but was elected in 1946.

I’m glad that Teds murder of his mistress was at least mentioned in this documentary. You forgot the fact that she was pregnant at the time.

David and Michael?

That poor family are cursed.

At about 2;27 should be FDR, not TR (Theodore Roosevelt).

The Kennedys took risk no one with the appropriate sense would take, there is no curse

They're called dead for a reason. Once person dies they take all their secrets them. To their grave

Jean passed away in 2020.

I firmly believe Bobby knew just about all there was to know about his brother’s murder. But who would believe him? I mean, think about it. Working in a world where nearly everyone knew at least bits and pieces, there is no way he couldn’t have known. And you know there were some who were just itching to tell him, heck, brag about it! It would have been like the quarterbacks gf cheating on him that weekend at a party and everyone saw. No one may want to walk up to him right away, but by lunch he’s heard enough. The perpetrators in arms (should I say power?) would have just said he’d lost it and Rosemary wouldn’t have been the only Kennedy with a lobotomy - no pun intended! and if he had revealed, what would that have done to the country and he knew that too. What an ungodly burden to carry. Which is why I think he secretly had JFK’s brain pail buried with him (JFK - not Bobby.). Oh jeez, I just pictured LBJ doing his 3 inches from your nose thing to Bobby saying, “Yeah, I killed the SOB and there ain’t a gd thing you or anybody else can do about it!” Or words to that effect. It makes me believe that Bobby would have been the man for change, for doing what’s right for right’s sake not might’s. Thanks to that bi-polar sob though, we’ll never know. Sorry, just such a waste and still, so heartbreaking.

What about PT 109?

THEODORE Roosevelt????

Murdered by Alan Dulles is not a curse

Theodore Roosevelt did not appoint Joseph Kennedy as ambassador to the UK. Franklin Roosevelt did.

There is no such curse up on this family. Aristotle Onasis was behind all these unfortunate events

Young president our hope destroyed in a flash

Yes, he looks like Beaver Cleaver.

I think that this has hung over Bobby Jr's head, and caused him to go a little mad.

Often thought if joining country's in building trust would have been for better.❤🎉😢

It ain't no curse. People kill them......

2:20 “In 1938 Theodore Roosevelt appointed Kennedy as the Ambassador to London.” Uh. Teddy died in 1919…

The dad’s brain 🧠 fate was karma for what he did to Rosemary. 🤭

Next time try to use a family tree.....some of us are more interested in the lineage of it all😢

Eden najbolj priljubljenih predsednikov

And here I was expectin some information on the cause of the supposed curse tell me what stuff I already knew how boring.

I remember all of this from the time of 1960. 1963 I remember distinctly as well as 1968. 1968 was the WORST. Martin Luther King Jr. was gunned down on April 4, 1963... exactly TWO MONTHS later Robert was murdered. WE WERE REELING!!!! My GOD!!!! The 1960s were TERRIBLE. It was the decade of political assassinations and massive coverups!!! When the movie JFK came out Oliver Stone wanted the investigation reopened. It was. But after a short time the JUSTICE DEPARTMENT sealed the records. RESEALED THEM. Their excuse was that the information itself posed a significant THREAT TO NATIONAL SECURITY!!! What was in those papers??? The records were sealed and are NOT to be reopened until 2039!!! my god.....

This storytelling is chronically all over the place

I thought Eunice was married to Shriver…not Patricia

What about the daughter the old man made have a lobotomy??! Not much said about that

Theodore Roosevelt did not appoint Joe Kennedy to any position. FDR did. How can you expect your audience to take you seriously if you don't even know American history? Tighten up.

That's how life goes on.

They are most definitely cursed so many tradageis

Im reading this cause i think my family is going thru something we have to break.

Johnson 23:00 is 🔥

The fire and Snowy wind are similar.. Hypothemia.

She keeps saying Dulles but the incident happened in Dallas. Dallas Texas. When she says Dulles it makes me think of Washington DC/ Dulles airport here in Washington DC/Virginia

Too great a sweep of history…it needs review

Johnson behind it

R.I.P. brave souls
