On What Is Owed Caroline Kennedy

America has failed to live up to its promise, having failed Caroline Kennedy. We took her father away from her, it is said, and it was churlish indeed to deny her a seat in the Senate.
But doesn’t this ignore Aristotle Onassis?
Henry Kissinger was once asked, “what would have happened had it been Nikita Khrushchev who was assassinated, and not John Kennedy?” “Vell!,” answered Kissinger. “That is a hypothetical question, and such questions are quite pointless. It is silly to speculate about such things. Who can know what might have happened in such a case? But since you have asked me, there is one thing of which we can be certain. Had Nikita Khrushchev been assassinated and not John Kennedy, Aristotle Onassis would not have married Nina Khrushchev.”
