Kennedy family

The Kennedys are a former American political dynasty that have since become prominent in politics, diplomacy, business, entertainment, and philanthropy across the United Republics, American Havana, and the Franco-British Union. The Kennedy family consists of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy and his wife Rose, and their nine children:

 * Sean Cinnéide (1917-2002)- WFRA officer, jurist, and later Chairman of the Supreme Revolutionary Tribunal
 * Rosemary Kennedy (1918-2008)- Advocate and teacher for special needs people in the UASR, protege of Helen Keller
 * Kathleen Kennedy-Rockefeller (1920-2000)- Socialite, author, and columnist
 * Eunice Kennedy Pratt (1921-2009)- Philanthropist, diplomat for Cuba
 * Patricia Kennedy-Burton (1924-2006)- Hollywood director and producer, defector (with husband Richard Burton)
 * Robert F. Kennedy (1925-1979)- President of American Havana (1963-1971)
 * Jean Ann Kennedy (1928-)- Americuban Ambassador to Ireland (1988-1996)
 * Edward Moore "Ted" Kennedy (1932-2009)- Businessman, owner of The Kennedy Group (in turn, owners of Daily Mirror, MGM, Global News, Maxwell Publishing, and Galaxy)

History
The dynasty began with Irish American PJ Kennedy's election to the Massachusetts House of Representatives in 1884. His son, Joseph P. Kennedy made several incredibly profitable ventures in business, real estate, alcohol, and entertainment, becoming a multi-millionaire on Wall Street and co-founding RKO among other ventures. He would also marry Rose Fitzgerald, daughter of the Boston mayor, in 1914, and would have 9 children.

Joe would parley this success in business into an attempted political career, by supporting Huey Long for President during the 1932 United States Elections and later MacArthur's coup following Norman Thomas's victory (prompted both times by his friend Charles Coughlin). Kennedy and most of his family would flee with Douglas MacArthur to Cuba following the Red victory in the Second American Civil War, and continued to expand his political capital, culminating in his appointment as Deputy Secretary of State, and later Secretary of the Interior.

Meanwhile, his son John and daughter Rosemary were left on the mainland, believed dead. John had been left at his Connecticut private boarding school (where he had helped the revolution in a small way), and Rosemary was left in a convent which was converted to a Trinitarian children's creche. John (changing his name to its Gaelic form Sean Cinnéide) would later join the Red Guards, and go into West Point. He would also reconnect with his sister, who would be transferred to a special needs school in DeLeon-Debs

News of John's conversion to socialism prompted his brother Joe to defect to Nazi Germany, where he would become commander of the notorious Silberne Legion of American Nazi sympathizers. He would also advise the George Washington Brigade of Americubans supporting the Nationalists in the Spanish Civil War.

Joe's political influence would decline through the late 30's and early 40's, partly because of his sons' respective defections, but primarily because of his strong isolationism and rumored anti-Semitism (both of which became politically toxic following Cuba's entry into World War II). In 1943, shortly before Douglas MacArthur's declaration of war, Kennedy was demoted to serve as ambassador to Britain, as part of a "reorganization".

Now exiled to the periphery of MacArthur's circle, Kennedy began to pin his political hopes onto young Robert Kennedy (serving in Brazil). He also began building ties with influential individuals like Jack Warner and Meyer Lansky to help rebuild political capital for Bobby to seize on.
