Hero for our time by Ralph G Martin is a pro-President Kennedy book. My Honors year history Prof Hanyan said that every American President before a loyal President Reagan had had an affair. President Kennedy obviously loved his wife Jackie and children John John and Caroline so I am not going to dwell on the matter. In the book the Kennedy Men there is more detail about Jacks life like the fact that between 1938 and 1940 he read the book the Young Melbourne. That is a sighpost to the fact that Ambassador Joseph Kennedy and the Queen Mother may have had a child together and the young baby was possibly sent to the Melbourne Ontario, Glencoe Ontario area. Today in Melbourne there is the Democrat Restaurant on Queen Street. Ambassador Kennedy was a Democrat appointed by Democrat President Roosevelt and Queen street could be a reference to the Queen Mother. In Glencoe Ontario there is the Embassy Restaurant and the Palace Restaurant. Ambassador Kennedy could represent the Embassy and the Queen Mother could represent the Palace. My Mother is from Glencoe Ontario and was born in April 1940. She has considered the possibility that Ambassador Joseph Kennedy and the Queen Mother had a child together. My Mom looks like the Queen Mother a lot too and has freckles to prove that she has a Scottish past. That could explain why British and American Intelligence Officers have been walking up to me and saying things since 1999. One of them knew the name of the British spy book I read in public school. I think its possible to help America Britain and Canada at the same time. President Kennedy defended freedom of speech and the rights of people to have controversial ideas so please do not delete this review. Like this author on November 22 please remember President Jack Kennedy.
