家园 buddy, you did not know US

还是大萧条后罗斯福的财政部长,制定了和执行了金融管制制度。

--财政部长? or just SEC chairman? you need to get your facts straight first. FDR strongly disliked Joseph Kennedy due to his political ambition and Irish background, that's why he was later distanced to the British ambassador position in London.

肯尼迪家族的实力当时远远强于现在的布什家族。老布什虽贵为总统,但他的家族在石油集团中就是一个伙夫级别的角色,完全不处于决策层的核心,和肯尼迪家族在美国金融业的地位是不能比的。

--Kennedy is an Irish name. For any Chinese student who lived in States before, he or she will tell you many stories about the sufferings of Irishmen when immigrated to America. Kennedy family represents the Irish immigrant community in New England (esp., in Massachusetts, but not in NY state).

Irish people were excluded from the center of power by the WASP elites. That's commmon sense in America. JFK is the first Irish president in U.S. history. Both Joseph and JFK are graduates from Harvard and they both faced unfair treat back in Harvard.

和肯尼迪家族在美国金融业的地位是不能比的。

--totally the opposite. Bush family has ancester who co-signed the Mayflower Pact. The fact itself indicates the history and influence of that name. G.H.W.Bush(the senior) was from New England WASP family and had great trouble fitting into the cowboy Texas culture. His son mixed well with those Texas rednecks and started political career there.

Common sense in America: you can have an Irish Catholic president, but the key position, such as CIA Director, must be in the hand of protestant WASP elites. You can check Bush senior's history and saw who was the former CIA director in 1970s...

To be frank, even today, Kennedy family is still marginalized with influence only in New England.

There are many cultural/history stuff that you can only rumors and then speculate. I was very disappointed by this misleading post.
