Rupert Cornwell in the Independent gives a glowing tribute to Senator Edward Kennedy’s life and achievements.

Maybe he should have included his thoughts on the evidence from the KGB archives that Kennedy tried to work with the Soviet Communists to stop President Reagan being re-elected in 1984?

A stunning story, so damning to Kennedy and his vast reputation that the ‘mainstream media’ have studiously ignored it?

Buy The Crusader: Ronald Reagan and the Fall of Communism to read what appears to be the fullest account of the matter currently available. Ed Driscoll’s podcast interview with the author Paul Kengor is also fascinating.
