Tom Kocurko wonders why former Sen. Ted Kennedy, now deceased, and former President Bill Clinton are admired so much by the Democratic Party, considering their personal behavior (Letters, Sunday).
Simple. They truly care(d) about other Americans, especially those who need a helping hand. They are/were concerned about all of their countrymen, not just those who belonged to their party, those who could contribute to their campaigns or those who could make them wealthy.
They may have had flaws, but they are/were strong humanitarians, advocating for everyone regardless of race, religion, gender or sexual orientation. We need a lot more like them.
