[@awesomedude584]

Heartbreaking to hear her voice cracking with emotion. She has been to too many funerals. RIP Teddy, Jack, Jackie, Bobby and John Jr.

[@benschlechter]

And sadly, like Robert Todd Lincoln, she's the only presidential child to live to old age.

[@andrebond678]

She been through enough losing her father at young age almost 6 and without a father when she became a adult and the assassins who took her father life he going to see justice with God and that inexcusable for taking someone life for no reason and taken Caroline father away from her and the nation and I see why that she showing emotional and shed tears when she had her moments and also she did a interview and say she miss her father and thinking about him each day all because of the stupidity and inexcusable act did by that coward assassin and the nation still hurt and angry and Caroline still angry too.

Can you imagine how difficult it is to be in her life? All her direct family members and her uncle Ted have passed on.

[@kdtennis1]

Her mom ( Jacqueline Onassis) married a Greek Man ( Ari Onassis)worth 500 Million in 1968. Her life has been easier than 99.5% of the planet Earth/ Facts!

Her heart felt love for Uncle Ted spoken with such class and dignity. Caroline, to have been under a constant microscope, has done one hell of a job not only raising her family right, but being an example for them.

[@7739299926]

I just love her- she’s a class act and so incredibly smart while being relatable. She’s amazing and I’m proud of her!

[@hectorcortez8766]

I am not sure what you find so relatable.Her grandad was a provider of alcohol during Prohibition ( Joe Kennedy). Her dad ( President Kennedy) benefitted from the sales of alcohol during Prohibition. Her mom ( Jacqueline) married a man worth many millions. Jacqueline ( married to Aristotle Onassis) got 25 million out of that marriage, and that put Caroline and John/ RIP and on easy street. I am impressed that Caroline and John / RIP both earned Law Degrees.

[@sunshinerose8717]

Caroline is beautiful, both inside & out! She's not only a wonderful loving mother, she's Extremely witty, sharp and definitely has her father's sense of humor. "Your one of the strongest Kennedy women I've known, not personally of course but we grew up in the same era of the 60s, I'm closer to John Jr's age." Your Uncle Teddy I'm sure felt the same, it seems pretty obvious you became his favorite niece.. He was proud of you. You have a lovely family and I respect you being a hands on mom who's proud of their achievements.

[@kdtennis1]

You forgot to add a rich, spoiled brat, who has never had to work to support herself. Jacqueline Onassis left her and John/ RIP about 74 Million. Please stop putting the super rich on a pedestal!

[@michaelhayden725]

We in Australia are also very proud to have her as US Ambassador.

[@tialanai9582]

The comments are such a disgrace. It amazes me how people can be so hateful towards a woman's appearance. I see a beautiful, brave, and admiring woman. Caroline is someone I would want to have the pleasure of meeting. Beautiful speech. The Kennedy's will always be highly respected by me.

Very nice and dignified, C.! After all his lost, he had that ability to love and teach You all-that's enough for ones life.

[@tarnsand]

In terms of Caroline's appearance; she has the Kennedy facial features (fair hair/blue eyes) her Mother's slim frame and a combined strength wisdom integrity and sincerity of both parents. Along with her Father's quick wit/sense of humour. Caroline has had some serious health issues and has handled them with private dignity. I for one am so proud she has not taken the cosmetic surgery route of her cousin Maria Shriver Schwarzenegger.

Caroline and Queen Elizabeth are in that tragic club of watching all your direct family members die and be left alone.

[@ravenel2]

They have their husbands and have never lost their three or four children. Losing their original family was horrible, but they have now more lovely immediate family than most people. They are just now matriarchs of the family instead of daughters.

[@oliviamack2538]

I really hope she'll run for president

[@roisindubh02]

Olivia Mack : That will never happen.

[@JStarStar00]

roisindubh02: She's had many years to think about it and decided not to. She had to be convinced to take the ambassadorship to Japan because of her reluctance to enter political life. Her window has pretty much passed now since she's in her mid-60s, I think she'll continue to be the "family spokesperson" at functions like this.

[@nazaninmaily2030]

Beautiful lady in looks and her manner. Wouldn’t wish what happened to her Dad and Uncle on her but when you see who is in the White House the Kennedy dynasty could continue with a real winner.

[@jkrasney1]

Caroline is and remains a treasure. "Sweet Caroline," indeed. Her recollection of her uncle, Teddy, and his responsibilities, which he assumed, without reservation, was remarkable. As booming of a man, Senator Edward Kennedy was, he also intentionally chose to take an incognito approach with his family. He led by example, as the patriarch, since he was the only male brother, who lived, from that extraordinary generation. I suspect for Caroline, Uncle Teddy, was more than a suricate father. Uncle Teddy brought life, alive. As Senator Kennedy expressed in his astonishing 1980 Democratic Convention speech, "...the dream will never die."

[@marietylerwiley945]

As a peer- I have always admired Caroline’s forthrightness. Today - I want to walk those same steps with her- that her uncle took her on -with one caveat; we’ll be staying at The Ritz too! 😉🙏🏻💪

This was 2 terrible things and I became very interested in politics. The third terrible was the Assassin of MLK. So I started to write to Edward Kennedy. I realize that his coworkers replied those. But they where all signed with his name I continued to write to him til I was 17. I recevid a long letter from him about his political goals. And I also got photographs of all 3 brothers Kennedy.
