The Importance of a Wife in the Kennedy Family

Jack Kennedy was pretty uninterested in getting married. He wasn't in love with anyone, so why shouldn't he go on business as usual? I'll tell you why, because his father told him it was time. You're 35 and all the Kennedys obeyed their father as if he were a king. A single man is going to hit a wall dude. So chop chop that Jackie Bouvier you've been bringing around. That's perfect. She knows all these important people. She was Deb of the year. She knows how to dress. She's a lady. But she held her own in this family. Not every woman could survive in the Kennedy family.
